Ban Puppy Mills

From Dogs Deserve Better newsletter:

Remember Gypsy Camp Hollow Rd. in Tyrone, PA, where Thayne was charged with Trespassing for helping Chained Dogs?

The property owners are collecting dogs again. The CPHS Humane Officer, instead of taking Thayne's evidence of abuse (no house or anyone living on property, a dog with a protruding uterus, a dog with a huge tumor on his face, and all full of worms) and charging the real criminals, he had her charged with trespassing, warned the abusers he was coming back in two days, let them take dogs out, and refused to allow any other org to pull the dogs from the humane society that were given up. As a result, the abusers felt they were in the right, put up a wooden privacy fence, and have started collecting and chaining dogs on the property again. Above is a picture taken with a zoom lens of what appears to be a pit mix chained at the property. We believe they already have at least 3 dogs chained on the property. This behavior by our law enforcement, who is tasked with protecting the animals, must stop! If you live in Pennsylvania, please join our coalition to limit chaining and pass the newly releases SB1435 at UnchainPADogs.com. Also, now's the time to contact your local Senator and insist that he/she support the bill!
