My sister is a part of the humane society. We did not go in the lady's house, just the front porch. She's not sure how much it qualifies as animal abuse or cruelty. Maybe just uneducated? We told her that the puppies should stay there longer but she said "they're eating me out of house and home." So the bad things she has done is not bathe them(they were greasey), give them away way too young(5 weeks), and not give them shots/worming.
I was thinking I could adopt them all for the $500 and bath them,bottle feed and get them started on water and keep them for 4 more weeks (puppies should be good to go at 9 weeks)and give them shots/wormed and taken to the vet then find them new homes later if anyone on this site wants to adopt them. This lady doesn't even have contracts or a receipt book but they are AKC. It would be better if she would do all this, but I could tell they don't have money and wouldn't hear me. She even kept saying "It says here on the paperwork to mark whether you breed her or not, but I don't see why it's anyone's buisness." Well lady it is a big deal ever heard of a spade/n contract?
