There was a news story on my local news tonight about a woman in east Texas who was found to have 350 dogs in her house in wire cages. She was running a puppy mill. There was feces everywhere, the dogs' paws were bleeding from only walking on wire cages for so long, there was one dog who looked like its tongue was hanging out until you realized it's lower jaw was missing.

The conditions were so bad, CPS took away the one little boy living there.

I wish anyone who thinks animals aren't worth our protection and care could have seen those dogs. I am not normally one prone to have my heartstrings pulled or anything, I kinda feel like I've seen it all, but this footage brought me to tears, instantly. Especially the dog with its lower jaw missing. The Dallas SPCA has had to RENT A WAREHOUSE and set up a temporary facility just for all these dogs. A lot of them will be put down immediately because they are in such bad shape, but some can be adopted out.

The woman was just screaming at officers to get off her property and screaming at the news crews etc. I don't normally say this about ANYONE, but if there's a hell, I hope there's a special place in it...
