Are the laws different in different states? Because an untreated eye infection and severely matted hair would definitely be cause for removal of the animal and possible arrest on "animal precinct."

They have people on that show with neglected pets and the owners say they didn't have any money to take care of them. The animal precinct people always say that is not an excuse, you HAVE to take care of an animal, just as you would have to take care of a child, you can't not feed it and say "no money". If you can't properly care for it you should find it another home. It is very sad and although those people are horribly wrong I can at least see how things got worse and they just didn't know what to do, and they probably felt bad about it themselves. But "my groomer is sick"???????? That has to be the most idiotic statement I ever heard. Maybe the next time she cuts herself her husband will bring her to the hospital, find out their usual doctor is on leave, and will just let her bleed and get infected because he "doesn't trust any other doctor."

People.
