The Humane Society of Missouri confiscated 43 Shiba Inu dogs and found nine dead dogs at a breeder in the Ozarks, the organization said Friday.
After the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office obtained a search warrant, the Humane Society’s Animal Cruelty Task Force conducted the rescue at the home.
“The living animals were severely emaciated and suffering from various injuries and health conditions, and the remains of nine deceased dogs were also found on the property and recovered,” the organization said.
The dogs are of various ages and conditions and were examined by a staff veterinarian from the Missouri Department of Agriculture, according to the organization. One of the dogs who were photographed Monday died shortly after being recovered. A Nov. 9 hearing will determine if the Humane Society will receive permanent custody of the animals. The organization did not say if anyone was arrested.

“We’re grateful to the Animal Health Division staff at the Missouri Department of Agriculture for lending assistance with this horrific and heart-wrenching rescue,” said HSMO President Kathy Warnick. “The conditions at this property amount to one of the worst cases of animal neglect we’ve seen this year. The caring citizen who tipped off the Douglas County Sheriff’s Department undoubtedly saved the lives of many of these innocent dogs and gave them a second chance at life. We’ll do everything in our power to ensure these sweet animals receive the care they need to fully recover and find loving forever homes.”
To help care for the animals, HSMO is also asking the public for assistance through donations of blankets, newspapers, dog toys, dog beds or anything else that can make these animals’ recovery more comfortable.
According to the American Kennel Club, the Shiba Inu is the most popular companion dog breed in Japan and is growing in popularity in America.
