Dozens of animals removed from ‘shocking’ conditions in NH home

This content collected from Boston News, Weather, Sports | WHDH 7News.

Several dozen animals were removed from “shocking” conditions in a home in Bedford, New Hampshire earlier this week, the New Hampshire SPCA announced Friday. 

The animals, including 33 dogs, three birds and a cat, were taken into the care of the New Hampshire SPCA, which is now asking for help from the community.

“We are at capacity and in need of support, food donations and adopters,” the organization said in a statement. 

The NHSPCA said its personnel worked with Bedford police officers to serve a search warrant at the Bedford home on Wednesday. 

Inside, the NHSPCA said authorities found the house was “full of mold.” The SPCA described an “overwhelming” smell from animal waste and said the dogs were living in wire crates stacked three crates high. 

The NHSPCA said the crates were inappropriately sized for the dogs inside and said floors in the house were covered in feces.  

Officials this week said they had investigated the house where the latest group of animals were found on several prior occasions. 

Among operations, officials said they already removed 14 horses, two mini horses, two donkeys and 14 dogs and puppies from the home. 

To date, the NHSPCA said most of the horses and three of the dogs that were previously taken remain among the more than 200 animals in NHSPCA care. 

“The dogs were living in a home that was clearly overrun,” said NHSPCA Humane Agent and Cruelty Investigator Tona McCarthy this week.  

McCarthy continued, saying the condition of the newest dogs had not been fully determined as of Friday morning as authorities awaited the results of full veterinary checks. 

With the NHSPCA’s shelter at capacity, Executive Director Lisa Dennison said officials anticipate having dozens of cats, dogs, small animals and farm animals available for adoption National Clear The Shelters weekend scheduled to take place this weekend. 

In each case, the NHSPCA said animals will be available for adoption with adoption fees waived.

Virginia family gets keys to Habitat for Humanity’s first 3D-printed home in the US

(CNN) — One Virginia family received the keys to their new  3D-printed home  in time for Christmas. The home is Habitat for Humanity’s first 3D-printed home in the nation,  according to a Habitat news release. Janet V. Green, CEO of Habitat for Humanity Peninsula and Greater Williamsburg, told CNN it partnered with Alquist, a 3D printing company, earlier this year to begin the process. The 1,200-square-foot home has three bedrooms, two full baths and was built from concrete. The technology allowed the home to be built in just 12 hours, which saves about four weeks of construction time for a typical home. April Stringfield purchased the home through the  Habitat Homebuyer Program . She will move in with her 13-year-old son just in time for the holidays. “My son and I are so thankful,” Stringfield said in a  live feed streamed on Habitat’s Facebook  page. “I always wanted to be a homeowner. It’s like a dream come true.” To purchase the home, Stringfield logged hundreds of hours of

Lawsuit: High school football player says coaches forced him to eat pizza as punishment, violating religious beliefs

CANTON, Ohio (AP) — An Ohio high school football player who says coaches forced him to eat a pizza covered with pepperoni grease in violation of his religious beliefs is suing his former district and the ousted coaches. The former Canton McKinley High School athlete and his parents filed a federal civil rights suit this week seeking millions of dollars in damages and alleging violations of his religious freedom and constitutional rights. The athlete says in the lawsuit that coaches were notified he doesn’t eat pork or pork residue as a member of the Hebrew Israelite religious faith, but that they ordered him to eat the pizza as punishment for missing an offseason workout — and indicated his spot on the team was at risk if he didn’t. The coaches say the player chose to remove pepperoni and eat the pizza rather than an alternative food. They weren’t aware it violated his religious beliefs, according to a  defamation case they filed  previously against the teen’s father, his attorney a

Bergeron, Pastrnak and Bruins finish off Capitals in 5 games

WASHINGTON (AP) — Patrice Bergeron and David Pastrnak dazzled on offense, Tuukka Rask was rock solid in net and the Boston Bruins are moving on to the second round of the playoffs. Bergeron scored twice at crucial times after Pastrnak’s  highlight-reel  goal, Rask made 40 saves and the Bruins eliminated the Washington Capitals in five games with a 3-1 victory Sunday night. Bergeron delivered the dagger with 7:35 left to set up a second-round showdown against either the Pittsburgh Penguins or New York Islanders. Chants of “TUUKK!” emanated from a large group of black and gold-clad Boston fans who were part of the limited-capacity sellout crowd of 5,333. Those were occasionally interrupted by “We want the Cup!” — the trophy the Bruins last won a decade ago after a 39-year title drought. They’re 12 wins away, thanks to their best players dominating in Game 5. Pastrnak made it look easy putting the puck behind his back and through his legs, assisted on Bergeron’s first goal and was par
