Once again my office took legal action against a dog breeder for violations of the Animal Care Facilities Act and for operating without a license. We’ll continue to take action to end this kind of animal abuse in Missouri. ago.mo.gov
The TRO application notes, "The eight inspections demonstrated that Defendants’ facility had inadequate shelter; unsanitary enclosures with an excess accumulation of feces and food waste; dogs suffering due to inadequate or untimely veterinary care...
including multiple instances of dogs with loose, sometimes bloody stool, matted fur, severe eye infections, and other health issues; sharp, rusted points in animal enclosures; living spaces that were too small and that did not contain adequate flooring...
food receptacles that contained mold, caked food, and even a maggot; and Defendants have repeatedly failed to provide access to potable unfrozen water.”
Breeders like this cast responsible breeders in a bad light. I’ll continue to work with @MoAgriculture to address non-compliant breeders across the state.
