At least 31 dogs were rescued from a kennel in Texas amid floods from Hurricane Harvey—officials say the owner left them behind.
The Chambers County Sheriff’s Office said that all animals were rescued this week from the Tall Tails kennel in Hankamer via airboat.
“We rescued another 31 dogs from Tall Tail kennels today. Yesterday the kennel owner, Kevin Miller, was evacuated on the last trip the airboat made into the property. At that time he stated no other animals needed to be rescued,” the sheriff’s office said.
But Miller’s statement about “no other dogs” turned out to have holes in it, the office said.
“Miller’s partner began posting on Facebook yesterday that there were more animals to be rescued and today efforts resumed,” the office added.
