KCRA founder Nicole Thébeau went to speak to the owner and said the sight of four dead dogs was devastating.
“Four dogs died. It’s not right. When I looked at them, there was no broken bones, no blood, there was nothing. They almost looked like they were sleeping,” she said.
The Richibucto RCMP confirmed the investigation is in the hands of the NB SPCA.
Chief animal protection officer Tony Porter told Global News he can’t comment on the case as there is an active investigation into the incident.
