Animals found abandoned in grim hoarder house during rescue operation
Inside the gross hoarder home where 10 animals were rescued after being abandoned
San Diego Humane Society’s Law Enforcement rescued 13 abandoned pets, including 11 dogs and two cats, from a disused, trash-filled apartment in San Diego.
The four-day rescue operation began after a landlord reported that the tenant had been absent for several weeks.
Rescuers navigated through extensive clutter and waste to free the animals, which were found to be suffering from fleas and skin conditions.
All rescued pets have been transferred to the SDHS Oceanside campus under Emergency Boarding Status, with an investigation ongoing and the apartment remaining under observation.
