If these operations are even regulated, which many are not, APHIS or a state agency or law enforcement
typically turn a blind eye, dithering over their authority to shut them down, pretending these are somehow legitimate «businesses» that should be supported, ignoring that these sleazy operators make their money from animal cruelty and leave communities with unwanted dogs in their shelters, environmental and health hazards from improperly
disposed of carcasses and
waste, infestation, and wastewater and other sewage problems.
