Two Cases of Neglect Result in Death of Canines

Sheriff Richard K. Jones reports two cases of serious neglect that resulted in the deaths of two canines:

On July 10th, BCSO Deputy Dog Wardens were called to a residence on Sixth Ave in the City of Middletown for a subject that could not enter his residence due to a viscous dog. The victim identified the dog and told the Deputy Dog Warden it lived next door. When the Deputy Dog Warden approached that house at 866 Sixth Ave. he noticed a bad odor from an open window. Middletown Police responded and spoke with a maintenance worker on the property. He told police that the people who lived in the home had been gone for approximately three months. He stated he heard a dog barking and opened a window and the dog jumped out and ran away. When Police entered the residence they observed one deceased canine that had appeared to have been partially eaten possibly by the other canine. The residence was in deplorable conditions and there were food cans that the dogs had apparently attempted to chew through to get food. The Butler County Sheriff’s Office conducted further investigation and a witness identified the owner of the home and a warrant has been filed through Middletown Municipal Court on Nora Leanne Dunn, female, age 52, for 2 counts of Cruelty to Companion Animals, 2 counts of Abandonment of Animals, 2 counts of Failure to License, and 1 count of Failure to Confine. All these charges are still classed as misdemeanors in the State of Ohio. The dog has been properly treated by the Animal Friends Humane Society in Butler County and will be available for adoption.

On July 13, the Butler County Sheriff’s Office responded to 6583 Lorraine Dr. in Madison Township, after a neighbor complained of a canine tied to a clothes line pole on a short leash. The complainant told Sheriff’s Deputies that the dog had been barking all day and was sounding in distress. The deputy noticed the dog had no shelter, shade, food or water. He found an empty bucket and tried to give the dog water but it appeared too weak to stand. A BCSO Deputy Dog Warden was called to the scene but the dog died of a possible heat stroke prior to his arrival. It has not been confirmed how long the dog had been in this condition. Charges were filed against Tyler Pence, male, age 28, with Cruelty to a Companion Animal, and Failure to License.

Sheriff Jones is disgusted over cases like this and he will continue his promise to arrest and have the suspects prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Agents Conduct Heroin/Fentanyl Bust Last Night

Butler County Sheriff Richard K. Jones reports that Butler County Undercover Regional Narcotics (BURN) Agents successfully concluded a week-long heroin trafficking investigation with an arrest last night and the seizure of drugs, money, and a handgun.

After receiving information of a heroin trafficking operation in the Fairfield, Ohio, area, agents have had Stefan A. Rutledge, age 32, of Cincinnati, under surveillance for about a week. Early evening yesterday (April 28), after observing Rutledge complete what appeared to be a drug transaction on Ramblewood Dr., Fairfield, agents attempted to have his vehicle stopped with the aid of marked patrol units. Rutledge initially failed to pull over, and led officers on a slow-speed pursuit into Hamilton County while he was tossing items (later recovered) out of his vehicle along the way. He eventually stopped in Forest Park, and was taken into custody.

He has been charged with felony counts of Trafficking in Heroin, Possession of Heroin, and Possession of Bulk Amount of Fentanyl, along with Misdemeanor Failure to Comply with a Police Order. He is currently housed at the Butler County Jail.

“I’ve tried to tell drug dealers before – if you bring your poison to Butler County, we are going to go after you,” said Sheriff Jones. “This heroin, combined with fentanyl, is definitely the poison of choice right now. It is resulting in tragic consequences along all social levels and from the rich to the poor. This bust may just seem like just a drop in the bucket, but we’ve got to start somewhere,” he concluded. “Good work by my agents.”

Dog Licenses

Licensing your dog is required by law, in the State of Ohio. The license tag has an identification number that identifies you as the owner should the dog become lost or separated from you.  If your dog is lost and taken to the humane society, it will be kept for 14 days, if it is wearing a license, before it is placed up for adoption. Without a license, the holding time is just 3 days. You can purchase your dog license from the Butler County Auditor, the Butler County Dog Wardens, or at one of the licensed vendors which are listed on the Auditors webpage.  The Butler County Dog Wardens will also respond to your residence, during normal working hours, to sell you your annual dog license(s).

Lost Pets

If you’ve lost your pet, visit every shelter. It’s important that you visit all the local animal shelters to look for your pet because animals can wander far from home. It’s also necessary for you to visit Animal Friends Humane Society in person as they do not take lost pet reports over the phone. If you don’t find your pet at the shelter, leave a lost pet report and current photo with their office staff.

Don’t delay in looking for your lost pet. Don’t assume that a shelter will house your animal any longer than a few days. The Ohio Revised Code requires Animal Friends Humane Society to house stray dogs that are not wearing a current county license for 72 hours. A stray dog that enters their facility wearing a current county license will be held for 14 days. The State of Ohio does not require stray cats to be held for any length of time.

Find us on FacebookYou may also post information about lost pets on the Dog Warden Facebook page to share it with other Butler County residents. This does not take the place of visiting the animal shelter, nor does it constitute filing a lost pet report. The animal shelter does not check against Facebook postings to identify animals.


Adopting a Pet

Pet adoption information can be found on the Animal Friends Humane Society website.

Operation Safe Schools – Update

In mid-March, 2013, Butler County Sheriff Richard K. Jones announced and launched a new program dubbed “Operation Safe Schools” whereby Sheriff’s Patrol Deputies were instructed to stop during their regular patrol times and make a personal appearance at least once every school day at every public elementary, middle, and high school located within the areas where the Sheriff’s Office has primary or shared jurisdiction. Those visits were to take place at varied, random times, and were meant to show a police presence in and around the schools as often as possible between regular patrol duty assignments in hopes that it would deter any kind of criminal activity from happening.

We’ll continue it at least until the end of this school year. It isn’t as good as having a full-time Deputy stationed in every school every day, but at least it’s a step in the right direction. We are at least having some kind of daily presence in those schools within our jurisdiction.”
