The two other pit bulls seized by the BC SPCA are in good health as well
Three pit bulls are now in the care of the BC SPCA after animal protection officers discovered them living in a home in Kelowna infested with rats, with the floors covered in dog feces and urine.
According to Amrika Tikasingh, manager of the BC SPCA’s South Okanagan - Similkameen animal centre, Ellie, the pregnant dog, was x-rayed which showed she was in the late stages of pregnancy with a litter of 10 puppies. Henry, the adult male and Sugar, the other adult female, were determined to be healthy.
Tikasingh added that in a misguided attempt to care for some baby rats, the residents put dog food out for them, which made the problem that much worse. Tikasingh said Ellie is a good mom and the rest of the puppies are all progressing well with no health concerns.
