The New Brunswick SCPA says it’s seized about 12 animals from the Pets Unlimited pet store in Fredericton citing health concerns.
In a post on the organization’s Facebook page, the SPCA says the animals have received veterinary care.
It was not gross neglect, it was just an issue that needed to be looked over,” said chief animal protection officer Carl MacAulay. “The vet’s review of all these animals will probably determine if we pursue charges or not.”
