6 of our toledo members should get one of these! YAY!
An Ohio man who zipped six adorable puppies into a suitcase and left it next to a trash bin might have gotten away with it if he had remembered to remove the luggage tag bearing his contact information, authorities said Wednesday.
A Toledo Area Humane Society officer filed two misdemeanor charges of abandoning animals against Howard Davis, 53, of Toledo, this week, according to court records.
'It's unfortunate he chose to abandon the dogs,' said John Dinon, the Humane Society's executive director. 'If he had just called us and said he couldn't care for them, we would have taken them and he wouldn't have been charged with a crime.'
The dogs will be sent to a foster home until they are ready for adoption.
Davis is scheduled to appear in Toledo Municipal Court on April 13.
