The women started out as breeders. Not reputable ones, obviously. The dogs look like Cairns and Cairns mixes. Wish I was in Ohio... would have another doggie added to the three that I already have.
There must be thousands of these people. Animal Planet channel has an entire
series about the problem. I don’t believe they’ll ever run out of stories.
We have 4 dogs and the limit in Houston is 3...... so.... I won’t be taking in any more dogs........ unless I see a homeless one on the street. :) Dogs are my weakness, not alcohol, not drugs, not cats, not shoes or jewelry..... just dogs, oh yeah and antiques :D
I think the county that I live in has a 3 dog limit as well. I think as long as you can pay for the vet appointments, feed them... there isn’t a problem. I’m with you... if I see a homeless one, they are mine. If I could get them adopted by a good person then fine. But, I have a feeling I would keep him or her.
Unfortunately, yes. It is regrettable that whatever animal they hoard suffers greatly from the owner’s obsession.
