Two animals had already died when the animal welfare organization Pfotenhilfe intervened with the support of the police and released the dogs from their post. The completely inconsiderate woman should already be known in Villach and Salzburg, the Pfotenhilfe reported on Tuesday.
Dogs treasured by Tierqulerin
Pfotenhilfe Lochen and the Braunau police saved 12 dogs. The dogs were housed in a very small space. The owner allowed herself to vegetate there. When they were removed, two other dogs were already dead, the others in very poor condition. They were completely unkempt, their fur soaked with feces and urine. The claws indicated that they were never outdoors. The woman was stubborn and would already have the next dog.
With two animal rescue buses we transported the twelve totally abandoned dogs to us at the animal shelter, where we first had to bathe them for hours and remove the worst mats. Their fur was soaked with feces and urine and it was so matted that the skin was already very sore, “Pfotenhilfe CEO Johanna Stadler reported in a press release.
The four-legged friends had inflamed skin and bite wounds from range fights, “claws that are too long show the dogs never went outside,” Stadler said. They were cared for in a veterinary clinic, neutered, vaccinated and skinned. Two dogs even had tumors that were surgically removed.
The inconsiderate woman is currently in Hallwang in Salzburg and should already have a new dog. “The problem is that animal hoarding is a disease that generally goes undetected for too long,” Stadler explained. “Those affected believe that they cannot live without animals and they hoard as many as they can. They don’t realize that they are completely overwhelmed and that the animals are doing very badly.” She hopes that as soon as possible the woman will be permanently banned from keeping animals.
