Inside the barn at Pretty Penny Kennels -- whelping pens and runs

 

       Pretty Penny Kennels, Plymouth, WI — Row upon row of whelping pens (left) and indoor/outdoor runs (right). The indoor-outdoor runs were used only by the Labradors and larger "hunting" breeds; the rest of the dogs at this "farm" were kept in wire cages resembling rabbit hutches.

       These pens were piled with feces (the dark spot on the floor is "run-off") and little natual light was available. This photo was computer-enhanced so that you can see the details; the smell was indescribable.

       Pretty Penny Kennels is described in detail in A Visit To A Wisconsin "Puppy Farm" and in WTMJ's report, "Inside a Puppy Farm"

     FINAL UPDATE: Mr. Schulz is out of the "dog business" forever. He died on June 28, 2022.

     15 May 2014 UPDATE: In 2011, Pretty Penny Kennels applied for and was granted a "temporary license" under WI Act 90. However, Mr. Schulz declined to upgrade his facilities to comply with the new regulations, so was denied a permanent license.

     Under the law, Mr. Schulz may still sell fewer than 25 dogs a year, from three litters. If you have reason to suspect that he is selling more dogs, or are concerned about the conditions in which his remaining dogs are being kept, please see our Filing a Complaint page for details on how to contact DATCP with your concerns!
