Abused, Sick Dogs Left At Bainbridge Animal Rescue

 

BAINBRIDGE ISLAND, Wash. —

A group of dachshunds, which may be rejects from a puppy mill, were dropped off at a Bainbridge Island rescue facility.

Six dachshunds, all with serious health issues, were dropped off at the Furrytale Farm over the weekend. Rescue manager Suzannah Sloan said the dogs were dropped off by a woman who claimed she'd found them in Mason County.

Sloan said she believes they came from a puppy mill.

"Oh there's no question. They have all been bred and bred and bred and bred," Sloan said.

The four female dogs and two males also all show signs of neglect. Some dogs have tumors on their body and Sloan said she doesn’t know if they can be saved.

"They have mammary tumors; they have ovarian tumors,” Sloan said.

Anyone with information about a dachshund puppy mill, or for information to help rehabilitate or adopt one of these dogs, check out their Web site: The Furrytale Farm

Furrytale Farm provides care for animals ranging from potbellied pigs to horses and dozens of dogs.
