Stop Three Puppy Mills From Opening in Pennsylvania

 

Your immediate assistance is needed to help stop a puppy-breeding operation

from opening in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Some breeding kennels and

puppy mills are notorious for cruel living conditions--dogs are bred

repeatedly and often kept crowded outdoors in tiny wire cages, filled with

feces and urine, and left to suffer from the elements and a lack of

veterinary care. (For more information about the horrors of puppy mills,

please visit http://www.HelpPuppies.com/nc/index.html.) But even the least

offensive breeding operations are churning out more and more animals while

wonderful dogs have to be killed for lack of good homes.

 

Warwick Township zoning officials will be considering a request from Curvin

Rutt, of Lititz, to operate a dog-breeding kennel. The hearing will be held

in September. If you have an opinion as to whether or not this outfit should

go forward, please contact:

 

Dan Zimmerman, Township Manager

Warwick Township Municipal Bldg.

315 Clay Rd.

Lititz, PA 17543

Fax: 717-626-8901

 

Please also mention that the proliferation of puppy breeders in Lancaster

County taints the area's attractiveness as a tourist spot. Politely insist

that the following county agencies take responsibility for the immeasurable

suffering that many of these facilities cause:

 

Paul Thibault

County Commissioners' Office

P.O. Box 83480

Lancaster, PA 17608-3480

and

 

Pennsylvania Dutch Convention and Visitors' Bureau

501 Greenfield Rd.

Lancaster, PA 17601

Fax: 717-299-0470
