In Bedford County in the area of Everett,Pennsylvania, USA,  these poor animals have been chained for weeks and months. One dog is blind, they are all in very poor condition and in a state of immediate help. There is a dog shelter in Bedford run by very competent people and they have been willing to take the poor animals into care.

The reason why the dogs are still there in chains is because the local District Attorny Bill Higgins, will not give the shelter permission to save them. The D A claims that the dogs are OK and can continue their lives on the streets, chained, starving.
