There is no clean water, no dry, clean place to lie down. The dogs are filthy, their coats full of urine and feces. Where there is water, it is mostly green. The kennel walls are damaged and unrepaired, giving the dogs free access to each other's kennels. Multiple dogs in one kennel results in continual fighting, injury, and death.
Most females are pregnant by whatever male breached the walls.
Puppies are in kennels with several adult dogs. These uncles and aunts, brothers and sisters attack, maim, and sometimes kill. Sometimes the babies are only injured and must endure their pain until death comes. At this mill, a mother dog is found in a shed with a litter of pups. The windows and doors are shut, there is no water, and it is 98 degrees.
