An investigation is underway after several dogs were found dumped at a building in Whitehall Township. 

The six dogs were dropped off on Saturday at 12:10 p.m. by drivers who were in a gray Nissan SUV. 

According to officials, the dogs were severely matted and caked with urine and feces. One dog had an old injury, which was a broken leg. 

Officials say it took workers approximately six hours to clean and groom the dogs.
