DEARBORN, Mich. – Police on Friday found about 150 dead dogs packed in freezers in the basement of a Michigan house littered with feces and trash where more than 110 live dogs, mostly Chihuahuas, were rescued this week.
Dearborn Police Chief Ronald Haddad said the 56-year-old man found Wednesday in the suburban Detroit home with the animals may have been living with an increasing number of dogs for up to three or four years.
"The house was in complete disarray, very cluttered and, with 100-plus dogs running around in there, very filthy," he said.
A criminal investigation was under way at the two-story brick home, Haddad said. He said the case could be forwarded to prosecutors for possible animal-cruelty charges.
Haddad said 112 live dogs had been removed from the home as of Friday, and police believe about five more may be hiding inside. He declined to release details about the breed of the dead dogs.
The man living in the house was taken to a local hospital for observation. He had no health insurance and a mental impairment that stemmed from rubella as a child, and had lived for years alone in the home after his parents retired to Florida, said lawyer James G. Schmier, who was acting as a family spokesman.
"I think this is a very human story of a guy who had some very severe mental issues," Schmier said.
Neighbors in the past had complained of an odor at the Dearborn home, which had a neatly cut lawn and manicured bushes. But this week was the first time officials got inside, and crews needed masks to breathe.
Trash was piled from floor to ceiling in places, and feces and urine was throughout the home. Forty-two ailing and feces-covered dogs were rescued Wednesday. Crews returned Thursday and found more than 60 dogs, and about 10 more were rescued Friday, police said.
The smell, noticeable from the street Thursday and Friday, may have been contained previously because windows were closed and covered.
The rescued dogs were taken to the Dearborn Animal Shelter, where residents brought dog food donations and filled out pet adoption applications. Sandra Boulton, a spokeswoman for the shelter, said the dogs were either Chihuahuas or Chihuahua mixes, and while most had long nails and fleas, they were relatively healthy.

The smell alone would probably kill me
This is like an hour and a half away from me.
But he packed the corpses in freezers? What the hell? Was he planning on eating them or something?
that's just disgusting
That's horrible. Hope the guy gets arrested or gets put back in the mental asylum.
I live 10 minutes from there and actually saw the police and shit there. Crazy people

Hehe, pretty much.

There were 112 live dogs, not 110.

I would go take some but I'm going to Chicago tomorrow
According to Google Maps I live 37 minutes away
They didn't say the street, I'd drive by and look about if they still had shit out but I don't have a street name
You must have severe mental issues if you have that many dead dogs and nearly live ones in that small house.
This sounds like a bonus level on Timesplitters.
sicko
Poor dawgies :(

Follow the link, there is a picture.
Shows how much I pay attention to the news, I live in Dearborn and haven't heard about this...sometimes ignorance is bliss.
- The dogs are born
- They procreate with sisters/brothers
- They serve as food when they die
Now you give them water and nothing can go wrong there
