The Humane Society said in a press release the owner, from El Campo, Texas in Wharton County, was in breach of a city ordinance limiting five dogs per household. Instead, the owner had about 27 Chihuahuas.
Officers with the El Campo PD and the Humane Society were in the initial stages of filing cruelty warrants after finding the dogs were to be confined outdoors in what was only described as "less-than-ideal conditions."

Because the owner surrendered the dogs, they will not face animal cruelty charges.
