RIPLEY, Ohio — After verifying a tip from a concerned neighbor and securing a search warrant, Brown County dog wardens walked inside a Ripley home May 1 to find a nightmare festering inside. Eight dogs were crammed inside dirty cages filled with urine and feces. The pets had no food or water. All utilities were shut off inside the home. Garbage and clutter packed the rooms.

CINCINNATI — Nathan Mills has spent the year fighting for his life, and he isn't even two yet.
