Another dog, which had been crated following a visit to the vet, was discovered dead in a crate.
The video also depicts the condition of Gene and Betsy’s house, which is, to put it mildly, chaotic.
The New Mexico Department of Public Health discovered during an environmental evaluation that Gene and Betsy’s property was rodent infested, with nests and dead bugs strewn throughout eight unattached outbuildings.
Betsy passed away from hantavirus pulmonary syndrome on February 12th, and Gene passed away from heart illness and advanced Alzheimer’s a few days later, on February 17th or 18th.
This month, a private memorial service was held to finally lay them to rest.
