WANTED for Animal Cruelty:  Pet Hoarders Tammy and William Hanson

Posted 06/22/2006 

Dozens of dogs found pinned together

Anyone involved in hurricane rescue will no doubt remember these people.  Arkansas police raided their "sanctuary" to find hundreds of dogs, including many that they had "rescued" from Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, in deplorable conditions. They are on the run and we are asking for animal people everywhere to be on the lookout.

Sheriff John Montgomery (info below) should be contacted IMMEDIATELY if you suspect that you have seen Tammy and/or William Hanson.

WARNING! WANTED:  HAVE YOU SEEN THESE PEOPLE??

Pet Hoarders, Tammy Hanson, 38, and her husband, William Hanson, 41, owners of Every Dog Needs A Home (EDNAH) in Gamaliel,  Arkansas, did not show for their court appearance and appear to be on the run.  Tammy and William Hanson, convicted in January on 20 counts of cruelty to  animals in Baxter County District Court, failed to show up in court for the sentencing phase.

Tammy Hanson also was scheduled to be arraigned on three theft of property charges and three tampering with evidence charges, all misdemeanors. 

They could be in your community planning another EDNAH.   Please keep your eyes open and help bring these people to justice.  In the  past they have operated out of other states, including Missouri.  We need to stop them from committing future atrocities against animals!

If you see them contact:
