Animal Cruelty Seizure
Houston Humane Society Needs Help Locating Suspect in Possible Animal Cruelty and Abandonment Case

The Houston Humane Society needs the community’s help locating a suspect, or suspects, in a tragic case of abandonment and neglect. The Houston Humane Society initially received a report from a concerned citizen regarding a dog abandoned in a vacated home in the 200 block of Taranto. When an animal cruelty officer responded, a large puppy was found in an uninhabited house. Upon arrival, the officer found the dog resting on a heap of filthy laundry. The canine was immediately brought to the Houston Humane Society’s Animal Wellness Clinic so she could get the veterinary care she urgently needs.

Officers now need the public’s help to bring the owner of the animals to justice. If anyone has any information, please contact the Houston Humane Society at 713-433-6421, by email at deputy@houstonhumane.org, or online: http://www.houstonhumane.org/cruelty/report-cruelty.
