Oh no 14 lost And YES, neglect IS abuse!!! How can anyone think otherwise!!! How can anyone subject living creatures to such horrors and live with themselves We are only as good as we treat the most vulnerable among us. Shame on her!!! Bless their beautiful Golden souls. I hope and pray the remaining pups find some happiness and love. Kennels, puppy mills should ALL be licensed and subject to inspection by the Board of Health and Animal Control. I hope this person receives the appropriate punnishment!
