Man accused of cruelty can help dogs find homes

A judge says a Jefferson City dog breeder accused of animal cruelty can work with the Humane Society to find homes for up to 70 malamutes that were seized from his property.
The Independent Record (http://bit.ly/uO5c7L ) reports Mike Chilinski told District Judge Loren Tucker on Wednesday about 70 people have contacted him about adopting the dogs.
Authorities say a man and woman reported Chilinski when they went to his house in September to buy a Malamute puppy and were horrified by the conditions. The Lewis and Clark Humane Society says the dogs were living in pens encrusted with feces and with little or no water, and many of them were underweight and had parasites and untreated wounds.
Chilinski faces 91 counts of felony animal cruelty, as well as unrelated drug charges. More than 160 dogs were seized.
