Ontario Superior Court/Small Claims, says Lorie Dixon defamed Paws-R-Us by calling it a puppymill *LINK*

Last year, Paws R Us, a self described "commercial dog kennel" operating out of Shawville Quebec was in an Ontario court suing one of their customers, Lorie Dixon, for defamation because she had gone online and written several postings claiming they were a puppy mill.

Let's do a quick review. According to testimony presented at the trial in Ottawa:

Paws R Us produces over a thousand pups a year.

Paws R Us kennels hundreds of for sale dogs at a time.

Paws R Us sells puppies from over 20 different breeds.

Paws R Us has a staff of only 7 to 11 adults.

Paws R Us has had complaints about them sent to the mayor of the municipality where Paws R Us is located that they sell sick dogs.
