More than 130 dogs were removed from a home north of Winnipeg on Aug. 1.
The Winnipeg Humane Society (WHS) reported the news on Tuesday, saying it is working with the Office of Provincial Veterinarian-Animal Welfare (OPV-AW) to provide shelter and care for these animals.
According to the province, animal protection officers removed 137 dogs, who were in distress, living in unsanitary conditions and needed medical care. It notes that no dog was euthanized.
This incident occurred only three months after more than 60 Maltese dogs had been removed from a Winnipeg home.
The WHS notes it is currently on an intake freeze as it currently has 611 animals in care, including 281 in the shelter itself.
The OPV-AW is investigating the situation and is working with partners to provide temporary housing for the animals. The WHS said no further information, photos or video will be released at this time.
Anyone with knowledge of an animal welfare concern is asked to contact the province’s animal care line at 204-945-8000.
