HAMILTON, Mont. (AP) — An animal shelter is caring for 39 huskies found on a property in western Montana.

Bitter Root Humane Association operations manager Cyra Saltzman said the dogs, including two litters of puppies, were rounded up the Monday before Thanksgiving on land northeast of Hamilton.

Saltzman told the Ravalli Republic some of the dogs are more socialized while others were wild.

The shelter first learned of the huskies when a spay and neuter group called to report someone had dropped off a dog that needed its leg amputated because it appeared to have been shot. A second report came from a landowner reporting three dogs running free.

2. That was an achievement, capturing all those dogs. Glad they did, since the shooting had begun.
