The latest from the HSUS.

The Humane Society of the United States assisted the Vidalia Police Department and Vidalia Animal Control in rescuing more than 20 dogs and puppies from an alleged neglect situation at a residential property in Vidalia, Louisiana.

Local authorities served a search and seizure warrant at approximately 8 a.m. on Sept. 19. The dogs were found scattered around the yard—many restrained on chains and wandering through tall, thick grass and debris. Our Animal Rescue Team found a group of six juveniles in a small fenced-in pen with a single worn tarp overhead. Many of the dogs had no apparent access to clean water, food or adequate shelter.
