FINALLY!-ALMOST HEAVEN IS NO MORE!

[Jacquie Yorke (DRC)]

Just got the call .....Skip Eckhart's appeal was denied for the last time this morning and at 12:00 this afternoon HSUS was there with the Bureau Of Dog Law Enforcement, Emmaus law enforcement, volunteers, trucks, triage tents and a court order to seize dogs........ As I type, they are in the process of seizing 250 dogs .....Almost Heaven is out of business for good in PA!....The dogs are being treated in an emergency shelter located at the Farm Show Complex in Harrisburg and will be with various rescue organizations in the area to be placed for adoption. Some will be available for adoption within the next week.........Please keep in mind that whille yes justice is finally served, this does not prevent Eckhart from relocating to another state,applying for a USDA licence and starting all over again.....Check out the news tonight and tomorrow morning for details.

[Jacquie Yorke (DRC)]

Bill Smith is the Founder and Exective Director of Mainline Animal Rescue in PA...He is the man who raised 10K to put a billboard up in Chicago outside of Harpo studios requesting that Oprah do a show on puppy mills....She did ..and he was on the show providing inside info and footage of the puppy mill situation in Pennsylvania...He has been a public advocate fighting for the closure of Almost Heaven for over seven years...and the DRRC is proud to call him partner and friend......

That is the best news I have heard all day. Let's all pray they get great forever homes and have a wonderful life filled with love to erase the terrible memories from that hell hole.

[April Cliber]

YEA! How wonderful! I hope all those poor dogs find wonderful homes and live the rest of their lives in luxury! It is truly beyond horrendous how these dogs lived! I just can't stand to see the footage.
