Puppy Mill Bust

I want to warn you before you click the link above that there are some graphic and disturbing pictures attached to this story. This story hits me hard because it happened in my home town. A woman was busted for running a suspected puppy mill after calls to the humane society by concerned neighbours were placed about the dogs' conditions. After she was aware that she was being monitored, she decided to start dumping the dogs at various spots throughout the city. The dogs were in such terrible condition upon being found including the dogs remaining at her house.

How does something like this happen? How in the hell does something like this go unnoticed for so long? There's so many disturbing questions that need answers here. What's especially saddening is the fact that we have very poor animal cruelty laws and she will likely weasel her way out of a real punishment. I would love nothing more than to watch her cry as she is wheeled away for jail time but that will likely not be the case.

Please everyone, spread the message that adopting is the only answer. Purchasing animals from pet stores or from breeders is like digging a grave for shelter animals. There are so many shelter animals dying for a loving home that purchasing from a breeder just isn't right. Nobody should be breeding animals for their own gain, it's twisted and wrong.
