Sherrifs Rescue Dog Frozen to Ground

6. Guess not. Article says no charges filed yet. But both dogs were taken to the Humane Society.

No food, water and tied up where it couldn't get out of its own feces, they were apparently left to die.

Those people should not be allowed to own any more pets. And if they have kids, that should be checked into as well, but it may not be.

Sad thing is, in some areas, and I've seen it myself, such animals are legally regarded as livestock to be disposed as one sees fit no matter how barbaric or sadistic. Property rights and all of that...

IDK if this is a rural area, but police response indicates a suburb or small town with a government. Kudos to the neighbor who called the police and their response.

I've lived in rural areas where there were no shelters or city government and if neighbors called the county sheriff office for help, they were regarded as hysterical nuisance calls. The law does not protect animals in places like that.

Good luck to the dogs and may they find a civilized family to take them in.
