Dubuque man facing multiple animal neglect charges

DUBUQUE, Iowa - A Dubuque man has been arrested after authorities removed several animals from his farm.

30 year old Cesar Gonzalez is charged with livestock neglect resulting in death, eight counts of failure to dispose of a dead animal, and multiple counts of livestock neglect.

The Telegraph Herald reports that several of the 26 animals removed earlier this month were in poor health and included horses, a pony, goats, sheep, pigs, and others.

The horses are now being cared for at the Iowa Equine Rescue and Awareness League in Cedar Rapids.
