Target: Gentner Drummond, Attorney General of Oklahoma
Goal: Ensure legal action against those allegedly responsible for the cruel treatment of over 150 dogs and puppies.
At the crack of dawn in Milburn, Oklahoma, an alarming discovery unfolded. Authorities reportedly stumbled upon over 150 dogs and puppies enduring harrowing conditions at two large-scale breeding operations. These innocent beings, reportedly confined in outdoor pens, barely shielded from harsh weather, lived a life no creature deserves.
Veterinary assessments reportedly painted a grim picture; skin infections, eye problems, and respiratory distress plagued these animals, with one puppy urgently whisked away for emergency care. Allegedly, these sites operated under the radar, selling dogs on reputable platforms and markets known for dubious animal welfare practices. Such revelations underscore a systemic failure to protect the most vulnerable among us.
This situation beckons a collective outcry for reform. Accountability must be ensured for those reportedly exploiting animals for profit, and robust safeguards must be established to prevent future suffering. Demand a stringent review and overhaul of regulations governing animal breeding and sales.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Attorney General Gentner Drummond,
We, a concerned community, urge you to take swift and decisive action in the distressing case involving over 150 dogs and puppies reportedly found in dire conditions in Milburn. This alarming situation, uncovered by local authorities and animal welfare organizations, reveals a blatant disregard for the well-being of these animals, allegedly subjected to neglect and unsanitary living conditions.
These findings, including animals reportedly suffering from skin and eye infections and even life-threatening respiratory distress, highlight an urgent need for legal intervention. The fact that such operations could sell animals online and at markets notorious for animal welfare violations points to a broader issue that requires immediate attention and action.
We implore you to prosecute those allegedly responsible for this apparent cruelty to the fullest extent of the law. Furthermore, we advocate for a review and strengthening of the laws and regulations governing animal breeding and sales in Oklahoma. Our goal is to ensure such deplorable conditions and disregard for animal welfare are not repeated.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

This is exactly why breeders need to be shut down and this has to stop. We have so many dogs being put down because there is no room at the shelters and yet these people are still breeding and abusing more dogs. Certainly your state has real jobs available and no one needs to do this for a living, especially when their ‘living’ is killing and horribly abusing animals trapped in their system. Stop breeders, enact real animal welfare laws and enforce them. This is just disgusting
