Tattie

My story

Tattie is 7 months old and 36 lbs. She is a sweet puppy who is bit unsure about life. She has grown up in rescue. She is part of a litter of 7 from a hoarding case in Butler County. Her mom Marinda is also in the rescue. Details of hoarding case: Sheriff Richard K. Jones reports that Butler County Sheriff’s Office has arrested Ronda Murphy, age 60, on two counts of M2 Cruelty to a Companion Animal and one count of F5 Cruelty to a Companion Animal. She is currently housed in the Middletown Jail pending an arraignment hearing. As this investigation continues to unfold, more charges may be filed. Murphy was charged after Deputy Dog Wardens began an investigation and seized both living and deceased dogs at an animal rescue she ran in Madison Township. Ms. Murphy was operating a dog rescue under the name Helping Hands for Furry Paws. Investigation revealed that both adult dogs and puppies were being housed in various structures on two Madison Township properties owned by Murphy. Deputy Dog Wardens, Investigators and Deputies conducted searches at both properties and found the animals in “the most horrible conditions ever seen”. Remains of deceased canines were located refrigerators/freezers and other locations on the properties in varying states of decomposition. One garage housed dogs in cages with no ventilation or air conditioning, with measured indoor temperatures of almost 90 degrees. Numerous animals were housed together in cages filled with urine, fecal matter, with no food or water. Other cages contained mothers and newborn puppies. Tattie is now fully vetted and ready for her forever home. She would do best with a doggy playmate and need a secure fenced yard. She is crate trained. Freds Mission Rescue has an adoption radius of 100 miles from Cincinnati. All dogs are fully vetted, altered, current on flea/tick/heartworm/wormer, and microchipped. The rescue does not adopt out to properties with invisible fences or tie outs. Application: https://form.jotform.com/FredsMission/app
