Deplorable conditions at a property in Tienen, Belgium.

Thanks to an intensive cooperation of an inspector of the Getevallei police zone, several shelters and the inspection of the Animal Welfare Service, a building with animals in Tienen could be visited for a re-inspection. What the services saw there surpassed all horror. 32 scrawny dogs were crammed together with no food and no water. One animal appeared to have already died. They were Anatolian Shepherds, Turkish Mountain Dogs and a Border Collie. The animals found huddled together in fear. 

The owners were already known to the authorities, which allowed them to recheck and confiscate the animals. They will now receive the care they deserve and once they have recovered from neglect, they will be waiting for a golden basket.
