Thai PBS World reports that 13 Great Danes were rescued from a house in Pathum Thani province, north of Bangkok, by the Department of Livestock Development (DLD). The rescue followed a phone call to their hotline by a concerned member of the public.

The dogs were all suffering from severe malnutrition and given emergency treatment at the local DLD office.

On Wednesday, a royal aide sent by His Majesty the King, collected the dogs and transferred them to Kasetsart University Veterinary Teaching hospital.

10 of the dogs are now stable, but the other 3 remain under special veterinary care.
