CERES, Calif. — Two people were arrested in Ceres Wednesday after police were called about a small dog being neglected, according to a press release.
The Ceres Police Department says they got a call Jan. 31 to the 1600 block of Richland Avenue where they found a small brown female French Bulldog with "obvious signs of malnourishment and neglect."
The dog was losing fur, had open sores and obvious signs of starvation and dehydration. Stanislaus County Animal Services took in the dog and expects it to make a full recovery in their care. Another dog was also taken from the duo.
Luis Cosio, 26, and Guadalupe Cardenas, 25, were arrested in connection to the neglect of the dog, according to police.
Both of the dogs are looking for a home and animal shelters in the area are over full capacity, according to officials. Find more information on how you can adopt here.
