>Okay, everyone, here I am desperately begging for direction. It turns out >that there are no ordinances in PA regarding the number of animals a single >person may keep. I have approached this whole matter on the number of dogs >being housed at this hell hole (sorry BIG for language). Hi Jennifer.. A suggestion that might help. With that many animals in the house and the filth you described, go to the County/city health department. If there are children in that household, you will be absolutely astounded at how fast things will happen. >I'll try that one. Actually in my opinion they (Marshall Farms) are. >Also my understanding is that they are the largest ferret breeder in >the country. They also have (or used to have) a very large business in >breeding dogs (beagles) for laboratory use. When I first read the post that the above quote is responding to, I thought, oh pshaw! Another Marshall Farms circular arguement. Well..Mr. Williamson, I personally think your response was one of the best I have ever read here on the FML. It was informative, yet written without bias, anger, or contrivances. Pro and con facts were noted, simply, and accurately. A tip of my ever present cowboy hat to you sir. I like your style.
