164 Pomeranians rescued from truck on hold at Las Vegas shelter

The Animal Foundation has taken in a whole lot of pups. 164 Pomeranians came to the shelter after police found the animals in a box truck in Sandy Valley. The woman who drove the truck was reportedly breeding the dogs in her backyard in San Bernadino and was tipped off that her property would be searched. Officials say there were three to five dogs per cage and that the cages were stacked inside the truck. The dogs will be medically evaluated and groomed to help detect any potential problems. The dogs are on an indefinite hold by animal control. Shelter officials cannot determine whether or when the dogs will be made available for adoption.
