Nearly 100 dogs rescued from home in Fort McMurray, Alta.

Fort McMurray, Alberta - In a single operation, bylaw officers in northern Alberta rescued 97 small-breed dogs from a residence. The dogs, ranging in size from small to toy breeds, were found living inside the home during a search warrant executed by the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo on Tuesday. Charges are pending against an individual present at the property.

The rescued canines are currently in the care of the Fort McMurray SPCA, awaiting adoption. The municipality emphasized the importance of reporting animal welfare concerns and urged pet owners to consider rehoming if they are unable to care for their animals.
