BTW, she also had two adopted children; a six year old boy and a seven year old girl. You should have seen their rooms! Those kids will probably be taken away too.

"I wish there was a way we could follow-up on this story."
yeah I was thinking the same thing. well, if you hear anything tonya, let us know.
I hope animal control does something. I can't imagine someone going to the house you described and handing over that much money.
I know! You've got to be an idiot to:Quote:

A: Pay that much for a pup and not see the parents.
B: Pay that much for a pup when the parents look like they've went to hell and back.
There must be alot of idiots out there though because she's in business in a big way. She had several litters going at different ages. From a month old to a few hours old.
Oh! BTW, she lets them go home at 6 weeks old.
Tonya,
Follow up with AC, and keep hounding them. We pay their salaries, they are a public institution. They work for us, although nine times out of ten, they certainly don't act like it.
Also, call the local ASPCA or HS. Call the newpaper and TV stations and give them an anonymous tip that this is story sure to boost their ratings.
Have your friends call and report it as well.
I think a call to social services is needed too :mad:Quote:

How could these people pass basic adoption requirements ?
I too was going to suggest you phone child welfare. Having children in a home with dead rats, poisen and reeking of urine is definately considered unsafe conditions. A call to the police would have been justified also.
I guess I'm pathetic when I get so upset over the animal's conditions that I don't think about the little humans. I do the same thing when I see a homeless person with a dog. My first thought is to feed the dog, not the person. Shame on me!
I kind of assumed animal control would deal call child protective services, but I think I will too. I have the address at work still. I'll call Monday.
I have to add, I think it is fairly easy to get immune to this sort of stuff. I see so many children and animals treated differently then what I agree with. Sometimes, I sort of get to the point where I turn my head.
For instance, I worked in front of a particular park for about two months straight. Every morning, a mother and child would show up at the park. She'd (I'm assuming by what I observed) dealt drugs all day while he played. Every single day. Losers would come and go all day long. It bothered the hell out of me. But on the same line, the kid seemed happy. Not in good conditions, but he seemed content. I could tell he'd be devastated if he was taken from his mother. I mentioned to a patroling sheriff that I thought she was selling drugs. But I didn't report the child.
I brought the child toys. Whenever I'd take off for lunch, I'd bring him back a Happy Meal. I don't think he'd ever had one before. But I couldn't bring myself to report his mom to CPS.
