In North Norwich, New York, a couple faces animal cruelty charges for abandoning their Beagle and her three puppies, reports the Binghamton Homepage.
Arrested by the New York State Police on Sunday, were Brittany Waldruff, 26, and Derrick Waldruff, 24, after the Norwich Dog Control Officer responded to a call about abandoned dogs in a home off of State Route 12. The dogs were left in an upstairs locked apartment without food or water after the couple were evicted. When discovered, the six-week-old puppies as well as their mother were dehydrated.
The couple have been charged with four counts of misdemeanor cruelty to animals and are scheduled to appear in court on September 14.
The dogs are now all in the care of Compassionate Care Veterinary in Norwich. According to the veterinarian staff, two of the puppies and their mother will be available for adoption in a few weeks. To help with their expenses, donations can be made to the “Angel Fund” in care of M&T Bank, 118 NY Route 320, Norwich, New York.

Low life white trash. Who locks their residence and leaves forever, knowing that a mama dog and her puppies are there and can’t survive on their own? People who don’t deserve to be breathing air, that’s who.
charge them mistreatment of kids also.the dogs are 4 legged kids wearing fur.jail them and before jailing them make them pay for the up keep of the mommy dog and babies also.
These two are ” total drug addicts” they can’t take care of themselves!!!! Just take one look at their eyes and their skin is enough to tell they have some pretty serious issues… They probably spent all their money of ‘COKE” “CRACK” & “METH” couldn’t pay their rent!!!! They need to spend a few years in the PEN!!!! Lucky the dogs were found in time to save them NO thanks to these MORONS!
These two are sociopathes. They get evicted and lock a mum and her puppies in the house, deserves a jail term or better yet house arrest with strict drug testing, as it looks like these two look like they are dealing with serious addiction and need help,
