OMG, I can't believe it. I have been following this for the last year.

The Canadian justice system has proven itself as being horribly incompetent over and over again, this shouldn't surprise me.

Yep , same here. The "accused" is someone I respects lots. Received the files by e-mail last week and had to ask her a few questions as I just couldn't understand !!!! I couldn't believe the outcome. It's just so freakin unfair !!!

You said it 14+. How does someplace that is blatantly a puppy mill win against someone trying to do the right thing. Makes as much sense as our wonderful pit bull law.

That is just infreakin'credible! So how much more horrendous must the conditions be to actually qualify as a puppy mill?!

Talking

I hope that woman from Brockville knows that they got what was coming to them. http://www.globalnational.com/second...193/story.html It's so sad that for years this kennel was able to exist and the authorities not only turned a blind eye but supported them by allowing this judgement against a concerned party. I hope this makes her feel a little better. They have been shut down and will have to face charges.

This thread scared me, I thought it was saying that the kennel won a lawsuit to get the dogs back.
