VIDEO: Disturbing footage shows husky dogs ‘living in squalor’ under vet’s trap door

A vet and his assistant have been found guilty of neglect after police found 12 husky dogs ‘living in squalor’ under a trap door in the cellar of the surgery.

Gary James Cassius Samuel, 49, and Rochelle McEwan, 28, worked at Armley Vets, in Leeds, West Yorks.

The court heard that at the time of the incident Samuel and McEwan were long term partners and lived above the practice.

On Tuesday, February 24, police were called to the property after a 999 call reported that Samuel was threatening McEwan with a hammer.
