Injured, abused, and neglected

In Montague and Kaufman (Texas) Counties, 2 puppy mills were raided and 1,100 animals removed from horrendous conditions.  In Hamilton (Texas) we have our own little version of puppymill hell....

Look closely, you'll see the animals in their cages.

The story of "Buffy"
(photos below)

     Buffy was sold as a young schnauzer, about a year old, no papers, with a minor eye problem.  Conjunctivitis the puppymill owner said...an ailment that could be easily cured with over the counter medications, she continued. 

     Turned out Buffy's eye was rotting in her head and had to be removed immediately.  How long did she suffer?  Couldn't her eye have been saved by seeking timely medical help?  END THE SUFFERING~

     Buffy's story has a happy ending.  We will be posting her new photo, the one of her clean, groomed and ready for adoption--maybe you are interested in adopting Buffy!  Call us today!  Yes, she's minus an eye but she has heart!

UPDATE:  BUFFY IS ADOPTED!

The matting is cut off, the eye socket is clean, and Buffy has a second chance at a wonderful life!

Buffy's new family brought her by to visit!

THIS IS A PUPPY MILL

Look at the cramped conditions, the lack of a quality life.  How can you justify supporting an industry with such disregard for life?  NEVER, EVER BUY FROM
A BACKYARD BREEDER, A PET STORE, OR A PUPPYMILL!  REPORT THESE OPERATIONS TO THE NEAREST LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY AND FOLLOW UP ON YOUR REPORT AND MAKE CHANGE HAPPEN!

for neglect. Underweight and gross hair loss

Underweight and suffering hair loss.

You cannot even tell the little Chihuahuas' colors...they've lost so much hair.  The veterinarian we took them to said their care was so neglectful their hair and teeth were falling out.  Too sad.  The Mastiff was in sorry shape as well.

But!  We'll feed them premium food and give them health care, something they've likely never had...and then they'll be offered for adoption!  Six little Chihuahuas, cute, cute, cute.  And a Bull Mastiff!  

HAPPY TO TELL YOU ALL--EVERYONE EXCEPT ONE LITTLE CHIHUAHUA IS ADOPTED!  CONTACT US FOR INFO ON CHICO THE LONE CHIHUAHUA!
