Puppy Mill Shut down locally

[Riven]

Information is limited, but this is about an hour from me. I'm going to try to find out what kind of dogs and maybe take a friend and a day and go help groom or bathe or something.

And the rescue's site. Nothing about it on there yet, but it just hit the papers this afternoon.

I didn't see where it said what breeds of dogs. Do you know what kind?

I haven't heard back yet, but I did contact the rescue/shelter, so hopefully I'll find out more soon.

I could help with any vet tech stuff or grooming for a day, and I've got at least one friend who will help, and have a couple vet tech friends I'm sure I could convince if they need us!

The article has a picture of labs but I think it's a stock photo. About a year ago a breeder between here and there relinquished custody of like 50 jack russells... Just sad to think that all of those dogs... I mean they could be all cared for properly if someone devoted ALL of their time to it, but the chances of that are very small, just another backyard puppy mill trying to rake in some money.

I'll let everyone know more when I find out more. I would guess there is probably a mix of dogs, with many "designer dogs" in there as well. I've also offered transport back this way to other shelters or rescues.
