Angie J This women that I met explained to me how she lefted her three dogs to starve To death. when she moved out of Wyoming. She further then told me that they would never find her for the cruelty charges. Can I please find out how I can go about delivering this information to the corrections of animal neglect. 12/29/2008

wiley felton There is a woman fighting to get help for large animals in her area of eden wy. A neighbor has let his animals starve to death and the local authorities have done nothing, the Vet in the area has refused to get involved, what is wrong with this picture? Somebody needs to get involved with this. 1/14/2008
Tasha animal cruely needs help to be stop not critasized. Stop sitting there writing stupid comments and get up and do something. I do not believe in animal Cruelty, but do something about it because if you just complain nothing will be done. 1/9/2007
Ashley i think that we need to make it a law in every state. all citizins should own up if they see an animal being abused. 5/10/2006
Dorene Eggen We need to do something about the people who hits the animals that people own to do time in jail because there is to much abuse on animals here in wyo.3/31/06 3/31/2006
crystal i can't believe that some people call themselves a animal sanctuary here in rock springs we have a lady that should be shut down its very sad filthy animals in poor condition and it seems the authortys keep looking away it will cost to much money to shut here down so the animals suffer 7/22/2005
Mary Ann What are the standards to qualify as an animal sanctuary in Wyoming as pretaining to domestic animals? What can be done if there are many animals contained in a small area and not having the area cleaned of manuer? 1/25/2005
Kristi Blakely I see cruelty to animals all the time. My husband was trying to feed a starved dog and people called the cops on him. When the cops came he informed them that the man who owned the dog was not feeding or watering him. The policeman told my husband that if he was still able to stand he was fine. I have not forgotten this nor will I. The man got away and who knows what happened to the poor dog. I am disgusted with what happens to animals. They have feelings just like we do and I wish that someone would do to these people what they do to their animals. Maybe they might realize what it does feel like instead of going to jail for the night. 5/1/2004
tobi meakins why is it that if somebody kills and tortures an person they get locked away for ever or get the death penalty, but if sombody does that to an animal, they get a slap on the wrist? this is disgusting. i cant even imagine what sort of person could be so cruel hearted and cowardly to do this to an animal. penalties need to be tougher as far as im concerened 6/3/2003
