"Horrific": 68 dogs rescued from Winnipeg home in province's largest animal seizure

The Winnipeg Humane Society went from having 29 dogs to nearly 100 overnight after a major animal seizure from a home in Winnipeg's Richmond West neighbourhood on Wednesday. According to the Humane Society, it’s the largest seizure in the province’s history — and was happened upon by what seems like chance. “Police were on site regarding another issue and discovered this condition,” said Leland Gordon, general manager of animal services with the City of Winnipeg. Police confirmed it was a well-being check in the 100 block of Brentlawn Boulevard. “There was a horrific stench of urine, feces, (with) lots of puppies in there,” said Gordon, adding responding animal services officers wore hazmat-type suits to rescue the dogs, which Gordon said had gone through trauma.
