Artest's Dog Seized by Animal Services
Artest's Dog Seized by Animal Services
Thursday, February 8, 2007; Page E05 Animal services officers seized a Great Dane from the mansion of Sacramento Kings star Ron Artest, saying the dog was underfed. Neighbors complained for weeks that the dog -- named Socks -- appeared to be starving inside a gated area on Artest's $1.85 million estate in rural Loomis, Calif., according to a county report. The Kings' Ron Artest had his Great Dane seized from his house because it was underfed. On Jan. 30, animal services officers visited Artest's home and issued a "pre-seizure" notice, warning him that the female Great Dane would be taken into custody if the animal care didn't improve. Placer County animal services officers returned to Artest's home Monday and removed Socks. Artest has 10 days to request a hearing, county spokeswoman Anita Yoder said. The episode has so upset neighbors in Artest's gated community that the homeowners' association plans to vote next week on guidelines that would require members to properly care for their animals. |
