BRADFORD, Pa. (AP) – A Pennsylvania real estate agent was checking on a vacant home, to see how much cleaning it would need before it could go up for sale — when he stumbled onto a disturbing scene.

He pried open a door that was nailed shut, and discovered the decomposing carcasses of two Great Danes. He called authorities — who found 21 other dead dogs.

A woman who bred the large dogs used to live in the home. Police say she had been cited in the past for neglecting the dogs.

Real estate agent Jack Buckles told a local newspaper he found the dogs in a small building on the back of the property. Police found the other dogs, young and old, around the property. They say they probably died months ago.

They are now searching for the woman.
