""That dog is friendly. There's no need to choke him like that," an unidentified woman can be heard saying in a video posted Saturday on the organization's Instagram, where she also claims to see blood on one of the dogs."
"The rescue, owned by Christine De Anda, also said officials on the scene confiscated a phone, preventing full documentation of the seizure, and that authorities used catch poles to drag the dogs."
""I wanted to take pictures of each dog as they removed the dog to prove that the dogs were not emaciated or in bad shape as they keep saying they are," she says in the video as she records workers carrying dogs to the trucks."
Rock N Pawz animal rescue claims that during a significant enforcement operation, Animal Care and Control workers injured several dogs. The operation was prompted by complaints regarding animal neglect and overcrowding. Approximately 250 dogs and 66 cats were seized, straining local animal care facilities. Witnesses reported seeing blood on some dogs and alleged that officials used excessive force. The rescue organization also stated that their documentation efforts were hindered when authorities confiscated a phone on-site.
