I was at work when my boyfriend, let my dogs out unattended went inside to make egg salad, and 2 of my 3 great danes went for a walk, when he found them he had them in the bed of his truck took them out and tied them to the back of his truck and drove off. They are now in foster care and I left with just the shirt on my back. I'm homeless, vehicle less, dog less, and had to leave Steven's house dog Toby in the home I lived in with Steven at 37 Green Meadow Campground Rd in Glen for 3 years. I want nothing more than to see him in jail, not only for what he did to my dogs, but what I have personally see him abuse all of his 7 dogs
