ON OR ABOUT APRIL 17 2025 ANIMAL RESCUE FOLLOWING DRUG ARREST IN LOCAL HOME IN JENNERSTOWN SOMERSET COUNTY PA Earlier today, a law enforcement agency arrested a male and female suspect for drug possession and probation violations. During the arrest, officers discovered six severely neglected dogs inside the home. According to reports, the animals were visibly emaciated, with bones clearly showing through their skin. Our Humane Police Unit was immediately notified and responded to the scene. In total, six dogs, one parrot, and one cat were rescued from the property. All animals were safely transferred to Abby’s Rescue, where they are now receiving proper care and medical attention. The condition of the animals suggests long-term neglect and cruelty. An active investigation is underway to determine the full extent of the abuse and hold those responsible accountable. Meanwhile, thanks to the quick response from law enforcement and humane officers, these animals are now safe and on the road to recovery.
