50 Rottweilers and other dogs rescued in Watauga animal cruelty case
SUMMARY: More than 50 dogs, including Rottweilers, were rescued from a home in Watauga, Texas, where they were found living in filthy conditions. Some were malnourished and kept in overcrowded, unsanitary kennels. The home was connected to an animal rescue, but the situation was deemed one of the worst animal cruelty cases seen by authorities. A criminal investigation is underway, with charges expected soon. Police discovered the animals after an adult was severely bitten by a dog. The animals have been removed, and Fort Worth Animal Care and Control is working with rescue groups to find them homes.

Nearly 50 Rottweilers and other animals were rescued from an alleged animal cruelty situation involving a rescue organization in Watauga earlier this month.
