1353 Sky FoxSHE SHOULD BE ASHAMED! And isnt. I have seen every segment on this and read every article - being a Florida Native and it SICKENS ME! Fry her ass to the fullest extent! I know her personally and to her - the dogs are a check. Yet she wants to do NOTHING to care for them. She carries a non-chalant attitude toward all of this. She is nothing more than a self - entitled BRAT that thinks this is all a big joke. AS A TAX PAYER - I WANT HER TO SEE - WE DONT FIND THE HUMOR! Let her - PLEASE - sit in a cell like those dogs did. JUSTICE IS JUSTICE - what comes around - goes around! Make it happen or give me my taxes back.
1354 Gilbert LoeraI am abhorred at this and want it to stop. Somebody do something!

1360 Roxann ContrenchisAnimal Cruelty deserves a punishment of jail time and fines.
1361 AnonymousWhy would anyone even consider returning the animals to that woman?! She clearly does not know proper care for animals and does not feel the need to know. People without respect for animals SHOULD NOT HAVE ANIMALS!
1362 Anonymousthis is insane.

1365 KathyHuntoonWhat is wrong with a judge like that?? He's the sort of person that would send a child back to an abusive environment and then we would be reading about that child in an obituary a few weeks later.
1366 Kimberly HiceTo return these poor dogs to this horrible woman so that she can make a profit is the most disgusting thing that I have heard! Please hear us animal lovers and do not return these dogs to Ms. Hughes, what she did is deplorable and she will only do it again!
1367 Angela VanCleve
1368 Cheryl DeRoseI am sickened by the thought of these defenseless little babies being returned to this cruel woman. If you allow this, you are just as bad as she is and you should be removed from the bench. Open your eyes, listen to the people who have seen the horror of the mill and do the right thing. The dogs have no power, they depend on us and the justice system to protect them from all forms of cruelty.
1369 Heather WolfPlease do not let a technicality cause more suffering for these animals. Please do not allow the animals to return to Ms. Hughes. Be the voice and action of compassion to see they deserve a better life than that offered to them by Ms. Hughes. Thank you!

1381 Jodi GrimmThis abomination should be put behind bars and left to rot there. If there had been children that's exactly what would have happened to her. What do you judges think giving all this Veterinary care to these poor animals and giving them right back to her. What do you think is going to happen to them ?? These animals should've been put in foster care till they could've been placed in loving forever homes. Not given back to this animal. She doesn't even deserve to be called human !!!!! What are a few fines to her. When she gets those poor dogs back she'll be making 25 times that in a month. Judge McNary please do not return these dogs to Theresita Hughes. If you won't put her in jail where she belongs, then never allow her to own another animal for as long as she lives. She gives the rest of us hardworking pet lovers who work 2 jobs to pay for the care of our pets a bad name. Please, Please do not return even 1 dog to her...
1382 Pam HohnerleinIt is very upsetting to me that a judge would allow these dogs to be placed back in harms way!!

1386 Melissa MaroffTeresita Hughes needs to spend every waking minute in a cramped wire cage. Now it should be her dogs' turn to profit.

1392 Constance IngersollPlease rethink your judgement and overturn it. The animals have finally been released from their lives of hell and torment. Have they not suffered enough due to the selfishness and greediness of a woman who has no morals, compassion, sensitivity to the feelings of a living creature or integrity. What is the judicial system for if not to protect the well being of all humans and animals. Put yourself in the life of the animal who spent every day hungry, cramped, not being able to breathe properly, not being able to exercise to work the muscles, no kind human touch or word to soothe their fears and do the right thing. Do not release these animals back to the woman who had no feelings for them in the first place. She will only do the same thing again, people like this do not change.
1393 Faye Montgomery
1394 Lizza ReedAll you have to see are before and after pictures to know that these animals were in serious need of help!
1395 Janet Wannamaker
1396 Jeanne FalzaaranoIts absolutily insane to even consider giving her back any animals! Please dont do this!!
1397 Terri AllenHas the judge seen videos of puppy mills? All judges and political leaders should have to watch them. We need to do something to stop this cruelty.
1398 Deborah RossSomeone she put Ms Hughes in the same condition she put the dogs. I support the petitions
1399 NancyWho would even CONSIDER handing back living beings to this cruel woman? This is insanity. She should be vigorously prosecuted for animal neglect and animal cruelty. She most definitely should NOT be rewarded by receiving tens of thousands of dollars of individual donations for HER profit-making business, then receiving tens of thousands of taxpayer dollars to monitor her cruel and inhumane behavior. Good grief -- use some sense here!
1400 Alyssa DillonI am a 22 year old UCF alumna from Palm Harbor, Florida. My mother showed me the newspaper article about Teresita Hughes’ puppy mill located in Tarpon Springs, Florida. It was horrifying to imagine innocent puppies being forced to live in absolute filth. My family and I immediately wanted to do anything we could to help so we volunteered to foster both a Yorkie and Pomeranian. We named them T-hee and Lexie because they were simply serial codes to Hughes. Lexie even has the number 2 tattooed inside of her ears! It is unknown what the ages or health issues of these animals are. They both have rotten teeth and crooked legs. They cannot walk straight. When we first got them, their bodies were constantly shaking when we tried to hold or touch them. It took a long time for them to even want to come out of their crates. They did not trust humans in the beginning. We put them in the soft grass in front of my home but they just stood there because they had never touched the earth before. Who knows how many litters of puppies they were forced to have. Their bodies are suffering. We bought nice, clean blankets for them but they lay on the cold tile floor instead. They are not used to having anything sanitary. In the puppy mill, they slept in their own and others’ feces. I wish we could have a veterinarian do more tests to make sure they are healthy but we are not allowed to because we do not have custody of these poor puppies, Hughes still does.
