Punish Couple Accused of Cruelty Toward Over 1500 Innocent Animals

Target: Nancy Hove, Sheriff of Pierce County, Wisconsin

Goal: Ensure that couple believed responsible for keeping over 1500 animals in deplorable conditions be arrested and punished harshly if found guilty.

A man wanted on drug charges is believed to have kept over 1500 animals on a filthy property in Wisconsin, apparently for the sole purpose of breeding them to be fighting animals in a dog and cockfighting ring. Investigators reportedly discovered dog and cockfighting paraphernalia, along with hundreds of dogs and chickens suffering from extreme neglect. While one woman living on the property has been arrested, the owner is still on the loose and must be brought to justice.

The scale of this alleged case of animal cruelty is shocking and has required rescue organizations from across the state to come in and ensure that the many hundreds of animals are removed safely. Most of the dogs confiscated from the home had reportedly been tied up using heavy chains and had injuries consistent with dog fighting. Similarly, the roosters were reportedly found to have been physically altered for cockfighting purposes, which appeared to confirm the investigators’ suspicions.

In order to prevent further acts of unthinkable cruelty, those responsible must be found and held accountable. Sign the petition below to demand that the owner of the property be arrested and that both he and his partner be punished severely if found guilty.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear Sheriff Hove,

A Pierce County man and his wife have been accused of animal cruelty and allegedly attempting to run a dog and cockfighting ring from their property. The over 1500 dogs and chickens recovered reportedly had injuries consistent with being made to fight, and many had physical alterations that are frequently seen in animal fighting operations. While the female suspect has been arrested, her partner remains on the run on alleged drug charges.

Dog and cockfighting operations are commonly associated with the drug trade and are far from being victimless crimes. We, the undersigned, ask that you dedicate as many resources as possible to ensuring that this suspect is caught and that both he and his wife are punished to the full extent of the law, if they are both found guilty.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]

    This is unthinkable . Please dont let them be free to just start over and so ot again

  3. Karen. Scardina says:

    Throw them in prison n Don’t. Let them out. Ever.

  4. They need to be jailed for life and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and forbidden from ever adopting/buying any animals for the rest of their lives.

  5. Cynthia baird says:

    They should not be let off for any reason. They need to suffer in jail the same way they did to these innocent animals. Hope they suffer in hell!

  6. Lois Parham says:

    The reason there is so much dog abuse is because these people are never punished. When we start enforcing our laws and start punishing people harshly maybe they will guit dog abusing

  7. Judith Coffman says:

    They should be put in front of a firing squad.

  8. So sad that animals are akways at the mercy of humans. I dont understand how a human can do that. They must be very sad unhappy miserable human beings who do things like this. These humans need to be treated just like they treated these innocent animals! Chains around their necks, let then rot away! EYE FOR AN EYE!

  9. Rhonda Conroy says:

    Sentence them to take the place of a innocent dog or monkey in the experimental medical laboratories. They will get a closer match to results on humans. It’s a win win.

  10. Maureen McGlade says:

    These people are SOCIOPATHS and need to be in jail and never own animals again!

  11. Lerene Hanson says:

    Jail is to good do them like they did the animals

  12. Lerene Hanson says:

    Do them the way they did the animals

  13. They should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law! Put behind bars! And make examples of these 2, and I’m sure there are others, so that this abomination stops! Making money off off the suffering of innocent living creatures! I don’t want them walking amongst us and my family do you?!

  14. Sandra gaines says:

    Pray for all the animals.
    Revenge belongs to God.

      Where is God? There is so much suffering in the world right now, both humans and animals. Horrific suffering. Where is he???????

  15. I dislike any abuse to any living creature.. people who do it are greedy, evil and dangerous. If they can do this to animals what would keep them from moving to people.

  16. JAIL OR PRISON IS TOO GOOD FOR THEM! THEY’LL BE FED CLOTHED & HOUSED, HAVE ACCESS TO COLOR T.V YARD TIME, VISITORS ACCESS TO THE PRISON LIBRARY & THE TAX PAYERS FLIP THE BILL! OH YEAH ALSO ACCESS TO PRSON DOCTERS & DENTISTS FREE HAIRCUTS! REALLY😡😡😡 ISAY LET ME DOLE OUT JUSTICE & I CAN ASSURE YOU IT WILL BE A SLOW & VERY PAINFUL PROCESS#

  17. These monsters need to be put in a cage where the same treatment is done to them that waa done to these poor innocent animals
    They don’t deserve jail. They deserve to be dealt with in the same manner that these poor animals were treated. I have zero sympathy for anyone who abuses animals. Period!

  18. I’d love to know the outcome. The sentences they received?? The crime is despicable and disgusting. So I did my own fact checks. In Wisc. up to $10,00 and up to 6yrs in jail. This shit happens across the US!!! Nothing new or shocking about it. Michael Vicks estate! The ONLY way to stop it is severe sentences! Write your Senators and Congressmen!!! Demand change. If that’s not heard vote them out!! Eventually, hopefully it will be justice for the animals. OR
    We can all go grab our pitchforks.

  19. Cheryl Marshall says:

    1500 abused animals = 1500 years in prison!

  20. Hold these people accountable for their actions.
