Sunriver Police Department Requesting Public Assistance In Animal Abuse Case (Photo) -07/09/24

Release Date: July 9, 2024

Location: Sunriver Utilities Company - 18305 Cottonwood Road

On July 9th, at approximately 7:50 am, the Sunriver Police Department was notified by an employee of the Sunriver Utilities Company that they had found a cardboard box containing several deceased puppies near the gate at the Cottonwood Road entry. A patrol sergeant responded and located the box with four to six very young, deceased puppies of an unknown breed. Due to decomposition, it was difficult to discern the actual number of puppies. The deceased puppies were then transported to the Central Oregon Humane Society for proper disposal. 

This case is currently under investigation. There are no security cameras in the area and no known suspects at this time. 

The Sunriver Police Department would like to encourage anyone with information to please contact us. You can remain anonymous or leave your name, but any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
