FINALLY! Animal cruelty charges have been filed today against a Los Angeles area rescuer. One of the animals removed from the property was a cocker spaniel that had chewed its own foot down to the exposed bone (photos are on Stand Up Against Reckless Rescue, but be warned, they are graphic and quite upsetting) on.fb.me/1ABXdSu Here are some details on the charges filed earlier today: losangeles.cbslocal/2014/11/07/couple-charged-with-animal-cruelty-neglect-after-93-dogs-found-living-in-arleta-home/ When animal control arrived in July, the woman tried to flee with a hot RV (it was triple digits heat outside) stuffed with animals in cages and was then found trying to hide the dogs at the vet where her boyfriend works (Valley Animal Hospital in Van Nuys, CA). Sadly, this sort of rescue is becoming more and more common. Please be careful where you donate and send money to. If a rescue seems to be rescuing volumes and volumes of animals, you must ask questions. Where are these animals all going? How are they being cared for? Ask for photos and follow ups for any animal you have donated to. Press for transparency to flush scam artists out into the open. This blog post below is so well written and really captures the problem. Please dont feed the hoarder
