The SPCA leaves the dogs on chains to be ruined, then might prosecute a mentally challenged man who is too poor and weak to defend himself, and if it did, it would hold the dogs in miserablecells if there is a court case, or kill them on the grounds that they were "sick and in distress", if past SPCA actions are followed.

No wonder so many people don't want the SPCA to be told about suffering animals! The SPCA should have done several things long ago. It should have demanded municipal anti-yard dogs laws, and it should have urged the owner to surrender the dogs or seized the dogs years ago, and it should have rehabilitated them and found them good homes. It did none of that.
