Midlands Pet Rescue Helps Dogs from Puppy Mill

A Midlands pet rescue has found temporary homes for all but three puppies rescued from a puppy mill in Chesterfield County, according to reports.

The 44 dogs were brought to Pets Inc. earlier this week, according to WLTX. An Upstate woman is facing charges for animal neglect, but officials have not released her name.

The woman was breeding the puppies behind her home, keeping them in rabbit cages and selling them online, according to WLTX.

Pets Inc. is also helping find permanent homes for 12 of the dogs, according to WLTX. The others will be rehabilitated at foster homes. 

If you would like to adopt or foster one of the dogs, call Pets Inc. at 803-739-9333 or visit www.petsinc.org.
