| 'Animal Rescue' gone wrong... So did these people really think they were "saving" the dogs from a worse outcome...  The picture is horrifying.Five family members were arrested after authorities found a 1-year-old and 58 dogs living in filthy conditions inside a Texas home, MyFoxDFW reports. Authorities say 48-year-old Teresa Weldon allegedly got as many as 200 dogs over the course of two years from local shelters by claiming to run an animal rescue operation.

| I don't get it. I have dogs. Dogs sometimes have accidents. I've come home and one of the dogs has had explosive poo. I feel bad because they can't hold it. I understand that. As soon as I open the door, I KNOW.  Oh god I know.  This is only one day and a pile or two of poo from a dog with an upset tummy. The smell makes me gag. It makes mini me  She will choose to sit outside until I clean it and deodorize it. How do people live in a house that is totally covered in shiat? I would die from anorexia because I would puke and gag and never keep food down. How do they do it? Is it really possible to actually get used to the smell of shiat? |

| It is called hoarding.. it is on TV all the time. And if a shelter can get rid of a dog, no questions asked, they will. Way too many animals in shelters and not enough homes. I know of a couple of so called "rescues" that have a couple of borderline hoarders in their group. Sad, but the reality is there.
