Dozens of dogs looking for new homes after Andover animal rescue
GOLDEN VALLEY, Minn. — Dozens of dogs are looking for new homes after being saved from a Minnesota animal rescue.
The Animal Humane Society is caring for 30 dogs connected to a rescue in Andover.
Anoka County Sheriff’s deputies served a search warrant there last week after eight dogs were found dead near Cottage Grove this month.
Deputies believe the dogs died at the rescue.
“In this profession there’s a lot of sadness,” said Tierney Peters with the Sheriff’s Office. “Of course [our deputies are] human beings, and many of them are dog lovers themselves. It’s difficult of course.”
The Humane Society says 22 dogs were taken from the rescue and eight were brought in from foster homes.
The city of Andover has deemed the animal rescue uninhabitable.
