Petition: The Dothan Grooming Shop Had No Power Since June. The Cats Were Still Inside.
The smell reached the neighbouring shops first. For weeks, businesses in Northside Plaza in Dothan, Alabama complained about an odour coming from JoJo’s LaundroMutt, a pet grooming shop on Ross Clark Circle that had gone dark. On 20 August 2026 Dothan Animal Services finally went in. They found several cats dead in their enclosures and other animals still alive in cages beside them. Police said it was clear the animals had been left unattended for about a month. Brandi Leann Tyrrell, 41, was arrested on 25 August and charged with two felony counts of first-degree cruelty to a cat and six counts of animal cruelty. Please sign the petition demanding a lifetime ban on owning or working with animals.
