A Nova Scotia man has been banned from owning pets for life after pleading guilty under the Animal Protection Act this week.
On January 19, 2016, the SPCA received a complaint that alleged multiple dogs were tethered outside without adequate shelter at a property in Kings County, N.S.
Three dogs were located – all were emaciated, anemic, severely matted and in extremely poor condition. One was found frozen to the ground by its chain and unable to stand.
The three dogs underwent extensive veterinarian care and were successfully rehabilitated and adopted.
Thursday, Leroy Marshall pleaded guilty to a charge of causing an animal to be in distress under the Animal Protection Act and was handed a lifetime ban on owning companion animals.
