The woman neglected dogs in her home in Västerbotten. During a check two years ago, a puppy was euthanized and 16 animals were taken into care. Now the Umeå district court sentences the woman to a suspended sentence for animal cruelty, reports P4 Västerbotten. No fine is imposed, which the district court explains by the fact that the woman suffered from mental illness.
When the county administrative board in Västerbotten did its inspection in the woman’s home, the floors were filled with the dogs’ urine and feces. One of the dogs had a mammary tumor, but had not received veterinary care.
