Animal Rescue Corps (ARC) says it happened on two trash-strewn properties in Newton, MS. Responders found dozens of dogs chained outdoors to trees, trapped in outdoor cages, camping tents, and some running loose. More than 12 dead and decomposing carcasses were found in cages and scattered around. Many of the chained dogs appear to have serious dental damage, ground and missing teeth, presumably from chewing at their chains to free themselves.
