NJ - Reporting pet shop problems

NJ has about 55 pet stores that sell puppies. If you witness unsanitary
conditions, over-crowding, sick puppies (coughing, eye & nose discharge,
diarrhea, etc), here's what eyewitnesses can do:

Contact the health departments that have jurisdiction over the stores. A
directory of county and local offices can be found here:

If you have no luck there, contact the NJ Office of Animal Welfare and they
will refer to a health officer:

For all neglect issues, cruelty, lack of sustenance, sick animals, call the
NJ SPCA: 1-800-582-5979.
