A man who ran an animal sanctuary near the Shropshire border has been jailed for eight months following the withdrawal of his appeal.
Graham Stephens of Broad Street, Bromyard, Hereford, was first sentenced to eight-months in prison at Worcester Magistrates’ Court in December 2022.
The sentence imposed from December 2022 has now remained, with an additional £750 of costs included with the sentence. “Despite this the donkeys appeared in generally normal to lean body condition, however most of their feet were overgrown to some extent, with some having their feet curl up, this was evident despite the muddy conditions.
“The curtains were drawn, so light was limited but I could see lots of dogs, both loose and in cages, some cages were stacked on each other, all cages and the floor appeared to have faeces on them.Inspector Smith said Stephens advised that the two Tawny owls in the pet carriers were wildlife rescued and one was due to be released.
