HOUSTON -- The Houston SPCA rescued 20 dogs from a home in Galena Park Thursday.

Many of the animals were in bad shape because they hadn't eaten in days.


The owner of the dogs has been in jail since last Friday when he was arrested on assault charges.

Now he faces a charge of animal abuse.

The man will have a chance to get his dogs back when he goes before a judge on that charge.

what did these animals ever do to this man that would deserve what he did to them. animals love us unconditional even if we starve them. they dont know the difference. as human beings we have a responsibility to take care of our animals and nurchure them. people who cant take of their animals should let people take them who can. but if you keep your animal and harm or neglect them then you should be locked up so that you can feel what it feels like to be in a cage. if for some reason you get overwhelmed then there are organazations that can help. i hope the laws that we abide by can find reason to give this person what he actually deserves.
thanks for listening

This a unfortunate incident for both the owner and the animals involved. The animals are dependent on the owner which was jailed. The owner should have had someone that would be charged with checking on his animals if he were not able to. The owner may not have thought he would ever be away. If you were a single parent of teenagers and happened to be separated from them for some circumstance and there was no one in the area to check on them...should you have things said to judge you as harshly? Think about it, if you can't help the problem then don't talk like you have a right to condemn.
