Pierce County deputies and animal control raided a home and rescued more than 140 roosters that deputies said were bred for cock fighting.
raided what was thought to be a vacant home in Buckley on August 1. In and around the home, officers rescued more than 140 roosters that deputies said were bred, raised, trained and equipped for cock fighting.
“We care about animals just like we care about people,” Moss said. “People shouldn’t be treating animals in ways that basically amount to torture.”This is just the latest incident of animal cruelty in the last month in Pierce County. On July 18, nearly 70 puppies were rescued from a home in Lakebay. A week later more than 30 cats and kittens were rescued from another home. They are being nursed back to health and placed in foster homes until they can be adopted.
“The biggest thing is to make sure we get the animals away from the person, first, and get them taken care of,” Moss said, “We will try to get those criminal charges as best we can on the back side.”
