News

Local authorities raided the Whispering Oaks Kennel and found what the Humane Society of the United States labeled as one of the most prolific puppy mills in the state’s history. By the end of the day nearly 1,000 neglected and abused dogs were freed from the horrendous industry that traps hundreds of thousands of dogs in a dismal cycle of suffering. Owner, Sharon Roberts surrendered them when a search warrant was issued for Department of Environmental Protection violations. Officials said this is the largest puppy mill rescue operation in the state of West Virginia and it’s likely to be the largest nationwide. The Best Friends Animal Sanctuary is caring for the dogs now. Photos by HSUS.
