SPOKANE-- Spokane County Animal Protection Officers are investigating a potential case of animal cruelty after a woman found a dog with its face duct-taped.
Sue Olsen says she and her husband recently took in a family acquaintance, who was homeless. They allowed him and his 13 Chihuahuas to live in a trailer on their property.
Olsen says two weeks ago outside she found one of the puppies with its mouth duct taped. Pictures show the dog’s eyes and nose covered with duct tape.
“It’s cruel. It's cruel. I wanted somebody to believe me,” Olsen told KREM 2 News.
Olsen says the next day the man left her property with the dogs, leaving the trailer in ruins.
Olsen contacted county animal control officers and filed an animal cruelty complaint.
SCRAPS tells us its looking into the case but can not say much because it remains under investigation.
