A curious neighbor looked in the windows of a residence in Somers where a husband and wife reside. The neighbor said the dogs have been barking for two days, the husband has been gone for two weeks in Colorado and there is no sign of the wife. The dogs had torn the house apart and there were a bunch of beer cans and garbage inside. The neighbor said she was willing to take the dogs in and she thought it was strange that the husband had left just after they moved in. When an officer spoke to the wife who lives in the residence, she said she is fine and that they had just moved in a month ago.
