Guys, CAN YOU BELIEVE IT???

This post is from craigslist:

Since it's the same old goofy tirant that keeps posting these posts about The puppy mills that we're sick to death of and the puppy store protests and those similarly themed, and since they protest so close to the road, I propose that we get together with 'Poopless in Seattle' and borrow some of her 'fruit' and drive by and throw it at the commies that are protesting against capitalism. See Ya There!!!

I know who they talking about.... WOW.
Puppy millers really pissed off now...

Yesterday one guy made some photos of the group.

Btw, yesterday KOMO news radio took an interview too...

Are these people naive, and in denial? or are they just plain evil? I'd like the think naive but I'm thinking they are just plain evil!
We have a pet store in our town, and its amazing how many people dont realize those pups come from a puppy mill, I quietly let people know, in fact my mom knows how adimant I am about not buying dogs from farmland when she saw the stories about Renee she was sure that was where I got Paris and she didn't tell me because she knew it would break my heart that I did the exact thing I am so against.

It is irresponsible people who give good decent breeders a bad name and they are going to cause many a new law passed that will effect the livelyhood of those good breeders. It is such a shame that so many of them are in it for the money instead of the love of the animals.

Unfortunately, most of the breeders are for money. Most iof the breeders are not educated enough. MOST. So to have bill like that is MUCH better that don't have any. This bill for a better protection thse poor dogs, not breeders. I just don't get it how so-called responsible breeders can be againt this bill. It was a shock for me when one of my friends who is member of local show breeder's club told me how that breeders reacted at the puppy mill raid news. All what they said: We have to tell people that not all breeders like that. No one asked is help needed or something like that. Duscusting. All they worry about is their reputation. And then I received a link to anti Humane Society propaganda from them. How Dare They.........

More I find out about breeders, including so-called responsible, more I start to dislike them.

Update:

So far, it has cost Skagit County $18,000 for caring for these dogs. Look at the KOMO 4 News link below, and watch the news video, and read the article. They DID NOT receive $18,000 in donations. They have recieved alot of articles such as pet beds, towels, food, etc.

Also,

just copy of my e-mail:

Super quick thing.. Terrah and I are on the road for home and I felt that I had something that was very important to send out to everyone.

KC emailed and they have only sold 19 of the 550 dinner tickets for the even this weekend. I really kinda hosed up sending it out earlier and I hope its not to late for everyone. Terrah and I donated 1 year of web hosting and 2 hours of my time as a professional coach for your business online. So when you bid on the webhosting, remember you will get me all to yourself for 2 hours.... Over the phone of course, unless you wanna buy the plane ticket

and btw...
if breeders don't have anything to hide, why they are afraid of this bill so much? I know why!
One of them has licence for 60 dogs. 60!!!! A typical large scale kennel aka puppy mill. Puppy mill don't mean very dirty places all the time... She is afraid that she will be shut down (hopefully)
I know why! it will be too much work for them to take a good care of dogs, take them outside, play with them....because right now.... they keep them as livestock. shame on them.

It just reminded me one of the dog, yorkie boy, that I saw at Roske house. It was very sunny summer day, and another breeder came to take him for a stud service. She put him on grass and that dog didn't know what to do, he closed his eyes from sunshine, and did not move. Oh, if I knew at that time what does it mean... poor dog, who stays in dark garage all the time and almost felt down because of sunshine.....

How wonderful to see the media continuing to follow this story!!!

But my goodness - what type of horrendous sickos would rob a rescue? Could it be the puppy millers that want to stop legislation in Wash.?

I hope this leads to more mills being shut down in Washington. Have you checked out the other News links here -- all kinds of mills getting busted in the last couple weeks - southern Missouri, Tenn., NC

and finally some laws for some of these folks - signed legislation in Arkansas making cruelty a felony -- and it is pretty well outlined what cruelty is & even crack downs in LA

I can't believe this woman is asking for the dogs back! I think a fine of $200,000 to cover the care, housing & medical care of these poor dogs. But this woman & her husband need to be in prison, along with whoever else is in their family is involved!

Default Customers' help sought in puppy mill case

Customers' help sought in puppy mill case - Everett- msnbc.com

Customers' help sought in puppy mill case

By Jackson Holtz Herald Writer
The Everett Herald
updated 12:17 a.m. CT, Thurs., Feb. 19, 2009

LOCAL NEWS - EVERETT -- If you bought a dog or puppy from Wags -n- Wiggles, a Snohomish kennel, Snohomish County sheriff's detectives want to hear from you.

"Anyone who has done business with Wags -n- Wiggles or owner Renee Roske - purchasing a puppy, for example - is asked to e-mail detectives at puppyinvestigation@snoco.org and describe their experience," sheriffs spokeswoman Rebecca Hover said this afternoon.

Detectives will review the e-mails they receive, she said. They'll follow up as necessary.

Roske has been connected to a Gold Bar-area home where officials rescued nearly 160 dogs from deplorable conditions, court documents show.

Earlier this month, Snohomish County animal control officials issued an order revoking Roske's kennel license.

The Snohomish woman filed an appeal Wednesday seeking to keep her business.

No criminal charges have been filed against Roske.
