stream li harsh treatment. and and it certainly belies britain's reputation as a place of civil liberties and civilized treatment of people like that but back in 30 minutes see the. a k c of its revenue model registers dogs and registers litters so it's involved in

a transactional relationship with those breeders and obviously the ones producing the most dogs are the largest scale breeders so why is it going to crack down on those large scale breeders and sacrifice the revenue from a rigorous program that stops people from confining animals denying them vet care exposé them to extremes of even cold if they're going to lose revenue the american kennel club prides itself on being the only purebred registry in the united states with an ongoing routine kennel inspection program with a dedicated team of field inspectors casey says that it inspects channels but they don't make any of those inspection records available. they say that they've got rigorous standards but they really don't what those standards are real terms they say that they kick people out but we don't really have

a comprehensive record of when they're doing that or what the consequences are even if they can still keep breathing and they can still keep operating so what's the value of their inspections program there in force and efforts for all we know are completely. meaningless we don't know what they even inspect for when they go into these facilities because they don't make their inspection records public quite frankly if they were meaningful inspections there would be no reason not to make them public. while the a k c boasts of a rigorous inspection program in 2011 only $1500000.00 of their $59000000.00 in revenue was spent to employ just 9 inspectors across the entire united states. big. is a group that says it's the dogs champion but in practical terms

is consistently leading the fight against efforts to establish humane dog breeding standards in the states at the federal level. over $5000.00 killed inspections last year. the american kennel club. we make all this possible because you make us possible. just or your dog the only us registry that matters is an a.g.c. dot org and or ever we advance that sort of legislation radical not far reaching just basic fundamental anything that a pet owner would think is a minimal standard of care the casey opposes it since 2009 the a k c as opposed over 100 different bills regulations ordnances the protect dogs in 2012 alone the a k c opposed to nebraska state bill that would require commercial breeders to have

regular on site visits by a veterinarian a louisiana state bill that would prohibit all dog owners from stacking crates a rhode island state bill that the a k c deemed dangerous that would make it unlawful for dog owners to keep. a dog confined in a pen cage or other shelter for more than 14 hours a proposed ordinance in shelby county tennessee that would make it a violation to leave a companion animal unattended in a vehicle for more than one hour when the temperature is above 70 degrees or below $35.00 degrees why is the american till close to dogs best friend opposing this legislation that says that once a year you've got to have a vet examine these dogs or you can't breathe them every single cycle or you can't have more than 50 breeding females at an operation why would a group pose that well they were there because they're making money from those large scale operations. while the public does not have access to

a k c inspection report many pet stores across the united states emphasize to their potential customers that their facilities are a k.c. approved and inspected one such company is pet land the largest chain of pet stores selling puppies in the united states while most pet lands are independently owned and operated the company's relationship with the a k c is a central focus in nearly every store. it's not unusual to see a dog that's a case a registered in a pet store. a case she could be targeting this major distribution channel saying we're not going to endorse pet stores if we see our dogs in those stores because we don't feel that is a good means by which a dog is being raced on and unfortunately had not taken a position. where your thoughts were. going through.

so i thought. this is really the only. thing that's not the case is. there. i actually bought my 1st stock from pat we have. in my head i was saving that dog from the cage only because it was way too big for the small cage it was in there was poop and he just likes a and i went back to visit and visit and visit well that is very pushy if you've ever been in a paddling and they want you to buy the dog no matter what and you know they give you all these options i would visit the dog it just started me looking to the cage and i code you want to go to a puppy play room and then they'd give you a toy to get to play with this dog and you started falling in love with the dog and then you're broke and so they're like here's a credit card if you will help you pay for the dog and you know he would really love to go home with you and so they're trying to play on your emotions and on your pocketbook your reasoning apparently in store with your family and you can help.

you. through your family and now maybe you are asking yourself where did this come from let's take a look at the journey that when puppies make before writing our story. while pet land maintains that it does not purchase from substandard breeders there's no doubt that the vast majority of puppies sold in their stores come from large scale commercial kennels where the parents of those puppies will spend their whole lives in a cage. 2009 the humane society of the united states released an exhaustive investigation into shipments over 3 months of more than $15000.00 puppies across the country the report determined that 95 percent of the puppies in pet land stores come from large scale commercial kennels and i work at a gym right next to a pet land and i see it all the time and i even stopped and said you know even to a young couple you know with kids hey do me a favor before you go in there you know google puppy mills we know are popular as i

said why are you going to buy a dog. i know rescues that have puppies right now what are you looking for a lot of the dogs that are purchased in pet stores we we end up with them because the families can't afford their medical care. a birth defect or some chronic problem or worms or parvo or anything that these animals can pick up in the actual milk and they always seem to be you know we can state always most of the puppies that are coming from these large scale factory farming kind of operations are being sold in pet stores so when you go into a pet store and you see that beautiful little puppy that's a jumping out and or really wants the attention from you most people have no idea that the mother and father are back somewhere any factory farm type a setting where it can be horrendous it's not just pet lamb franchises they get the vast majority of their inventory from the primary states for puppy mills

independent pet stores choose to seek out the same states a stark example of the supply chain leads directly from holmes county ohio to a single pet store in patterson new jersey. petite pups inspection reports obtained by ohio voters for companion animals show that in 2012 over 300 puppies from puppy mills and holmes county were sold wholesale to d n g only one reason would seemingly compel the owner of d n g to seek out breeders located over 7 hours away the price for breeders simply selling to a pet shop that's not about placing that animal with a family for the rest of the life that's really about the money pets are puppies are puppy mill puppies because a reputable breeder somebody who cares about their animals and wants to know where they're going and any breeder that is in it for the love of dogs and they they love

what they're doing they're good breeder they're going to have as many questions for you as you have for them no good reputable breed or will sell a dog or any internet or sell a dog to a broker to sell to a pet store that's not going to a good breeder or one of those. you are you always have to go and see even the parents of the dog that you're purchasing if a breeder does not want you to see the conditions that the parents are living in they're almost guaranteed it's a puppy mill. this is largely a marketing sort of enterprise were people can register the litters the puppies and you get the halo effect that this isn't a casey register dollars or litter when in reality it has no practical meaning when it comes to animal welfare they see papers mean absolutely nothing you know

and when you come push comes to shove a hasty when they're backed into o'connor was and as i said do with humaneness or the quality of the dog only means who the mother and the father is there are in favor of breeding dogs and the more dogs that are bred the more money they make if those dogs are registered with the case they for years and years and years in fact even to this day registration income from registration fees and puppies are subsidizing the dog shows that the a hasty puts on because the registration fees for dog shows don't meet the amount of money or the expenses of putting them on so historically they have always subsidized their dog shows for registry fees so this is why they're going to see enough of their own money and that's what i always say when people go to the westminster dog show go in there knowing that this show has been subsidized by the croly of puppy mills because the a c. will not stop papering dogs from commercial dog breeders and they oppose legislation when you go to improve the standards of care. 2010 missouri had an

estimated 3000 commercial dog breeders and was the largest supplier of puppies to pet stores across the country nearly 1600 breeders with the u.s.d.a. license was more than the next 3 see. dates combined in the hopes of improving the lives of dogs living in missouri puppy mills national and state animal welfare organizations focused on a ballot initiative that would later become known as proposition be over 190000 signatures from missouri residents were collected and the measure made it to the ballot in the 2010 election. i walked through the streets of moscow now to blood 100 people i was found 8 of them would have the changes of loops in the blood that they don't have to keep because in order for them to have leukemia they need the d.n.a. changes but they also need an environment that's receptive and one of the biggest

areas of growth of medicine in the future is be targeting viral changing so the cancer doesn't want to. build their economy in such a way as bad spawn the crisis of the crop of virus and for that there is an economic i don't think and the us could inherit a benefit of that economic benefit a similarly the us build its economy in a way that cause other kind of extra analogies that are highly detrimental to the u.s. economy. in a world of big part of the lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that made stream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door. and shouting past each

other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. prob be was something that was in the works for many years because missouri is the puppy mill capital of the united states probably simply sought to impose humane breeding standards and limits on the size of the puppy mills you know what i started out here paying for all this different weather tour and pictures of puppy mills things like that after 2 weeks i just forgot all that literature it was a copy of prop because it wasn't that people wanted to support puppy bills or called you the dogs it was is this a stereo that infected other things it was a campaign of fear and misinformation fear that he was going to

mysteriously morph into a ban on all rearing of animals and agriculture you know they said that this would affect farm animals you know it and then of course when they were confronted on it and showed the wall that they'd say well it's a slippery slope but there was still continue to go in a rural area and convinced everybody that this was going to shut down the family farm and it just created mass hysteria and it made a really difficult campaign it didn't deal with cattle deal with pigs it in deal with chickens it in the old any other species the language was explicit and anyone who's a 1st year law student could say with definitive precision that it just applied to dogs in space a clear way to one of the dominoes in what i call the line of dominoes out here in eliminating all of domesticated animals you know dogs cats then you go into livestock arena forces and so forth and then develop measure campaign you don't necessarily need to convince people that your position is right you just need to

sow enough confusion so that people maintain the status quo and vote no was no way to defend having this so instead they want to change the subject to all these other animals. that people will respond to an emotional way this isn't really about puppies this is about your chicken and your beef and your pork and this group wants to take those off your dinner plate it's about emotional triggers that they're going to they're going to press those buttons to get people to respond emotionally oh it's basically a form of lying i mean let's just cut to the chase the way this proposition was about dogs but initially wants you to think it's about all these other animals because that will scare the hell that. really is an issue for anyone to like speak meat protein in their diet thank you very much thank you kelly smith marketing and commodities director for missouri farm bureau much more to come on this and other issues as we broadcast from the missouri farm bureau offices here in jefferson city

missouri stay with us it's half time on average. interestingly my wife and i had made a plan for we settle we put on a piece of paper what our dream of a farm was. after a long search i was showed this and it matched exactly. so that's why we here. we lived our lives here pretty much you know or happy leave with we raised our family we raised our kids we feel very comfortable here. we didn't feel threatened at all you know and i mean i would have never at that time suggested to you that clean air was a vital important thing in my life. they were going to raise hogs ok and at the time i did not know how many hogs were going to raise and it turned out that now they raise $80000.00 hogs and 3 miles north of.

the farmland food facility in milan missouri is owned by smithfield foods the largest hog and pork processor in the world with revenues exceeding $13000000000.00 into. 113. the operation north of me is called green hills. there isn't a single pig in there that ever seen as the green hills there isn't a single pig down there that ever sees the valley. so these are wonderful names but in this are these factory buildings where these hogs are housed in these big barns with little fresh air with no sunlight with little movement with no grass no nothing you hear the name valley view and you think all little piggy running on green grass you know just kind of smooching out there living in the sun you don't see that. these are feeder pigs in the amounts old weights are just incredible and you sit in your backyard with

your family and you eat dinner or you sit outside on a warm summer night and all over sudden this thing rolls in and i were caught in a trespass it just trespass on your property gulfs you and it's there in the media just like it's just like if a visitor coming that you have not invited relationship with the missouri farm bureau radically changed when he began to complain about the daily waste in odors emitting from smithfield foods that 3 farm while he assumed the farm bureau would support a local independent farmer against his new corporate neighbor. was left to fight alone. i felt abandoned and also felt that i was working for the wrong organization for for so many years because all of a sudden this operation this organization backed allen and it supposedly is a farm organization these supposedly supports individual independent farmers and

all of a sudden they were siding with industry and they are siding with industry to this very day they campaigned against prop b. began immediately after it was approved for the ballot at a gathering of the most powerful agricultural. forces in missouri at the stinson morrison and hector law firm in addition to members of the dog breeding industry the meeting included the leadership of the missouri farm bureau the missouri pork producers association and the missouri soybean association at this meeting these groups agreed to fight prop be in a coordinated effort with the dog breeding industry. 2 front groups emerge from the meeting one which would eventually be called missouri farmers care and the alliance for truth while these front groups seem to have sprung out of thin air it was actually a highly coordinated effort financed largely by corporate agriculture nearly 82

percent of total contributions to missouri farmers care originated from 3 corporate agriculture trade groups and their respective political action committees. the missouri farm bureau the missouri pork producers and the missouri soybean association while the missouri farmers care campaign highlighted the positive role of missouri farmers in society the alliance for truth was focused on misrepresenting the clear language improper be the majority of the funding for the alliance for truth was funneled through missouri farmers care by the same agricultural trade groups the trade groups involved represent the interests of their member corporations in missouri these corporations include some of the largest agribusiness is in the united states month sento tyson cargill and smithfield foods while these trade groups use their vast financial resources

opposing prop b. the corporations that ultimately provided the majority of the funding for the campaign remained silent simply put without the financial support of corporate agriculture the puppy mills of missouri would not have had the ability to mount the ally. for truth or missouri farmers care which were largely responsible for the opposition to proposition b. alliance for truth that could be for anything you know but they can't call themselves you know friend group in favor of herding dogs so they have to come up with them other word to just totally distract you from the issue at hand it's not about the dogs it's about liberalism growth of government improved into your life has a proud tradition of dog breeding for hunting home companionship and just best friends to enforce existing law against animal abuse but vote no to the big government liberal it's on the proposition paid for by a large for true mark paterson treasurer i mean they would be fending of goes with

the thing i mean a license for truth is literally just a front so there has been a tremendous amount a shocking amount of organized opposition to efforts to increase the standards of care for dogs bred in commercial breeding facilities and most of that opposition quite frankly is coming from huge agricultural groups and industry these are groups that have nothing to do with dogs have to do is look at who is funding these fans to see who's really benefiting from them it's not the individual families manchus who you know may believe in some of the messaging that these groups are putting forward but it's really the major players and big ai with business who are benefiting and it's the industry why defense that's going on is not to protect the poor rancher i mean those guys are getting screwed i have to stink interest in the future of this farm and the future of this community. corp their interest is making money their interest is not in the community their interest is not what

is being left behind community interests. you 0. product be very specific it was a bill dressed commercial breeding dogs. not chickens not cows not pigs but that's what the opposition says it that's the misinformation that they gave to people in the state of missouri to scare people it was purely fear tactics on their part and it really ended up being at the expense of the thousands of dogs that suffer on a daily basis in the state of missouri every signature beyond the bell was signed by a missouri every vote that passed property and the law was passed by a missouri rosie missourians here and this was not i doubt a state you know if you say no those are the same interests that you know they might have right in the money so we can get the word out that they didn't go to the

polls obviously it was the sir resonance of both and that's. why they are so oh you know as though there were. very. good bites at you one of the have for so we came very close fortunately because of those mass hysteria that was just being spread in the rural areas and there really do people really believe i mean i talked to him one on one that they really believed this was going to close down the farms going to be a big you for joining us all i hear on missouri governor jay nixon will he find a bill changing proposition b. even though voters already approved it probably used during the emotions of missourians on both sides of the issue but it was ultimately approved by 51 percent of voters the court of altering it is an outrage and it was supporters going to only a couple of 100 lawmakers have come to treated their judgment for the judgment about a 1000000 voter nancy weller says she can't bear to see another dog pulled out of

a puppy mill she and more than a 1000000 other missouri voters pushed for prop be the very bill wall makers are now working to change the ink wasn't drawing on the formalizing of the final election results. well state lawmakers in missouri said we're going to repeal probably several of them. bills to repeal property in its entirety immediately after the vote of the people you know we're not out to put these people out of business for say we just want them to comply with good standards here but instead they wanted to repeal the whole thing they threw it all out it was just ridiculous 5 months after missouri voters approved a new puppy mill all the law is changing they even changed the name of the law from the puppy mill cruelty act to the canine coolly prevention act and it does remove the breeding dog limit and some requirements of the living conditions of animals it is a constitutional process and when citizens decide they can do that the legislature

should defer to the will of the people how do you run a government when the voters go to the polls they will win something that is just ignore the result and that's the way things run and then i have to think what is best for these you know as you know swallow your pride and sit down and work out something earn going to take the high road in and say no no we're taking everything we want all i know you have to do what's best for you as well you got it. is your media a reflection of reality. in the world transformed. what will make you feel safe. isolation community. are you going the right way or are you being

led. away. what is true what's his face. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the depths. forum made in the shallows. the russian state television propaganda machine propaganda outlet propaganda tools we are in an information war. is the can change the world tomorrow. we use an old you tube videos the sleepless night shift today it's the longest network. pusher brushes russia russia and russia say. to feel the fear that they will

actually use russia to live and i really have to put joins up to see you then on r g. 4 are so proud and still. are just going through a number. why have you not shut down our t.v. on you tube it's a propaganda machine mr walker. so the politicians have basically stuck the american public with the public teat to negotiate for drugs and both parties who are financed very heavily by the pharmaceutical industry have done this so when your own people vote they should look at how much does this politician get from the power pharmaceutical industry that's.

syria defends its military campaign against terrorist groups and imagine that the un security council western powers called but truth even if you get. the chair of the us democratic national committee calls for the have any delayed result in iowa to be reassessed they made confounds of irregularities. a key regional prime minister stepped down in germany one time to being elected that they made a huge bowl out say the union stuck between the german chancellor is policy and the right wing alternative for germany.
