After a mother dog and her puppies were found huddled together after being abandoned on a dirt road last week in Atascosa County, Texas, officials are searching for the culprits and say they could face charges for animal abandonment.
Atascosa County Animal Control (ACAC) received a call after a witness spotted the dog family. Animal control arrived at the scene and picked up the animals, later reporting on Facebook that the freezing weather was dangerous for the newborn pups.
