The bodies of a mother and daughter were discovered at a dog kennel facility In Maine, prompting authorities to begin investigating the matter.

According to Maine State Police, officials responded to the Pawsitive Dog Kennel on Red Schoolhouse Road in Farmington around 10.45am on Wednesday last week.
