Sheriff’s Office Investigating Dead Dogs Displayed on Tri State Rd.

Update – According to Sheriff Prince the dogs were not intentionally killed. They died from parvo.

This morning we took one of the puppies to a very experienced, local veterinarian, to be examined. His examination revealed the puppy probably died of parvo. A disease that will kill a whole litter of puppies. All of these dogs appeared to be puppies, from the same litter. It is wrong that they were just dumped on the side of Tri-State Rd, but they were not intentionally killed. It would cost around $200.00 to send the puppy off to have an absolute determination. This vet is very experienced and felt I felt it would be a waste of county taxpayers money, to send the puppy off. I would hope in the future this person would did a small grave to bury his or her dogs, if something like this ever happens again!
