Lowlife convicted after RSPCA rescued pets from house of horror
A MAN who abused animals and kept them in appalling conditions including next to dead dogs has been sentenced.
RSPCA Officers rescued a female Rottweiler, a male German Shepherd, and five Rottweiler puppies from the squalid Wolverhampton home of Amarjit Chopra.
The 40-year-old barely fed the seven dogs and his property was saturated with faeces and urine.
One of the dogs was found tethered to a treadmill which was next to a cage containing a dead dog.
Chopra, 40, of Curzon Street, Wolverhampton, pleaded guilty to two animal welfare offences, at Birmingham Magistrates Court on September 26.
