In this episode of *The Animal Control Report*, hosted by Daniel Ettinger and Ashley Bishop, we dive into a recent lawsuit filed by the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) against the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) over its alleged failure to properly regulate a notorious Iowa puppy mill. The lawsuit targets breeder Steve Kruse, whose facility has been the subject of countless violations of the Animal Welfare Act, yet continues to operate under USDA licensure.

We’ll explore the shocking details of the USDA’s inspection reports, including the appalling conditions at Kruse’s large-scale kennel and the repeated renewal of his license despite well-documented evidence of animal abuse and neglect. Our hosts will also discuss the broader implications of this case for the animal welfare community and the disturbing pattern of federal oversight failures that allow commercial breeders like Kruse to continue profiting at the expense of the animals’ well-being.

Join us for an eye-opening conversation about the ongoing fight to protect animals from cruelty and the accountability gap in the USDA’s enforcement of animal welfare laws.
