In a shocking turn of events, ten dogs have tragically died while under the care of a local dog trainer in Orange County, leading to the arrest of the trainer and his girlfriend on animal cruelty charges. Alencio Carrasco, 21, and his partner are now in custody after multiple families reported their pets’ sudden deaths, raising alarming questions about the circumstances surrounding these incidents.

Families received devastating text messages from Carrasco, informing them that their beloved dogs had perished. One distraught pet owner recounted the harrowing moment she learned not only of her dog’s death but that nine other families were grappling with the same heart-wrenching loss. “How do we tell our kids? We don’t want them to fear people who care for pets,” she lamented.

Authorities are investigating the suspicious conditions under which the dogs died, with Irvine police searching Carrasco’s home and uncovering potential evidence. Alarmingly, nine of the dogs died on the same day, prompting fears of foul play. Reports indicate that Carrasco attempted to have the dogs cremated shortly after their deaths, raising further red flags.

As the investigation unfolds, police are conducting examinations of the deceased dogs to determine the cause of death. The trainer has been uncooperative, leaving many unanswered questions about whether the dogs suffered from neglect or other sinister factors.

The Irvine Police Department is urging anyone who entrusted their pets to Carrasco to come forward with information. The community is left reeling, grappling with the tragic loss of these innocent animals and the urgent need for answers. As this story develops, the haunting question remains—how could ten dogs die in such a short span, and what truly happened behind closed doors?
