Ninety-three dogs have been saved from a faeces-filled house that rescuers describe as the "worst case" they have seen in 20 years. The poor pooches, which included dachshunds, labradors and French bulldogs, poodles and Bichon Frise, were seized by Gwent Police, and the owner has been prosecuted by the RSPCA.
Inspector Darren Oakley was appalled by the dogs' living conditions, describing it as "one large disgusting kennel". In his statement presented to court, he said: "The conditions inside the house were horrendous; the floors were covered in faeces with dogs in cages living in their own filth. Every room contained more dogs and pups, the whole house had become one large disgusting kennel. The smell and sights were clearly having an affect on the police who were in attendance."
