Officers seized them from the home and hurried them to an emergency veterinarian. They both needed to be thoroughly bathed to remove all the tar coating their fur.

“Both dogs are resting comfortably and are no longer in any pain.  Their conditions are still guarded, so they will remain in the hospital for the next few days so they can receive 24 hour veterinary care.”

Now the shelter needs help caring for them.  They have taken in so many other special cases recently that their funds have been exhausted.  If you can spare even a dollar to help these poor tar-covered dogs, please click here, or text HumaneHelp to 41444.

AHS is currently unaware of whether or not police will be pressing charges, but they are hopeful that a full investigation will be conducted.
