Save 14 Abused Dogs
Judith Frazier was charged with 14 counts of animal cruelty and is fighting to get her dogs back. The conditions these animals lived in were terrible, along with the condition of the animals themselves. They were covered in urine and feces, matted to the skin, had VERY long nails, and other medical problems. These dogs are now in loving foster homes, where the are being housebroken, socialized, and given proper medical care. Many of the foster homes are hoping to keep these dogs, please sign the petition to make sure she does not get these dogs back. The court date has been moved to Oct. 25, 2006. Not many people have sent letters to the court, we REALLY need people to show up on the court date and to send letters. We are a very small rescue organization, and we are hoping to get more people to support this time around.
"Rescuers find 14 dogs in 2 rooms" Record-Journal By Jennifer Manes
assinar petiçãoassinar petiçãoMERIDEN- The stench of urine and feces wafted from a Collins Avenue home Monday. Inside, 14 dogs lived, confined to two rooms. The animals slept in damp and moldy beds, drank discolored water and ate off a dirt-covered floor.
Sgt. Joyce Hoff entered the home Monday after police received complaints from neighbors detailing the deplorable conditions inside. The dogs' home was dreadful it stunned a seasoned animal rescue worker.
"It was pretty appalling," said Patricia Futoma, of Southington's Pawtectors Animal Rescue Organization. "There was urine and feces everywhere. (The dogs) were matted and unkempt. Their nails were atrocious. Some of them even had nails that curled around. It was horrifying... It's probably one of the worst I've seen."
Hoff removed several Pomeranians and a Japanese Chin from 111 Collins Ave. and brought them to Meriden Animal Hospital,where they were treated. Groomers shaved many of the dogs, whose fur was so badly matted that it caused sores.
"They were matted to the point where they started to bleed," Hoff said. "It pulls the fur right off."
The dogs were placed in temporary custdy, Hoff said. The dogs' owner Judith Frazier, 59 was arrested at work and charged with 14 counts of animal cruelty, six counts of unlicensed dogs and failure to submit prints.
Neighbors said the dogs frequently could be heard crying from inside the house. They rarely went outdoors. The neighbors did not want to give their names. Building officials visited the house Monday afternoon and determined it was unfit to live in. A city worker nailed a piece of plywood across the front door. A woman standing outside the residence would not comment. It was the second time in two years that police have arrested Frazier on animal cruelty charges. In July 2004, she was charged with 11 counts of animal cruelty to animals.
