WASHINGTON — Christina Fay, who is appealing 17 animal cruelty convictions in New Hampshire’s State Supreme Court, is now suing The Humane Society of the United States and the town of Wolfeboro for more than $35 million in federal court.
Fay, 62, was convicted in March of 2018 for neglecting about 75 Great Danes that she kept on the property of her $1.5 million Wolfeboro mansion. Most of the charges involved failing to provide care to specific dogs which suffered from various ailments like papiloma infections. Police, assisted by HSUS, raided her property in 2017. Another nine dogs were taken from a veterinarian’s office.
This poor woman was dragged through the media mud by the HSUS. They made millions and millions through donations while her dogs died tortuous deaths through the incompetent care of the HSUS volunteers. Meanwhile her home was looted and stripped bare. They even took the toilets.. I hope she wins big
Fay deserves to have her side heard, and due process isn't something that should be ignored, ever! From what I've read, due process failed to be followed in this case. I am against dog abuse, 100% no question. But from what I've seen, none of these dogs suffered abuse, and the HSUS had a blast, and made a lot of money portraying this troubled, single woman as Cruella D-ville. 75 great danes abused in a mansion is great media fodder!
The dogs lived in conditions that the word "filth" does not adequately describe. They walked on floors caked in their own feces and urine. The entire house smelled like a sewer. Many of the dogs needed veterinary attention. This isn't a witch hunt against a "troubled, single woman." You can google the name Christina Fay and immediately see the photos of the conditions these dogs were kept in. You refer to yourself against dog abuse? You should be ashamed of yourself. I pray for any dog that you have in your care if that's your standard of good pet ownership.
I'm speechless. This is a reason why wealthy people get away with so much : fear of litigation. The Humane Society will now have to pay lawyers to get this worthless lawsuit (hopefully ) thrown out. This means that their resources will be depleted and their will be less available funds to go to the care of the animals.
This is not a local Humane society that helps animals. HSUS is the Humane Society of the United States. It is a lobbying organization with a tricky, misleading name that works to end the ownership of animals, pets and livestock farming. They give next to no money to the care of animals. I'm glad this lady is suing them.

Hey, Daymond - how about you refer to her as "animal abuser" rather than "dog owner," given that she was convicted of animal cruelty?
