I'm not saying *I* don't think it's neglect, I'm saying the law doesn't and won't be able to do anything about it. Using your argument any accident (like slamming a dog's paw in the door) would end up being a chance for animal control to take your dog(s) away.

Tiny is right, at least here...the law does not see this as an issue here.

Well, I'm just glad that one of the dogs was able to find a nice loving home! I'm happy that she fit right in, and I bet she'll be a joy to have around.

Most of the laws governing animals in that county are directed towards dog fights, chaining and such.
Also, the moment some town amends existing laws to cover fleas or the like, you'll have people all over the internet complaining and petitioning that their rights are being violated and that people should mind their own business.

You can't win that way. It is a good thing when suffering animal finds a good home.

Thanks Beryl, we feel pretty lucky to have her and I am proud to announce she is flea free after only a few days.

I can't even begin to imagine how relieved she must feel now.
