Beyond 💔 heartbreaking

Jennifer Webber, executive director of the Humane Society of Hobart, who went to the gas station to provide assistance on Thursday, said in an interview on Sunday that she was “heartbroken” by what she saw and by the conditions of the transport truck.

She said that some of the dogs died from heat stroke while “seizing and convulsing” at the scene, and that other dogs appeared to have died in their crates, which had very small water bowls.

Thankfully the Humane was able to take the five dogs who lived.

The Humane Society of Hobart said they were not allowed to help the dogs.
