Exclamation

Century 21 has a puppy mill listed for sale!


http://www.century21.com/buy/propert...r_key=34370350

This is just sick! "70 breeding dogs are included in sale"... I could go on to say on how many levels this is wrong, but I'm sure everyone will be able to see. Take a look at the pictures of the property and the "dog motel" accommodations. I would be ashamed to keep my dogs that way!

Angry

Ugh.....


I just wrote to The Oklahoma humane society asking them about their state laws regarding pet sales and sent them the link to the century21 listing. Also saw an ad on CraigsList that had been flagged and removed about this century21 listing. This is so wrong, I cant believe that the agent would do something like this. Who is caring for the dogs while the house is in escrow? Well Im off to do research on this and write some letters........grrrrrr

That is terrible! How can you include 70 dogs? I don't think that sounds legal.
I wish I could by the place and make those 70 breeding dogs into 70 spayed or neutered house dogs!

While looking on the net i found that this century21 listing is getting a lot heat. A lot of people have been sending letter and contacting people who can help. The link stopped working for me....does it still work for you guys...Btw I emailed a few reporters as well...We Should all write letters to century21 about how wrong this is!

I wrote an e-mail. Here are some screen shots of the page if they take it down:

[edit] Looks like they took it down, but that doesn't mean they're not going to sell it. They are just being sneaky! For shame!

That breeding facility doesn't look quite as bad as some that I've seen. But still keeping dogs in that manner is just wrong. An animal shouldn't spend it's entire life caged, doing nothing but producing babies. It's not much of a life.
