北卡罗莱纳州当局表示，他们在垃圾袋中发现十只死狗被扔到路边的一个沟中后，正在进行调查。.
那些狗 — 主要是斗牛犬 — were found during a volunteer clean-up event called “Operation Spring Cleaning, authorities in Robeson County said.
“Sadly and under current investigation was the discovery of 10 小狗 (mostly but not all pit-bulls) wrapped in trash bags and thrown alongside a ditch bank,” Robeson County Sheriff Burnis Wilkins wrote in a Facebook post on March 20.
After the dogs were discovered, the Robeson County Sheriff’s Office Animal Cruelty Investigator and a local veterinarian were called to the location, Wilkins told CNN.
The vet told investigators that the dogs did not appear to be involved in dogfighting, Wilkins said. There were no obvious causes of death or signs of injury.
Robeson County officials are seeking the public’s assistance in locating the owner of the dogs.
“We’re hoping somebody comes forward,” Wilkins said.
