Arrangements would be made with local animal rescue or shelter. I know when my partner's mother worked for the RSPCA, they had a dog come in that she 'knew' from a previous job at a boarding kennel. The owner was going away for a long stretch, and he knew it. He asked her to look after Dink (the dog) while he was at the shelter, because Dink knew and trusted her, and she did. If Dink had been a prospect for rehoming he would have been, eventually, because none of the owner's family or friends could take him, but he wasn't, so she made sure his life was good while he was there. The RSPCA also took in animals whose owners were hospitalised. Animals who came in for things like that were generally reuinted with their owners or family after a while.so what would happen if the person being arrested had pets or children etc and no family or friends to mind them, and the trauma to children seeing their parent arrested?
i guess someone like child services may accompany police but what about pets?
It's likely that EP has made arrangements for her dog, or nominated a friend to take it. If her kids are closely bonded to it, which I can't imagine they aren't, it may end up with them eventually.
