f year.

Last summer, the Animal Humane Society investigated reports of a large
+ number of dogs on the property and found dozens of dogs — mostly
small breed mixes — living in the home, garage and a pole building.
At the time, the owners said they would "re-home the majority of the
dogs." A few months later, the dogs and their owners were found at a
home in Maplewood, and before a search warrant could be obtained, they
were moved again to Sandstone.
The Animal Humane Society said the dogs were living in unsanitary
conditions, were dirty and had matted hair.
In February, the couple surrendered 53 dogs to the Animal Humane
Society, many of which have already found new homes. On Wednesday,
the couple surrendered another 42 dogs.
