August 8th - Armed with an arrest warrant, Animal Control Officers of the Delaware SPCA confiscated nine adult dogs and seven puppies from Caldwell Corner, Townsend, resulting in 35 charges of cruelty to animals and related offenses. All the animals were suffering from parasites and sanitation was deplorable. What water available was old and slimy. The owner had previously been charged from cruelty in August 2000 and the case was dismissed. Those charges were reinstated along with the additional new charges.
Trial is pending.
The two year old dog named KC has completed training to become a bomb dog showing a high drive and interest in searching. KC, as name by Sgt. Brown of the Delaware City Police Department, has been called upon to regularly assist State and County police in bomb threats. My dog eats nothing but dry food, so I don't have to worry about his teeth. But it will still form.
