MORE: Once emaciated doe, Marvin is recovering
Just his week, the deputy dog wardens rescued a puppy hit by a train that is now being cared for at the humane society on Princeton Road.
In the past several years, the office has investigated and charged several people with felony abuse to companion animals and many others with the misdemeanor charge.
Last week, a Middletown woman pleaded guilty to misdemeanor cruelty to a companion animal after she turned her severely emaciated dog into an animal rescue. Joseph’s Legacy, a local animal rescue, received a canine on Feb. 12, that was so severely emaciated they had to report the dog and its condition to the dog warden’s office.
The dog has gained nearly 40 pounds with proper care and will soon be up for adoption.
“We have had enough of these and it is time to stop,” the sheriff says in the video.
