Concerned Dog Leads Shelter Volunteers To Her Neglected Puppies
In Georgia, an emaciated female dog named Clover directed volunteers from an animal rescue to a home where her puppies were being neglected. Those puppies were severely malnourished and some had already died, writes blog.theanimalrescuesite.greatergood
On January 13, Ashley Gresham, 27, was arrested and is now facing six counts of aggravated animal cruelty. It took place after six dogs were found dead on her property according to an incident report from the Spalding County Sheriff’s office.
A number of animals were found dead in their cages, including a dog, two ducks, two rabbits, and a chicken. Another dog had to have his leg amputated because of a severe injury.
Two volunteers from the Royal Animal Refuge were led by Clover to the puppies. Someone had seen the emaciated female and called the shelter. When they arrived, they could not catch Clover.
“She wasn’t your typical apprehensive dog,” Rebecca Tate, the founder of Royal Animal Refuge, told CNN. “It was more like she was telling them, “Hey, just come with me.’ She kept stopping and turning around and waiting until they followed her.”
Volunteers from the nonprofit animal shelter were led to the property. It was then that they realized something was wrong when they could ‘smell death’ and contacted the Sheriff’s office.
