These are some of the sick and neglected animals from Pet Rescue.
For some inexplicable reason, the Illinois Department of Agriculture doesn't see anything wrong with this.
The Rottweiler who lived in this cage had to be euthanized.
He had open sores on his body from being forced to lay in his own waste for days on end.
Pet Rescue Financials
Litter boxes at the "sanctuary".
May 2008: 2-3 volunteers per night are given 45 minutes to walk 40-50 dogs and care for 160 cats. Whether dogs have been walked, cats’ litter boxes cleaned, and fresh water & food supplied to all is irrelevant. At 9 PM, volunteers are forced to leave for the day. This leaves many animals to go hungry every night, dogs not to be let out of their cages, and for litter boxes and dog crates to accumulate waste day after day, in stark contrast to “the sanctuary” that Armon advertises Pet Rescue to be.
Dead mouse
6/4/08: A dead mouse is found next to food and utensils. Common occurrence due to unsanitary conditions that have been repeatedly reported to the Illinois Department of Agriculture since 1980.
Venus - chronic diarrhea
May 2008: Venus has had chronic upper respiratory infections and diarrhea for at least one year, yet continues to be denied veterinary care. Note diarrhea encrusted tail.
Sick cat denied veterinary care
May 2008: Sick since September 2007, Zeus has never been treated by a veterinarian.
Sick birds in the bathroom
These birds live in a filthy, mouse-infested bathroom. Notice the missing feathers.
Nelson
Nelson is featured prominently in Pet Rescue's fundraising efforts.
How Nelson is treated
This is how Nelson lives his life, in a filthy cage on the Hebron property where Armon and Horak reside.

I am a former volunteer and I was one of the protesters of 1992. =( I can't believe this crazy woman has been able to keep this hell hole open this long. HOPEFULLY this place will be shut down so those poor animals won't have to suffer any more. You have my support.
I can't believe the VILLAGE OF BLOOMINGDALE has allowed this abuse and misuse of funds to continue for 30 YEARS!
The State of Illinois inspector-COLLEEN O'KEEFE needs to make UNANNOUNCED VISITS to this hellhole. Not enough inspectors to do the job? I know many people who would be more than happy to inspect some of these `shelters' as volunteers.
I will not give 1 penny to anything connected to the VILLAGE OF BLOOMINGDALE.
I certainly hope that the charges against the Carol Stream woman who rescued the papillion will be dropped. Talk about where's the justice?
Seems like someone's palm is getting greased.
I volunteered at this shelter in the late 80s and saw so many red flags then. I would be happy to join any organized effort to close this place. Dale Armon clearly has no place in running an animal care facility. The people and village of Bloomingdale have blood on their hands as long as they continue to overlook the animals that suffer at Pet Rescue.
