Photos showing that heavy flooding rain will wash debris into kennels.

What RSPCA witnesses claim is faces and urine is actually silt and debris from heavy run off carrying the debris and silt with it into the kennels.

That a one in twenty year flash flood - massive rain down pour could wash debris and silt into the kennels is supported by the following photos showing the slope of the land. This would be especially so after a prolonged drought where the land was dry and without much ground cover. The leaf litter and silt would be swept by the water running off the ground, filling the drainage trenches and then washing through the kennels. At the time of the RSPCA seizure the dogs had been moved to the house pens and the kennel clean up had begun with 2 kennels already cleaned. Geraldine Robertson was exercising her duty of care.
