There's a rotten custody battle over the animals between the state and a man who used to be chief dog warden. Read the troubling story at The Roanoke Times.

  1. What a heartbreaking picture, and what a selfish puppy mill owner. I have no polite way to tell how I think people like that should be treated!!

  2. As much as we like to blame the operators of these horrendous mills, the consumer shares the blame.
