‘We’re not being cruel’ say puppy farm owners

7:36am Thursday 25th October 2007

The owners of a puppy farm raided by the RSPCA last week have hit back at allegations of neglect.

Police and RSPCA inspectors stormed the Oak Tree Farm pet shop and kennels in Stanton Lane, Kington St Michael, on October 17, following claims of squalid and cramped conditions.

The owner refused to give her name to the Gazette. However, in July, Sally Griggs put in a restrospective application to North Wiltshire District Council for a change of use to use the residential gypsy site to breed and kennel dogs.

In March this year she applied to the district council for a breeder's licence and for a pet shop. A council officer inspected the site and suggested certain improvements to buildings which were carried out. The site was then inspected again by the council and a vet, and the licence was granted.

The owner this week spoke of her heartache at seeing some of her dogs taken away and the battle she faces to clear her name.

She said: "This has been an absolute nightmare. I love every single puppy here and would never let them come to any harm.

"The 23 dogs the RSPCA have taken away have all been split up and taken to Bath or Bristol - it's heartbreaking to see litters and families broken up.

"They took a mother and her runt puppy from a litter of Cocabichons but left the rest of the puppies who still needed her milk. They've been pining for their mother ever since.

"I begged the RSPCA officers to take a few more dogs to make sure brothers and sisters were kept together.

"They checked over every single other dog we had and gave them clean bills of health. The only crime we were guilty of is having a few more animals than we should have, but that is because I can't bear to see dogs turned away."

An RSPCA spokesman said it was acting on reports from previous customers who were concerned about conditions at the farm, and who claimed the dogs they had bought subsequently needed veterinary treatment.

Sarah Stackman, of Lysley Close, Pewsham, bought her five-month-old cocker spaniel, Marley, from the farm in July.

She said: "Ever since we got Marley we knew something was not quite right and, after getting him checked out, the vet revealed he had kennel cough, mange and an ear infection.

"The vet has told us that the boils under his skin causing the mange could only have been picked up at the kennels.

"I have had to pay out £200 so far in vet bills and he is still ill but battling on."

Mrs Stackman said she has left messages with the farm but is yet to receive a response.

Cathy Angel, who lives in Chippenham, but did not want to give her full address, bought Charlie, a four-year-old Yorkshire Terrier, from the farm in July. She said she has had a large vet's bill for an operation to remove the dog's rotten teeth.

But the pet shop owner said all dogs were sold with a warranty which meant they could be returned within 72 hours. She also highlighted the farm's success in selling an average of 20 puppies every week.

She said: "People don't like the ideas of puppy farms but we get hundreds of calls every week." People always want puppies.

"We are now waiting to hear whether the dogs will come back to us or whether they will be re-homed."

RSPCA investigations are continuing.

Cathy Angel, who lives in Chippenham, but did not want to give her full address, bought Charlie, a four-year-old Yorkshire Terrier, from the farm in July. She said she has had a large vet's bill for an operation to remove the dog's rotten teeth.

1. I was never asked for my address, and im NOT in chippenham

2.i also said its common for yorkies to have teeth problems.

3. i also said the yorkie was rescued by oak tree, from a breeder that wasnt taking care of it.

4. i also said the farmwas in a clean condition when i went.

5. all the dogs/puppies seemed happy, and the owners were helpful.

guess when you talk to a reporter they only print what they want, or think will make a good story.
i wont be making the same mistake twice.

The article today infers that the Stackmans made a complaint to the authorities, which they did not, and at no time did they mention cruelty, but as the RSPCA raided with the police in tow, it would suggest that they had made previous investigations, I would not have thought they would just burst in somewhere,and seize dogs, without some previous cautions or visits?

The last line of this story reveals how standards have dropped on the Getzworse. Just Muckraking.For balance they should also ask for comments favourable?
Would they ask if anyone else had been beaten up/robbed/ harmed by the Marlboro toerag featured here recently? No they would not, though it would be a public service if they did.
I am not fond of travellers, and made remarks to that effect here;however when I saw the dogs on the TV news that night,it was obvious that although the conditions there were below par, and not a place I would be happy to buy a dog from, the dogs themselves appeared to be in a reasonable state, not dirty starved or subject to cruelty, just lower standards of breeding and housing than I would want to see.
The woman concerned seems to care about her dogs, perhaps she should take some professional advice about caring for dogs?

Selling a dog with mange and and kennel cough is terrible,not only for the poor dog and owners but the all dogs in the community!
I would like to know how thorough the council are when issuing licences,not very by the looks of things? If the seller thinks so much of the dogs in her care WHY did she not know they were sick ?
Have trading standards been informed as they can certainy advise owners on how to get some of their money back.
Why do people pay so much money for a mongrel? Cocabichons ? is that a joke?
Make no mistake people breed dogs for the MONEY,NOTHING ELSE,shame on them all when thousands of dogs are put to sleep in this country every year.
I would ask anyone who has bought a sick pup from these people or anywhere else to visit our website http://www.dogs-r-us

No jb,I think you will find that is a cross between a cocker spaniel and a bichon and IS A SICK JOKE on the part of the breeder.Designer crosses they are called,just means they can ask more money for the pups than normal with no thought to the welfare or long term health of such a cross.

Looking at dogs r us in Cheshire, Puppylover, yep all my dogs have been neutered,by the dogs trust when they come from Dogs Trust, where they know me as some one that takes on older dogs with problems now and all the rescue dogs I had in the past. When I did breed from other dogs, I made sure they went to responsible dog lovers, and I kept in touch for most of their lives, in two cases that was 19 years.
Kathy, I am a Jack Russell fan for many years, one of them is a staffy/russell cross, sadly too old to have pups; both rescue dogs with problems from previous life.Now they are just living in comfort, watching strictly come dancing!!So puppylover, please don't lecture me on responsible dog ownership, I have had dogs before you were born.

my partner purchased a west highland terrier from there for my birthday. have to say we looked at alot of dogs there and i acn assure you if anything was wrong we would of walked away and gained advice from local authorities this however was not the case. all the dogs were friendly even the weideramer who was being rehomed due to biting a postman lol. the cages were all clean the dogs were all groomed some were even in play pens outside due to the weather being nice. the staff were friendly and extremely helpful with our choosing of the correct dog for us. not sure if it is possible for standards to drop that far in such a short amount of time. the people that were unhappy with their choice have the chance to return the dog after being examined by a vet ref the rotton teeth have you been in contact to see if any of the other litter had the same problem if this is the case then maybe you didnt see the right parents to the dog because that would be on my list of things to check. vet bills can be handled with pet insurance not a problem and any sane person would have this due to the cost of vet bills but then again if the dog has kennel cough and/or mange then maybe the vets need to be visited by the RSPCA for not picking that up on the first examination if one took place at all.

If you read what i wrote properly, you would see that i said OAK TREE RESCUED MY YORKIE FROM A SO CALLED BREEDER THAT WAS NOT TAKING CARE OF THERE DOGS. so giving the poor little chap a chance of a BETTER life. I also pointed out that OAK TREE WAS IN GOOD CLEAN CONDITION WHEN I WENT...I WAS INFACT STICKING UP FOR THE FARM,yes there is more that can be done to improve any farm, however i think they do care enough to want to improve.

As for insurance, i have 5 dogs and a cat, so it would cost a fortune to insure them all, so i pay my vet each week a set amount, so if any of my animals are ill, they can have treatment without worrying if the insurance will pay out.

I contacted the RSPCA when my old neighbours had their dog shut up in a shed outside. They would put him in at about 7pm and let him out at 8am - that's a long time for a dog to be shut away. He used to bark and howl constantly, a happy dog doesn't do this. We started to notice that if it was raining they wouldn't let the dog out as it meant getting wet to get to him! One day, they came home from work after leaving the dog shut away due to the weather and he was dead. They didn't take him to the vet, they took him to their friends farm and buried him next to the river!! He was a lovely dog, a black lab about 4 years old - he deserved better but the RSPCA couldn't be bothered to investigate, then it was too late!

We bought a blue rhone from Oak Tree Farm at the end of August 07. She had kennel cough and needed a vet as soon as we got her home. She had feeding problems as well. We felt that the farm delayed our arrival by not given the correct address in order to clean the place up first. The pups mum was filthy and couped up in a small space with several other large dogs. Our pup had excrement on her head. There was another puppy which looked pretty ill, but the owner said it was just tired. Our so called blue rhone has a distinct red tinge to her coat. We would not have taken her back to prevent distress to our daughter. It certainly gave the impression of being a business. Our puppy is petrified of everything. The farm need adhoc visits by the authorities.

We thought the farm was fairly clean but thought it was strange that we did'nt see the mother of the puppy? Many told us that she didnt look like a pure jack russell.

Me and my partner bought our 4 year old westie from Oak Tree, and there was no problem there at all, as fair as we could see all dogs were kept in clean, spacious kennels and were well looked after. Our dog was healthy when we got and obvioously still is now and we have never had one problem with her. I would recommend Oak tree to all my friends as they were friendly, helpful and knew about animals and were kind to them. Which is far more than i can say for some places.
