Animal Cruelty Law in Arkansas a Felony I wished this could be a national law.recently. I'm not sure how widespread puppy mills are here in Mississippi, as most of the attention in recent years has been to stamp out dog fighting.
On a side note, there is a bill going before the state legislature to make animal cruelty a felony in some cases, rather than just a misdemeanor. My understanding is that Mississippi is just one of 4 states where animal cruelty can only be prosecuted as a misdemeanor.[/QUOTE] |
