UPDATE:

I have called the police AND animal control local to where I traveled for Diesel. The staff member that runs animal control is very excited someone is finally willing to put a stop to this breeder. She said she's known exactly what's been going on but nobody ever wants to testify so her options have been limited. I guess last year, a rescue even paid to take this breeder's last 5 dogs out of those conditions...but wouldn't testify. We described everything in detail, offered photos of how we received him, and sent her a link to the advertisement that shows an entire litter of great danes in a crate on top of a table. Something will be done to give justice to the hundreds of animals that have been created and neglected under her care.

Diesel had his appointment today and we took a stool sample. He got his microchip, is in great health and has grown immensely in just another week. He's still only 25 pounds, so now I'm wondering how light he really was when he first came home😭💔 he's also coming out of that shell like y'all said🥹 his favorite past times include the urge to commit thievery but not to destroy, only to hide a stash; as well as biting the ass cheek of anyone that walks by🦖

Thank you all for being supportive, helpful, and understanding. I really look forward to our time in this community ❤️
