Animal abuse and backyard breeder * I'm sorry if it's long but please bare with me*:[?

I really don't know what to do. Behind my neighbors house who lives across the street there's a house that has rows of kennels with dogs in them and one dog chained outside. I always hear the dogs crying over there. At first I thought that maybe I was just over thinking it but I've gotten a little worried lately because they seem to be backyard breeders *And I'm very sensitive about that* and they have a lot of dogs and they keep changing them from time to time. They have different breeds back there and they're not walked, just kept in the kennels all day. They are fed and given water but sometimes I don't even see the owner come out to feed them at all. I don't know if I should report this because what if I'm wrong and animal control doesn't find anything wrong? Will I get in trouble? My neighbor told me to that she saw the owner shoot one of his dogs one night and that really got to me. I suspect abuse *like hitting the dogs* but I'm not 100% sure.



Also my parents have these friends who have these 3 dogs, 2 chihuahuas and a %26quot;Great pyrenees%26quot;. Even though the chihuahuas are taken good care of (if you don't count the abuse from the kids) the great pyrenees is chained outside and isn't fed everyday. It has old food that's already molding but that's all they give him until he eats it all. And he won't eat it (for obvious reasons) and one time the little girl who's 4 went up to it and started hitting it with a stick and he didn't bite her but he did scratch her in the face, and her dad got mad and almost shot it (they saw her hitting the dog but they didn't stop it). And just yesterday I overheard them telling my parents that they don't want it anymore and that they're just gonna leave it when they move or they're gonna sell it. And it really pissed me off, but I don't know what to do because my parents told me not to worry about it...but how am I NOT gonna worry about it? It upsets me because even after all that it's such a gentle dog, like when we go over their house and he sees us play it comes running but then the chain stops him and he chokes all he can do is just watch us....it's really sad actually cause he's such a beautiful dog who deserves better:[



I've been witnessing so much animal abuse *and not just these 2 situations* it's really sad cause I wish I could help all of them but my parents make me feel helpless and everything is just so overwhelming.Animal abuse and backyard breeder * I%26039;m sorry if it%26039;s long but please bare with me*:[?
Before calling Animal Control and the local Animal Cruelty Investigators in your area, you should photograph and take video of the cruelty and abuse occurring in the yards, but do it legally and inform your parents that you wish to take the video and pictures.

Definitely plead to your parents to keep the dog because her really needs someone who can love and care for it. Plead with your parents to at least buy the dog from him. Talk with them and tell them that you'll help with the responsibilities and that you do not want to see that dog get hurt anymore. That he will be a great addition to the family, and that they even saw a small glimpse at some of the torture that the dog went through (and that they did not even report it or say anything about it).



I feel so sorry for the dog and I wish you could have him as your own.

I hate people who mistreat animals. They deserve to sit in the cages they put them in.



I hope that dog becomes yours, and if it doesn't i hope that it can go to someone who will care for it the right way.



Another possible thing to do is contact the local SPCA, but okay it all with your parents.



Also, tell them that %26quot;Weren't you the ones who told me to do what I felt was right inside my heart no matter the consequences? Well this is that time, and I feel as though we need to take care of this dog, because we could be the only ones to give him the life he deserves. And THAT I believe, is the right thing to do inside my heart.%26quot;



I truly hope this helps you. I would like to hear the updates on your story with the dog. If you can, feel free to email me. Thank you.Animal abuse and backyard breeder * I%26039;m sorry if it%26039;s long but please bare with me*:[?

This is pretty serious. You should contact your local police or animal control.Animal abuse and backyard breeder * I%26039;m sorry if it%26039;s long but please bare with me*:[?
You can't get in trouble for calling and being wrong. Just call and ask if they could look into both situations, tell them what you know and tell them your not 100% sure on everything. Ask them if their is anything else you can do or specifically watch for.



Hope those dogs get some help and love :(



On a side note, you could ask if they would mind if you walked their dog on occasion.Animal abuse and backyard breeder * I%26039;m sorry if it%26039;s long but please bare with me*:[?
You need to report this right away.Animal abuse and backyard breeder * I%26039;m sorry if it%26039;s long but please bare with me*:[?

On the first case you mentioned about the breeders, you can do this anonymously.



And in case 2 lets hope they sell the dog to someone who will care for it and love it.



I am like you, I cannot stand to see dogs mistreated. Our dog is so spoiled, if he could only see how good he has life. lol
