10 dead dogs found in Savannah home

By Savannah Morning News
Animal control officers have filed charges against a Savannah man after finding 19 dogs abandoned in his home.

Gena Sullivan, Savannah-Chatham police spokeswoman, said officers were sent to a house on 6902 Howard Foss Drive after a neighbor called Animal Control. She walked in the neighborhood and had noticed a bad smell and did not think anyone had lived in the house for some time, but could hear dogs barking.

Over a span of a week or two police officers had responded to the home a couple of times. They discovered a dead animal in a wood line near the residence and assumed the smell the neighbor was complaining about was coming from it. On Tuesday, Animal Control officers responded to the residence and could see the conditions inside of the house because the dogs had ripped the curtains down.

It was obvious to them nobody was living there.

Stick him in jail and let him starve for a while. He looks like he could use it.

It's a mental illness. This nutbar thought he was taking dogs off the street and giving them a place to live, saving them. Food, water and medical care don't often enter a hoarder's mind which is why most hoarded animals are sick, dying or dead.

It's also really hard to treat, so somebody is going to have to take the responsibility of monitoring this joker for the rest of his life to make sure he doesn't do it again.
