    I know, we often get new owners who get their pups from her and they have so many problems. She should be in jail right now for what she does, but pet laws are not that strict here. She calls herself the "Chawhawah Doctor" and belives there are more "natural" ways of treating problems than taking them to a vet. Her real job is at Pizza Hut.[:@]

    Another one like her is this guy who neuters dogs in his own home, he ties a rubberband around their testicals and without any pain meds he cut them clear off. Once in a while we get a dog that was neutered by him with a terrible infection down there. The owner really belived he knew what he was doing and trusted him. So he's gotten a few fines but thats about all that has happen to him.

    So the way I see things even if the owner can't aford to treat the animal they are better off taking it to a vet and having it put down then trusting someone who is crazy like thoes people.

    Im sitting here crying as I think of all the poor animals in the world who are unfortunate enough to end up in the care of people like this... it truly hurts my heart to think of them...
     
    Those people deserve the worst in life, I know thats a strong thing to say... but they do.

    I live in Socorro NM. These people live in Datal and Magdalina, small towns, at least 45 minets from us. Belive me there has been action taken agenst them. I only wish more could be done to stop it. These are only the stories I know about I'm shure there are even more that haven't surfaced yet. It makes me upset every time we have to deal with the result from these people. Usally it's not the abuser themself that brings the animal in, it's the owner who was looking for anouther way to deal with the problem without seeing a vet. This make it even more difficult to directly accuse the abuser. Living in a small town I have learned there are not as many strict laws as there would be in a city. The lady with the chiwhawhas is not allowed to breed them anymore but we still find signs that she still does but don't have proof. Everythig that can be done has been done, I only hope these people get what they deserve![:@]

    Before I was a vet tech I would watch animal planet and ASPCA cops and think how horrible it was that that happens, but it does happen in every town. I was shocked to learn that people do this in my very own little town. I love animals and only wish I could save everyone but there are so manny things that get in the way. On TV we only hear the good outcomes but don't know how many more are out there.

    The stories I tell her are the ones not heard on the news, not know by many and seem to only be ignored when brought up because it's too horrible to deal with. I think we need to be more aware that it does happen and be careful who we trust our pets with. To me my dogs are my children and I only trust a vet to do anything to them regardless of the cost.
