(KRON) -- A Windsor woman faces animal cruelty charges after police found dozens of dogs confined to her garage in poor living conditions on Tuesday, according to authorities.

Windsor Police Department officers were conducting a probation compliance check of 35-year-old Christina Urrutia at her residence in the 7000 block of Hastings Place when they made the discovery. Officers counted 28 dogs, ranging from puppies to adult mixed-breed terriers, at the home.
