    A veterinarian in Woodbury has been arrested for hoarding more than 200 animals in her home. According to Nassau County SPCA detectives, a search warrant was executed after the SPCA received a call from a vet technician about the animals. Detectives say the animals are living in awful conditions. It is a large home located on Woodbury Road. The Nassau SPCA is spending hours removing the animals from the house. “We took animals, six dogs out of here yesterday, claws, nails were overgrown. We took pounds of fur off them. One was so sick; he’ll probably need to be euthanized,” said Gary Rogers, a detective from the Nassau County SPCA. Detectives are not releasing the identity of the hoarder, but say she is in custody. The Nassau County SPCA, a nonprofit organization, is accepting donations to rehabilitate the animals

    there might be more to this story. Her property borders the Commons and a country club or golf club and for years they had eyes on that space & tried to make things "difficult" so she would get out. many times she was inspected & they found no negligence. She saved what no one wanted. Many were unreleasable & she cared for all. Animals others would have euthanized. She had a crippled rabbit & asked for me to make something with wheels so it could get around. don't be too quick to judge.

    I believe I know who & where this is. She is the most wonderful and caring vet I've ever known and has spent her money & life dedicated to the animals.
