GARFIELD TOWNSHIP, MI – A Northern Michigan man is accused of animal abuse after one of his dogs was taken to an animal shelter and needed emergency medical care, WPBN/WGTU reports.
The dog appeared to have been beaten, authorities said. That prompted an investigation by Grand Traverse County animal control, which began earlier this month. Then, on Monday, an anonymous caller reported who the dog belonged to and that there were more dogs in the home.
Sheriff’s deputies went to the man’s Garfield Township home with a search warrant, the report said. Two dogs were found inside the home. Both appeared to be malnourished and abused.
The 23-year-old man was arrested for animal abuse, the report said. The 24-year-old woman was arrested for animal neglect. Their identities are being withheld pending arraignment.
