House, which was brought to the school. COSHOCTON – The Coshocton County
Humane Society is hoping to find
forever homes for the final three dogs
that were part of a group rescued
from a hording situation.
“There was no electric and no air
conditioning in the building they
were in,” said Rachael Selders from
the humane society. “It was so hot in
there. We had to get them out and get
them some fresh air.”
Dr. Butcher evaluated the dogs and
unfortunately three had to be put
down because they were so sick.
“They all lived in crates and they
were full of feces,” Selders said. “We
spent hours bathing them. Some of
them that had white on them are
cream colored because we couldn’t
get the stains all off.”
The three dogs that are still looking
for homes are Emilee, Natasha, and
Honey. They are all good on a leash,

Emilee is currently living with a

likes cats, and loves people.
“Her foster family has a handi-
