Guest Anonymous Posted September 19, 2002 Posted September 19, 2002 can any one help i went to go look at some puppies monday and when i got there the puppies where very sick and where scared of every thing . the pens they where in where no biger then a cats litter box ans they had german shepherds, newfoundlands ,boxers,alot of mixes and baby shih tzu puppies .most of the puppies already had cherry eyes and where bleeding from there noses. i tryed to get help from there vet and all they said was that where i live in iowa there is no animal shelters so they can't do any thing about it .i was so sad when i seen this it would make any one want to cry .the 2 women that where there said they see noting wrong with there kennel . so i took pictures of every thing And still no one will help .the vet said the best thing to do is get the word out about them so maybe if we take away there money they will stop breeding .i just wish there was something else i could do .if any one can help please let me know . :( Quote
Hobbit Posted September 19, 2002 Posted September 19, 2002 Contact the UNITED STATE DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE - ANIMAL AND PLANT HEALTH INSPECTION SERVICE (APHIS), they are in charge of inspecting and licensing puppy mills. Stay after the USDA/APHIS to do thier job! Here is the website: http://www.aphis.usda.gov/ There is also listed the location where you need to call or email your complaint. Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted September 19, 2002 Posted September 19, 2002 Just out of curiousity what part of Iowa... It seems the vet would help you and he/she should have some sort of pull... Start the petition (written) take it to the vet..if you got pictures get them developed and take them with you when you go to get the petition signed.. Start one on the internet also... Hobbit, would the local police dept. not handle the local animal cruelty cases?? If the neglect is bad enough it would be considered cruelty!?!? :-? Quote

Some departments just don't have the resources, time, care to, or knowledge to handle cases as such. Quote

Guest Anonymous Posted September 19, 2002 Posted September 19, 2002 OK. I called the sherrifs dept and they said to call the humane society. Called them and they are familiar with these women. They need some more info from me in order to proceed....and I've PM'ed gsd_lover86 for that info....will keep you updated!!!!!! Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted September 19, 2002 Posted September 19, 2002 If she took pics..take those also... WAIT...If these dogs are AKC or CKC or UKC or anything of that nature write the kennel club and tell them and take pictures and they will ban them from that particular club also!! :wink: Quote
