The Sheriff's Department noted in the post that they can't give out much information about the situation right now as it is still an ongoing investigation. After a search warrant was served,  Animal Control seized 33 dogs from a location in the southwest area of Putnam County.

32 were German Shepherds and 1 Rottweiler.

Dr. Jason Huff with West Central Veterinary Services was called on scene and took three of the dogs that were in the worst conditions. He is currently working hard to try and save them. It should be known that Dr. Huff has graciously donated his time and funding (The required treatment is VERY expensive) to help try and save these little guys.

Many of the other dogs have been taken to Indiana GSD & Siberian Husky Rescue, Inc for foster care. Inmate workers also worked very hard constructing the temporary shelters needed to house the dogs still at our animal shelter.

As of Saturday, most of the dogs were doing MUCH better. They are up and running around and being much more vocal. Crews from all over spent Saturday cleaning the dogs up and treating any conditions.

Thanks to the many generous donations from local citizens they have clean kennels and lots of food now. Putnam County Animal Control and the Humane Society are still working to find foster placement for many of the dogs.
