Houston Humane Society Has 

Rescued 241 Animals Deplorable Conditions

 

                       

The Houston Humane Society’s R.A.I.D.E.R. team has rescued 241 Animals from a private Houston residence.For years the dogs have been living inside the residence in severely unclean and deplorable conditions.  By all accounts, the owner started out as a breeder and at some point stopped selling the animals which continued to breed indiscriminately resulting in this out of control situation. Sgts. Guerra and Schuelke of Precinct 6 and the Houston Humane Society R.A.I.D.E.R. team executed the warrant on 1-20-2011.  Animals have been brought to Houston Humane Society where medical evaluations will be conducted.

 

Monetary donations are being sought to help cover the costly medical expenses and intensive care.
