Newton, Miss., July 15, 2023: ANIMAL RESCUE CORPS AND NEWTON COUNTY OFFICIALS RESCUE 70+ DOGS FROM A “RESCUER” IN CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI
Animal Rescue Corps (ARC), a national 501(c)(3) animal protection organization in partnership with BISSELL Pet Foundation (BPF), a nonprofit pet foundation, responded to an urgent call from Newton County officials for assistance with 70+ dogs of various breeds found living in deplorable conditions on two properties in Newton, Mississippi. Also supporting the rescue on site were Animal Rescue New Orleans (ARNO), Humane Society of South Mississippi (HSSM), Southern Pines Animal Shelter (SPAS), Rescue Riders Network, and local animal rescuers.
All of the animals were seized by the Newton County Sheriff’s Department, and Natalie Fancher Patten a self-described “rescuer,” and her husband William Patten were arrested and taken into custody on charges of animal cruelty, including felony animal cruelty.
The Newton County Sheriff’s Department made this discovery while responding to a complaint that representatives from a purported animal rescue organization and 501(c)(3) nonprofit, Second Paw Dog Rescue, had not been on the property to care for the animal residents there in days. The Sheriff’s Department made contact with ARC requesting urgent help upon discovering the severity of the conditions and the large number of animals. ARC quickly reached out to the other organizations to create a coalition and was on-scene with the necessary equipment, supplies, transport vehicles, volunteers, and a state-licensed veterinarian soon after receiving the call.
“This is a very grim situation here. Scattered bones litter the property,” said Animal Rescue Corps’ Executive Director, Tim Woodward. “These animals have endured tremendous suffering and it ends today.”
Responders found dozens of dogs chained outdoors to trees, trapped in outdoor cages, camping tents, and several more running loose around the nine-acre, trash-strewn property. The dogs had been without access to food, clean water, or necessary veterinary care. On a separate property, over 40 dogs were found running loose and inside a trailer.
Over a dozen dead and decomposing carcasses were found in cages and scattered around the 9-acre property. Two emaciated dogs and one puppy had to be immediately euthanized due to untreated medical conditions that were too advanced to be treated.
“Not all victims of abuse are people and we take animal cruelty very seriously in our community,” said, Sheriff Joedy Pennington. “We will fully enforce the laws of this state and bring those responsible to justice.”
Inside a trailer, among piles of garbage on urine-soaked and feces-covered floors, several dogs including litters of small puppies only a few weeks old were found suffering in unimaginable conditions. The dogs were visibly covered in ticks and fleas, emaciated, dehydrated, bite wounds, and exhibited various illnesses and untreated injuries. Many of the chained dogs appear to have serious dental damage, ground and missing teeth, presumably from chewing at their chains to free themselves.
Working under the Newton County Sheriff’s Department, ARC safely removed the dogs and transported them to ARC’s Rescue Center outside Nashville, TN. ARC will provide medical, physical, and social care until the dogs can be placed with partnering shelters and rescue groups. Each animal will receive full medical exams, vaccinations, and any necessary treatments.
Animal Rescue Corps managed the safe extraction of every animal, assessment, documentation, care, and collection of evidence for any cruelty proceedings in this rescue, dubbed Operation Skin and Bones. Bissell Pet Foundation provided critical financial support for this emergency operation, coordinated on-scene volunteer support from the BISSELL Pet Foundation Shelter Partner Network, and has committed to help manage placement alongside ARC with trusted shelter and rescue partners.

Thank you for finding and helping these wonderful animals ❤
Excellent...Job, Thanks a Lot...God bless you all with Abundant Blessings.....
That was so very upsetting to watch😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Thank you ALL for the time and hard work you put in to rescuing these animals!!!
My heart just aches for these helpless dogs. I cried when I saw all the deliberate neglect and cruelty these poor animals experienced. All those lives lost just so someone could feel good about "rescuing".
Thank you ARC for stepping in and saving these dogs.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
They need such a lot of money to help them
Immense thanks to all of the actual rescuers for getting all the dogs treated and doing what they can 👍
Thank you for all you do to help the animals in need. Just makes me SICK to my stomach seeing that a rescue could do such EVIL things to dogs. I did donate and praying others did too and that all the remaining dogs live happy healthy lifes now that away from the unfit rescue.
This is why I have a recurring monthly donation automatically sent to ARC to the limit of what I can afford.
Quanto è miserabile l’essere umano…mi spezza il cuore…grazie per tutto quello che fate per qs.creature…💙
Thank you guys for all you do! We now have one of those dogs from the video living in our home and she is an amazing new member of our family. Thank you all for giving us the chance to have our sweet girl Oakland!
Thank you so much! We would love to hear how she is doing! info@animalrescuecorps.org -- thank you for opening your heart and home to her. Congratulations to you all!
Made me cry. THANK YOU beautiful ANGELS for helping our animal brothers and sisters.
Thank you ARC for the compassion you provide and for continuing this amazing work! I absolutely love you guys!
OMG 💔😢
Danke das ihr diese armen Seelen von diesem grausamen befreit habt 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯🙏
I have been a following you guys since 2015. I have been donating monthly for over 2 years. I have watched every video and even when I came to volunteer Micheal was shocked at how I knew each and everyone one of your rescues and this one is by far the most tears I have shed and I’d venture to say the worst property you have ever been on! I have no words! I don’t know what the world would do without ARC! I can’t wait to move back to the east coast to be there each and every time you call on us for help!
Thank you thank you..for savings the animals..God bless this teams
Many thanks for being Human
Merci beaucoup pour votre sauvetage 👍🏻❤
Huge work, friends.... Thanks, thanks.
❤❤❤❤
Although your job is rewarding, this side where you witness evil and suffering most be devastated. Thank you all for your commitment and continuous effort to save as many as possible.
Will I blame the judges cause they won't put people like this in prison where they belong for 100 years 😢😢😢😢😢😢
Wow!! this is horrible! thank you thank you for all the poor soul you are saving I hope they all find a good home with lots of love💗
😢😢😢really sad that there is no strict punishment for these kind of cruelty😥😥🐕🐕
Always greatful we have you to take care of them all and to stop what takes place to the animals as to going through hell Thankyou ❤
Thank you for saving the survivors. So sad.
Thanks!!!! ;-)
Worse case ever wow Why are people not checked so they are not able to get dogs after dogs and do this. Bless you rescue people and may those dogs have a life finally
Yes, horrific and sad...
Omg, what a utterly disgusting human being to leave these beautiful animals like that. I hope you guys through the book at her.
Thank you for all you do. I used to donate to you and I will start again!!
Thank you for your compassion in action!
😢😢😢🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I don't know what I feel right now
Anger because this was unnecessary suffering
Sadness because those animals suffered and died. Those still alive are in shocking state
Happiness because you stepped in to resolve and rescue the survivors of so much abuse. Thank you for doing what you do from bottom of my heart
I hope with providing professional care these animals will be able to recover and go to forever homes.
I really hope person that did this is put in jail and keys thrown away it's only what they deserve a better life than they gave dogs
100% worse things than death and I too have witnessed that at the hands of supposed "rescuers".
Please give us an update as to how these dogs are doing.

😢😢😢😢😢
Whoever did this they want tethering to the same tree and left to suffer like the dogs have , other then that she wants sending to prison for life .😢😢😢
Im thoroughly digusted with her and thankful to yall. I used to see her on fb on every post saying she could help she could take the dog and to me that was a red flag. I actually got into public fb fight on fb with her and called her out. I made her post her 501c to prove she was. I thought she was evil from the gitgo. I always go by gut feelings. Im usually right. There are too many rescues being popped rn for this they just had a similar case in ohio. Dogs dead in freezers. Several which were not working.
What type of punishment will this person face?
If it’s possible to get a longer video to share with people that would be great!
Heartbreaking and disgusting to know they were a rescue and treating them that way. I hope to hell she gets prosecuted and never allowed to own any thing ever again. Those poor dogs and the puppies.
Ein Jammer ein jammer😭
Omg..this is evil.
The laws need to change!! These individuals need a permanent place behind bars for life. Because they have a problem thinking this is good what they do. But they are pure evil
When I click on donate it says plus tax?
人間のせいで動物が犠牲になるのは動物に申し訳ないです。世界のあちこちで苦しむ動物が沢山います悲しい鳴き声が聞こえます素晴らしい仕事どうもありがとう
Thank God they are should rot in prison
😡😡😡😡😤😤😤😤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
And this will happen again, and again and again, and it’s happening still today in every southern state in the country. It’s not just bad rescuers, but it’s also horrible people who are breeding and exploding and using companion animals as a commodity.
People who are not spaying and neutering their animals. Breeding on purpose for money, and creating more and more and more animals. As most people should understand we are in a companion animal welfare crisis in this country at this time, and that one state official or local official, is trying to change the laws here to strengthen the prosecutions and an act local ordinances for spay neuter microchips and vaccine requirements to reduce the contagious diseases that are occurring because of people who are not vaccinating.
What 's the purpose ????
Screen people and make follow up visits. Don't see how they let it turn to animal abuse. People in charge are responsible as well.
Depends onto the donations isn’t the solutions that must be able to have businesses worldwide to back the rescue plan to maintain always no worrying for food or healthcare for all of the working in it; therefore, I kept ongoing to doing the with the minings and offshore oil rigs, pipelines, gas, waters; also the China overseas Lands and Properties Investment Ltd all kind of business had nothings to do with any degenerative governments of the world’s at all. Then putting all into the Federal Reserve Universe Corporation; indeed, UK had to returning back all the under ground all kind of values back to the animal’s welling that suppose left off by the Universe Four Fathers tha5 the UK promises will looking good after of the earth animals instead eating them as much as the humans enjoying all the animals meats?!?!?!
Poir poor animals totaly heartbreaking i hope the vermin responsible goes to prison for the terrible suffering he has caused? Why are humans so cruel and and evil thankyou thankyou thankyou for saving them from thia hell rip to all those murdered by neglect
