Harris County Constable Precinct 1 said\u00a0deputies responded to the\u00a09900 block of Edgeworth Street where they found the dogs\u00a0in a “rancid” living environment. Many were pink and hairless from infections and other diseases.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThe conditions were terrible. The odor was overwhelming,\u201d said Precinct 1 Constable Alan Rosen in a news release. \u201cNo dog should have to live like that. This is one of the largest dog seizures that we have seen in a home.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Houston\u00a0SPCA partnered with the law enforcement agency to rescue the dogs and is providing them with veterinary care. One dog was in critical condition when deputies arrived and received immediate care.<\/p>\n
Authorities also seized four chickens and a pig.<\/p>\n
No suspect has been detained or charged in relation to the animals, but an investigation is ongoing. Detectives will later review the case with prosecutors to determine whether criminal charges are warranted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Harris County Constable Precinct 1 said\u00a0deputies responded to the\u00a09900 block of Edgeworth Street where they found the dogs\u00a0in…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":458646,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[56,58,57],"class_list":["post-458645","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-houston","tag-houston","tag-houston-headlines","tag-houston-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/458645","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=458645"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/458645\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/458646"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=458645"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=458645"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=458645"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
