Chihuahuas Seized by Humane Officer



As part of a recent humane investigation, six Chihuahuas, varying in age from young to 12-13 years old, male and female, were seized and signed over to the Bradford County Humane Society in Ulster. These six dogs are in very poor shape, needing immediate vet care especially for their teeth as shown in the photos. The teeth were neglected to the point that they grew out in a deformed way, making eating difficult and creating sores in their mouths that are painful. One of the dogs has a heart issue that will need to be addressed.

These Chihuahuas do not have any training, are not familiar with leashes and do not know any commands. They are however, lovable animals, but are confused about where they are and leery of new people.

They are scheduled for emergency surgery on their teeth this week at the Milan Vet Clinic. Their vet bills will be extensive and BCHS is asking for assistance for their care.
For questions on these dogs, please call BCHS at 570-888-2114.
