A person can have 8 dogs as long as he or she can take care of them.

Each state has different laws pertaining to what counts as animal cruelty. If you thing there is animal cruelty, first you need to look up the law for your state.

According to ASPCA, "Your local and state police are generally mandated to enforce all laws in your state, including animal cruelty, even if these laws are not included in your state's penal code-contact them if you witness animal cruelty, including neglect, or have information regarding an incident of animal cruelty in your area."

You can click on Stray Pet Advocacy in the related links below to find more information on individual state laws pertaining to animals. It depends on If where this person is living and 8 dogs are allowed on the property. some councils have a law of only two outside dogs and one small inside dog not 8 dogs unless they are a registered breeder or on enough land to comadate these dogs. (like an out of town property) If this is a person living in a residential area and the noise of these 8 dogs are a problem to everyone living around them then you can call you local council to make them aware of the problem or you can call the RSPCA if you have one in your area and they can just check the welfare of these dogs. hope this helps.
