Public safety officials in Allegheny County said 25-year-old Taura Krill McCormick faces five counts of animal cruelty and one count of harboring a nuisance in connection with the incident.

Police said earlier that they were seeking the resident after officers investigating complaints of a foul odor found the bodies of two pit bulls, a terrier mix and a Rottweiler.
Roscoe, an emaciated pit bull, was removed from the home, and has since been nursed back to health.

"Roscoe was the lone survivor, presumably because of an ability to sustain himself on garbage & toilet water," the Animal Rescue League and Wildlife Center wrote on its Facebook page.
