  Cols Dispatch Article on the puppy mill issue


Ohio is the Puppy Mill Clearinghouse for well known out of state Convicted Breeders.  Junior Horton of Virginia, convicted of animal cruelty, purchased dogs at the March 21, & Oct 1 2009 Ohio Dog Auctions. The Humane society removed 700 dogs from Horton's kennel in'08.
 

A judge convicted Horton of 14 animal cruelty and 25 neglect charges in July of 2008.  Horton faces new charges, following an unannounced inspection in January 2009.  Those charges include animal neglect, having too many adult dogs, not maintaining adequate records, and not having certificates showing the dogs are healthy enough to breed.

 Buckeye Dog Auction hosts
A Minnesota breeder on trial for torture is selling a total of 600 dogs at the Buckeye Dog Auction in Holmes County Ohio.  This same breeder was found guilty and did jail time for practicing veterinary medicine.

This is a news story with graphic video of this puppy miller who is now dumping her dogs via the Holmes Co Dog Auction.
