The deaths of at least 20 dogs at a greyhound park in the Florida Panhandle is currently under investigation by authorities.
The dogs’ trainer, Ronnie Williams, was arrested on Friday and charged with animal cruelty. A local greyhound adoption group alerted authorities that Williams had brought in eight underweight dogs.
It’s unclear exactly how many dogs were found dead at Ebro Greyhound Park. The park’s assistant general manager says Williams’ dogs were healthy during the season, which ended Sept. 25. Williams continued to come to the track every day to let out two dogs for exercise and told other trainers he had only those two left.
