Comments about ‘Nearly 80 dogs are found in deceased man's home’

Bles these people who are willing to help these dogs.

This was not a puppy mill. This was a man living alone with a mental condition who probably saw all these dogs as family. The sad thing is that the man needed help and care and no one was there for him, not even the son who called the police to pick up the dogs. How could anyone allow their own father to live like that? I hope that there are those who are able to give care to these homeless dogs. What a tragedy that a man lived like this.

He wasn't running a puppy mill. He was an animal hoarder.

Wow, I'm sure that this man tried to care for these dogs, but 80 is about 78 too many! Ya, how could his son let him live like this, and then just call the police and say "Hey, go clean that up." Strange.... poor dogs. Hope they all find a home!

Quite clear the old man had no family support except these dogs.
His neighbors did not amount to much as I see it.
We are 70 with 4 small Dogs, They are well cared for and handled each day with hugs and kisses.
Better than any 5 year old kid in the neighborhood
We spend a small fortune on food for these boys.
They are also service Dogs.
Full of love and support.

His family did NOT visit often! (obviously) and his son DID just call animal control to remove. Some of the dogs were already dead when they arrived. One (maybe more?) of the dogs are pregnant. All dogs need to be shaved down because of matting and other skin issues. Rescue homes are DESPERATELY needed if anyone could volunteer please call the shelter in Roosevelt. Thank you!!

This was a puppy mill, I met this guy once. He claimed to be a poodle breeder. And there would be trucks that went on his property to pickup puppies all the time. He lived in the middle of no were, mountains, in Tabiona. So his neighbors are not to blame. He just didnt have the resources to care for the poodles like they should have been. I am currently fostering one and if anyone else can help out a dog these guys deserve it. Oh and his son did not live close and did not know the situation was this bad.

We just adopted two of these poodles. they are still extremly shy and need more work but they are both sleeping in seperate beds with use. neither has had a simgle accident in the house and they are using doggy doors. one still will not go up the inside stairs. and is still pretty stadofish but she follows us everywere and watches. this is to be expected, she is five years old according to the vet. They neither one know what playing is but are trying to learn.

I send this because what I am seeing this poor puupies not only deserve good loving homes but show all the signs of being wonderful members of the family when they do over come there fear.
NOTE: the male did snap once out of fear the female has shown abosulty no signs of agretion even out of fear.

I hope all the dogs are now taken care of. We have one of the males and he is great. House broke, leash trained, all the shots etc. He's become my wife's new shadow. But he also obeys when you tell him to go lay down in his bed.

Does anyone know if they are all adopted. A second one would not be a burden.
