Investigator's Log
- “There are now five toy poodles in one of the wire cages. They are frantic when I come by to water or feed them. They paw at the wire door trying to get out. When I reach in to get their dishes, they scratch at my arms and make screaming noises.”
- “Melissa said that a while ago, she found an Australian shepherd in the barn that had been dead for days. She threw the dog in the garbage."
- “The trough that collects the waste from the cages gives off an incredibly rotten smell, since it is merely rinsed with cold water and there is a large buildup of encrusted hair and feces.”
- “Amy grabbed the poodle’s leg to pull her out of a cage and yanked it really hard, causing it to break.”
- “There is a little terrier who jumps and hits his head on the top of his cage. He will yelp and scream while doing this over and over again. I can see the plastic roof of his cage bending from the impacts.”
