Is this kind of pet rescuing illegal in any way?

[QUOTE="Mamaof5, post: 381932"] It's abusive. It may be borderline legal but it's abusive. I work with a no kill shelter and I am livid to hear about something like this. This just drives me bat poo coo coo, as Donna said, she's an animal "shuffler" not a rescue. This: [url]www.sadelliotlake.com[/url] is a rescue shelter not someone who happens to have a kennel license and shuffles animals around. It's obvious she has no sense of canine behavior at all, growling is communication not aggression (not in all instances anyway, or most for that matter). If you can prove it, the city will take her license away. A kennel license is not a license for a shelter, it's a different set of rules and regulations. At least it is here. The no kill shelter I work with has several licenses, including a kennel license, shelter license, and a few others like their non-profit charity license and business license. No vet care means fines and an investigation. A real shelter has a legal obligation to provide vet care to the animals, including a wellness check when they come into the shelter, quarantine of an animal who is sick and vet care or evaluation for ongoing vet care or whether it is a case where nothing can be done. If she doesn't do these things and claims to be a legit rescue, there are a lot of legal repercussions that will catch up with her sooner or later. [/QUOTE]
