In what could be the largest animal rescue operation in United States history, LA County officials seized an estimated 700 dogs and cats from a single property in the Antelope Valley on Friday morning.
The massive operation began just after 7 a.m. when authorities served a search warrant on a property in the 46000 block of 266th Street West in Lake Hughes. The Los Angeles County Department of Animal Care and Control (DACC) reported that the animals were being kept in conditions that raised serious welfare concerns, prompting immediate intervention.
