Hello, my name is Ben. I am incredibly disappointed in the Bloomington community for housing an abusive business like Anthony's Pets in our College Mall. Recently, a petition has brought to light testimonials describing the neglect and suffering the animals at this location experience. From feces covered cages to animals being preened with steroids to appear healthy, it is evident that Anthony's keeps these animals in deplorable conditions. This progressive community should not and does not support this business existing in our city. I'm urging you to take Anthony's out of the ever so popular College Mall. Thank you! I've attached the petition below. Petition: https://www.thepetitionsite.com/985/255/434/shut-down-anthony-pets-now/

Anthonys pets in College Mall operates a business that harms animals by not providing adequate food and space, in addition to obtaining these animals through less than ethical means (puppy mills). The fact that the city of Bloomington has done nothing to look into these conditions is appalling. By continuing to allow this store to operate in a high traffic area of Bloomington, the city sends the message that the ethics and morals of this shop are okay. I implore the city to look into Anthony's pet shop and take immediate action.

Anthony’s Pet store is the most disgusting place I have ever been. I have left crying every time. These dogs are in terrible conditions and are expected to live in very small glass boxes with no comfort at all. They never go outside and most of them always look sick. Get this place shut down

On Saturday September 10th my boyfriend (Bryan Castillo) took my dog Willie to get a bath and groom at House of Paws (aka Pawsitive Grooming, Daisy's Darling Dogs) with Shena as scheduled the day before. At 3:26 pm I received a call that there was an incident with my dog. I was told that she had a small cut that was not bleeding and if they should just hold my dog down and keep grooming or I can come in and hold her down to finish. After the call Bryan Castillo and I went over there to get our dog. When we arrived the groomer brought Willie out, when we saw the cut we were in shock. There was a 2-3 inch laceration between Willie's stomach and leg. The staff was blaming Willie for the incident. The groomers were negligent in handling Willie. We had to drive an 72 miles to the nearest urgent vet at 14069 Mundy Dr, Fischer, Indiana. Our dog received several stables to close the wound.

There is a dead skunk on S. Washington St., between Davis and Grimes. It hasn't been hit yet, and if it's cleaned up quickly, we might be spared the stink!
