Authorities say 59-year-old Carlos Alves is charged with mistreatment of animals and unnecessary cruelty to animals.

The group says it was called to the Exeter home after a contractor noticed the animals living in deplorable conditions. The group says the animals lacked adequate shelter in – 2 C temperatures, and the dogs had empty or frozen water bowls.
The group says the dogs are healthy and will be put up for adoption. It’s unclear if Alves has an attorney.
