The Washington County Humane Society is investigating after two dogs were found tied to the front door of their building in Eighty Four.  In a social media post Saturday morning, the shelter said the dogs were left there early that morning in 30-degree temperatures and chewed loose from their leash and were last said to be running at large. The shelter had asked anyone in and around the Eighty Four area to be on the lookout for the animals. In an unconfirmed update – it was reported that the animals had been found.  The shelter shared photos of the dogs, the remnants of their leash and screenshots from surveillance video showing people with the dogs in the shelter parking lot.  Anyone with information about the situation is urged to call the shelter at 724-222-PETS.  (Photo:  WAHS Facebook Page)
