30 Sick, Dirty Puppies Found Abandoned in Upstate Field
|
CONCORD, N.Y. (AP/1010 WINS) -- Animal welfare officials want to know who abandoned more than two dozen sick and filthy puppies in a western New York field.
The Erie County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals says 30 dogs were found Sunday in the rural town of Concord, 25 miles south of Buffalo. Another puppy was found dead.
A passenger riding in a car driven by the local animal control officer noticed the dogs running in a field along a road.
The terriers and mixed-breed puppies were rounded up and taken to an animal shelter where they were cleaned up and treated by veterinarians.
SPCA officials suspect the dogs were bred at a puppy mill.
