BC SPCA swoops in after call from citizen about poor living conditions for the dogs

Seven dogs are recovering under the care of the BC SPCA after they were seized from a property in Cherryville, east of Lumby.

Included in the seizure were a pair of four-year-old standard poodles, a five-year-old Australian shepherd, a four-year-old cocker spaniel, and three, five-month-old Australian shepherd poodle mix puppies.

The BC SPCA was alerted to the dogs after a call from a concerned citizen about the living conditions for the pooches.
