- North Carolina, USA -
The Henderson County Sheriff’s Office arrested 47-year-old STACY ANN ROSE (pictured).
On March 5, 2025, Detective Moore and Deputy Leahy responded to a report of three Saint Bernard dogs running at large in Horse Shoe.
After catching the dogs, officers noted that they were in poor condition and contacted their guardian, ROSE. Officers then accompanied her to her residence for further investigation.
As reported by the sheriff’s office, ROSE is listed on the Henderson County registry for having more than ten dogs “which allows for inspections of her property.”
Upon arriving at the home, ROSE led officers to a shed where the three dogs had been kept in deplorable conditions, with feces covering the floor, said the sheriff's office.
Sadly, officers also discovered seven dead dogs in trash bags, “most showing signs of severe decomposition”, stated the release.
ROSE surrendered the three Saint Bernards before officers searched inside her home where they found more dogs being kept in similar conditions to the shed.
Deputies then obtained and executed a search warrant which led to the discovery and rescue of fifteen dogs, The sheriff’s office said ten dogs were in the home and five in the backyard.
ROSE was placed under arrest and charged with fifteen felony counts of animal cruelty, seven misdemeanor counts of failure to bury deceased canines, three misdemeanor counts of animal cruelty, and misdemeanor resisting public officer.
At her bond hearing a magistrate set bond at $126,500. ROSE has since been released and according to court records, her next court appearance is slated for April 15, 2025, at 8:45 a.m.
Henderson County Sheriff Lowell Griffin expressed gratitude for the department’s Animal Enforcement team and all those who assisted “as we continue to remain vigilant in ensuring the safety and well-being of all animals in Henderson County”, he said.
I reached out to the sheriff’s office PIO, Stephanie Barbosa, to inquire about the dogs, and I was told: “At this time, all the information about the case that we are able to release is available on our social media platforms. No further details will be provided in order to preserve the integrity of the investigation pending adjudication in court.”
