A 41-year-old Rome man was arrested Monday on felony aggravated animal cruelty charges.

According to the arrest warrants:

Tranis Kenkade Broughton failed to get veterinary care for his dogs.

One of the dogs suffered from a serious heartworm condition while another suffered from untreated mange.

Both conditions can lead to death if untreated.

Broughton is also accused of releasing four dogs on Mango Road near Wayside Road, resulting in four counts of abandonment of animals.
