Almost 200 dogs were rescued from a New Jersey home on June 11 in what authorities say was a “massive hoarding situation.”

Police sources told NBC that the dogs—many who were pregnant or had masses and infections—were rescued from a home of a prominent breeder, who had previously won awards from the Westminster Kennel Club. The specific location of the home was not disclosed.
