Well I think that the article that was posted pretty much says the opposite of anyone spending $100,000 on healthcare of those in the "kennel". Take a look below~doesn't sound like much was done for the health of their dogs.
[QUOTE]A Guilford County animal kennel was raided after deputies reported
multiple complaints from customers who said the dog's they'd purchased became sick and in some cases died.
Sheriff BJ Barnes said deputies executed a search warrant on Wednesday at Rush Kennels on Maple Wood Street.
Prior to obtaining the warrant, Barnes said undercover investigators purchased a dog from the kennel and discovered that
the animal had a life-threatening disease and a birth defect.
"The dog purchased by the undercover officers soon died of what is believed to be the same diseases and infections that some of the other complainants' pets had died of," Barnes said in a news release.
As a result of the search, 98 dogs were removed from the kennel and are being cared for at the Guilford County Animal Shelter.
"Several of these animals were found to be in poor health and two of the dogs had emergency surgery today," Barnes said. "Investigators will continue examining the health and welfare of the dogs and analyzing other evidence recovered to determine if any criminal charges are to be made."/QUOTE]
