Three Puppies Sick Days After Being Bought From Wallingford Pet Store

Three dogs purchased within 10 days of each other from the same store immediately showed signs of sickness.

A Meriden couple are calling for justice over their dog Harry, a 4 month Newfoundland pup who died not long after being purchased from All Pets Club in Wallingford from diseases that would need to have been contracted during his time in the store, News 8 reported.

Similar non-lethal cases were presented by families from North Haven and North Carolina who purchased dogs from the Wallingford store. All had similar symptoms of a runny nose, fever and lethargy, according to New 8.

The Meriden couple, Brooke Goff and her partner Angie, have since started a Facebook page called Justice For Harry. The group is planning a peaceful protest outside the store for Friday from 4-8 p.m. and asking for support.

The group plans to hand out blood results from Harry and other dogs purchased from the store since April 1. In addition, the main page has 2,216 members who have all been posting about the store and other items related to dog injustice and abuse.
