In June, police and members of the Humane Society of the United States seized 84 Great Dane dogs from locations in Wolfeboro and Bartlett. Fay, 59, was initially charged with two misdemeanor counts of animal neglect for allegedly keeping the Wolfeboro dogs in squalid conditions and denying them adequate food and drink. Twelve additional charges, alleging similar conduct, were filed earlier this month and two charges have been dropped making a total of 12 current charges. "Each of the complaints filed by the State contain sufficient detail to allow the defendant to prepare for trial," said Greenhalgh. Greenhalgh did grant Fay's motion for discovery and said that all documents requested by the defense should be available for copying.
