Jackson County Animal Control
Jackson County Animal Control sells massive numbers of dogs and cats to research dealers. In 2002, 781 live dogs and cats were sold to Hodgins Kennels, Inc., Michigan State University and Midwest Animal Services in Stockbridge Michigan (blood donors). Of course, Jackson County Animal Control does not advertise sales to dealers on it’s website.
Please contact Jackson County Commissioners and let them know you object to the sales of living animals to Class B Dealers. Jackson County Board of Commissioners. Jethro's Place wrote to the Commissioners requesting that sales of pets to research immediately cease. Jethro's Place letter to the Commissioners.
If you would like to help in the effort to ban sales to research dealers in Jackson County, please email info@jethrosplace.com.
Change is only possible if Jackson County residents speak out, loudly and often. Tell your neighbors, family members, classmates and coworkers about Animal Control selling pets to research. Become part of our petition drive and collect signatures to be submitted to the Commissioners. You are their bosses, let them know how strongly you feel.
