Nineteen neglected dogs were rescued from a severely rundown home in Katy, Texas, described by officials as a "dog house of horrors."

The Houston woman seen in a viral video kicking and punching a yelping dog said the dog, which is not hers, had just attacked her 5-year-old son. Houston Police Department’s Animal Cruelty Unit is investigating the case, but Jay, the accused woman, said an officer told her she likely won’t face charges. Jay said when the dog jumps into her car, she is seen kicking and punching at it as it yelps. “I didn’t post the video,” Jay said, adding that she doesn’t know who recorded it and doesn’t know the people seen in the video laughing. The Houston Police Department has its own Animal Cruelty Unit, and Harris County has an Animal Cruelty Task Force.
