Villette - David - all of you that have protested so vehemntly -

CONGRATULATIONS!!! I hope they get shut down - and the one in

Lancaster PA, and there's one in Southern MD in Amish Country they can

shut down while they're at it! In fact, wouldn't it be nice if this started a

wave of investigations all over the country? Maybe it will!!!

I went to the breeders forum and read the stories about these poor puppies being bought by unsuspecting people.I am totaly disgusted with the way this person does his buisiness.Villette,it is great that you have kept so much documentation to help with this cause.I am so pleased that it is now going to get the publicity it needs.I cannot get fox over here in England but I will log in for updates.Hope this gives it the exposure it needs to shut them down.

Thank you...look forward to seeing the story!

Hi Everyone,
Just wanted to let everyone know that we have one interview in the can and two more coming up including a satellite interview. But we would still like others in the Houston-area to come forward to be part of the story. If we want viewers to be outraged, we need as many people as possible in our area to speak up. We don't want people to watch the news story and say, "Well, it looks like only a couple people are that upset by the kennel, so it must not be that big of a deal." Unfortunately, appearances are everything in television. We can talk forever about the complaints at the Better Business Bureau or the comments on Yorkie Talk, but in TV, seeing is believing. If you know someone in the Houston-area who was wronged by Brushy Creek, please encourage them to contact me and set up an interview as soon as possible. It's quick, easy and could make a world of difference in the future of this puppy mill.

Don't get me wrong. We are putting together a very effective and compelling story. But that alone will not necessarily bring the attention needed to stop this operation. As a TV news producer, I am confident our story will be great. As a dog owner, I want it to be better than great. I want it to make a difference. I will continue to post updates. Thanks to everyone! And if I can figure out how this works, I've attached a picture of my pug, Gracie.

JiggityJig · 01-24-2007, 01:16 PM

Thanks so much for all your effort. I know it's your job, but it must feel nice to have a job where you know you have the power to make a DIFFERENCE.

Love Gracie and her buddy!

red98vett · 01-24-2007, 01:20 PM

David - That picture of Gracie is OUTSTANDING !! what a great shot with her little stuffed pug

I'll go thru my emails again and resend the info in hopes more will come forward ....Some people have probably changed email addresses

I'm totally behind you and trust your report will be a huge help to the dogs & the people who were scammed and hurt by this kennel - I plan to come to the station with one of the people who did buy a dog from the kennel ...so maybe I'll get to meet you in person ?

I want to thank you again...you must be very compassionate about animals and it's so great to see someone take an ACTIVE interest. I can't Wait for the report...I know I'll for sure be watching.

bdbmamaw · 01-24-2007, 01:28 PM

Looking very forward to the report! You're doing a great job! And Gracie is adorable!

Our News Director (my boss) is very excited about the story and it will air during the most important ratings period of the year, "February Sweeps." To get the largest possible audience, it will likely air during a newscast that comes on right after "American Idol."

We are currently scheduling interviews with people wronged by the kennel. Thanks to Villette and others, we are lining up some really strong interviews that will be an essential part of telling this story. I can't thank the folks here at YT enough for all your help and support. I hope the finished product will make you proud. I will alert this board to the airdate and time when the final schedule comes out. For those outside the Houston area, you will be able to see the story on our website: www.myfoxhouston.com

Our top investigative reporter, Randy Wallace, will be conducting the interviews and putting the story together. He is an award-winning journalist who is relentless when it comes to companies that take advantage of people's emotions and finances.

While I don't have a Yorkie, I am a dog-owner (a 5-year-old pug) and know how you feel about this scam. I will keep you updated. Thanks again for all the help and I continue to encourage Houston-area people who have been harmed by Brushy Creek to contact me.

David
