Kansas kennels continue to be investigated,closed
By Elicia Hill Special to the Kansas
Since June 19, animal health authorities have continued to close substandard kennels in Kansas.
Special to the Kansan
On Friday, Ness County Sheriff Gary O'Brien Borel opened a kennel in Utian belonging to a woman who had charged May 9 with cruelty to animals.
Tom Feigel, Ness County prosecutor, said Sharon Young was fine $750 and sentenced to six months in jail. She has not begun serving the sentence.
Pam Binder, animal cruelty officer for the Hays Humane Society, said Young had not compiled with court orders.
"She had been told that she had 60 days to get rid of her animals, not 60
days to neglect them," Binder said. Authorities seized more than 47 dogs. Twenty-four had to be put to sleep due to severe mange infection
Last week, authorities also closed down a substack kennel in Kansas City. Kan., seizing 10 dogs.
On June 19, Attorney General Bob Stephan's office closed down a Topeka kennel within sight of the cannitol building.
Stephan said that 97 dogs were confiscated and that the owners, Steve Scheuerman and Leonard Conger, were charged with animal cruelty and violation of the Kansas Animal Dealers Act.
The men were released after they each posted $500 bond. Their trial is scheduled for July 12.
As authorities continue to close
more kennels, animal shelters must carry the burden of caring for dogs taken from the kennels.
Rep. Ginger Barr, R-Auburn, estimated that it cost $45 a day to pay for each dog's medical care and food. The total cost to care for the 97 dogs seized from the Topeka kennel would be $4.35 daily, she said.
As more kennels are shut down, this burden only will get worse, she said.
Barr said she had donated $1,000, half her campaign money, to Critter Care Co., which collects donations to care for seized dogs and to support the prosecution of substandard kernel owners.
A Topeka pet store donated $5,000 and two kennels donated $1,000 to the fund.
A fund has been established to care for dogs confiscated June 19 from a kennel in Topeka.
Red tape, lawsuits abound around kennel inspections
Bv Elicia Hill

The Kansas Animal Health Department, which has the authority to close substandard kennels, had one conviction this year before the June 19 closing of a Topeka kennel.
On May 9, the department won a conviction against a Utica kennel owner charged with animal cruelty.
Although department records show that many kennels have failed health inspections, the department did not act on them because it was awaiting the outcome of a lawsuit dismissed June 13, Shon Koenig, a state animal health inspector, said last week.
The lawsuit, brought by Margaret Kerr, owner of Kerr Kennels of Silver Lake, charged that it was unconstitutional to have both state and federal laws against animals empowered to seize animals without search warrants.
The lawsuits, filed in March 1989, contended that because the agriculture department licensed and issued the license, it was no need for a state program.
Richard Crawford, a director in the Washington D.C. office of the Department of Agriculture said Kansas was one of the few states that required dog breeders who sold dogs wholesale to be licensed by both the state and the agriculture department.
State Rep. Ginger Barr, R-Auburn, said that in 1988 the state kennel inspection program was instituted because legislators wanted stricter enforcement of animal regulations.
Crawford said department authorities would not close a kennel unless, there was a serious health threat to the dogs.
The department would rather see a breeder come into compliance with the law, he said.
The agriculture department takes up to three years to close down a kennel because four offices in Washington state have since sieged it is brought before authorities in the kennel's state, Crawford said.
