MORE TROUBLE - Animal cruelty charges have been filed against former Decatur animal control officer Sherri Jo Berend. Wise County animal control officers, responding to a citizen’s complaint, found close to 40 dogs living on Berend’s property. Officers said that violates an agreement made with the Wise County Attorney’s office last summer following an earlier raid where 247 dogs were taken to SPCA animal shelters and later put up for adoption.

Uh, we do have some animal chaos going on in the county right now.
