Dogs in Chester Animal Cruelty Case Up for Adoption



by KYW’s Brad Segall

Many of the dogs seized in an animal cruelty case in Chester County will go up for adoption Thursday morning at the county SPCA.

More than three hundred dogs were taken from breeder Michael Wolf during a raid by humane officers in February.  Wolf pleaded guilty to animal cruelty charges last week and now some of those dogs will be headed to new homes.

SPCA Spokesman Chuck McDevitt says some of the dogs have issues that will need to be addressed by the new owners:

“Those include house-breaking issues. Many of the animals have not walked on a leash previously. They grew up in kennels basically, so there are some socialization issues as well as medical issues.”

But he says the dogs should make great pets with a little love and some training.  Up for adoption Thursday will be 65 cavalier King Charles spaniels and 25 papillons.
