I left the remote on the other side of the bedroom last night and was too lazy to go get it, so ended up having to watch Lloyd last night. There's a bit more to this story. The original owner, who had 15 dogs in the house, apparently passed away between being given the 2002 recommendations and now. The situation "got away" from the heir(s).
Would be nice if their punishment was to have their tushes thrown in jail on the weekends. Through the week they could help care for those poor abused dogs, and then go back to that house after a good eight hour shift with a bucket and mop to amuse themselves with in their spare time.

I still have to question the SPCA giving a recommendation to someone who has 15 dogs in a house. Not on the property, in the house. That is alot of dogs and sure would make me think twice.
Whether the heirs let it get out of control or not makes no difference to me. THere is no excuse for having 100 dogs and running a puppy mill. No excuse at all.

I'm not saying it's an excuse, far from it, simply more to the story and that story is much, much, worse than any puppy mill. Go a little beyond the CTV generated grabber headline.
Think about it, this may have started out as a mill, but it ended with 15 dogs reproducing into over a hundred (the actual report counted 100 dogs.....living) in less than three years. By saying it "got away from them" implies that it wasn't a matter of bringing new dogs into the house, it was all from the original fifteen. Was the original owner a miller? And were the original 15 dogs kept inside before 2002? Who knows. What is known is that these dogs were abused and abandoned in the worst way, cruelty to the extreme. No mention in the report if or how often they were fed!
The way I see it is much more of a horrifying picture. The heir(s) had absolutely no regard for life beyond their own.

Is it just me or did any of you notice that the majority of the dogs were either very poor specimens of the breed or even looked like mix breed dogs (nothing against mix breeds) and did you notice on the retired breeders page how most of the thank you letters were worded about the same like they were all written by the same person? what a sad incident
they have every friggin' breed under the sun, that cant be good, a good breeder will generally focus on one breed only.
What pisses me is the fact that they are breeding Labs. The breed description is identical to the one that the AKC uses, and even gives a history of the dog that is IDENTICAL to AKC. I would like to call these people andask them questions specific to the breed, if they are like uhhhh uhmmmm aaaaaaah before answering then that tells me that they are not knowledgeable about the breed. Also with Weim on-site with Labs, Im willing to bet that they are churning out fictious "silver labs" that are actually crossbreds from a weim and a lab. Yup they need to go out of buisness soon.
I think they should have a law in place that states a breeder may not breed more than 2 breeds at any given time., and may not have more than 5 litters per year.

wow. I live about an hour from montreal so this is hitting close to home and it upsets me to hear things that this happening. its true though. here people dont need a license to breed and people sell animals on a site called..www.lespac.com where people sell everything from cars to stereos. its like a big newspaper. you can tell all these dogs have been bred for money and yes i would like to make roxy have pups but more for the sake of giving them to my friends and family who want a boxer they know the temperment of the mother and father. this is sick to think about if I knew the address id go and tell them what I thought about dogs living in a mess like that for so long. I got a kitty from the spca and the amount of animals they rescue near my town is sick 
i know its not only here this is happening but still it gets me mad thinking of how cruel people can be for money.

for that site? none..its like a big newspaper add. all of these people have these animals in there homes. some are okay there people who want someone to take there dogs for free they make sure they go to good homes but mostly its people whos dogs got preg by accident or on purpose and there selling from there homes...normal people with no idea of dog breeding.
some good followup
I was the dog walker (until I moved to BC!) of one of the Blainville fox terriers that was picked up by the SPCA, and Honeybee is one of the sweetest personalities I have ever seen in a dog. She's come so far since her mommy adopted her, she's doing great and loves to play with balls! She's one happy dog.

Wow there are like 30 different dog breeds on Dogs R Us if they really are churning pups out of all these dogs you are talking about minimum 1 bitch of each breed plus one stud dog, so there are over 60 dogs at that place! Imagine if these dogs all have litters around the same time! What a maniac...
