Shut Down Middle Earth Pet Shop due to animal mistreatment

The Issue

The Middle Earth Pet Shop in Fort Smith, Arkansas has been mistreating animals for a while. They do not ensure that the animals are well taken care of...the animals are living with poor health conditions and poor environmental conditions. The owners/employees do not love and care for these animals the way they should. 
There have been numerous complaints about Middle Earth in the past without justice! We need this shop shut down to prevent any further mistreatment of these animals. Think of these animals as young, innocent children. They need your help! 
Quote from someone who recently visited: “it’s a pet store here in fort smith. I went shortly after moving back here. The animals were in cages that hadn’t been clean in a very long time. Some had no water. A chinchilla had lost most of its hair and what hair it had was matted because if it’s horrible living conditions and then not giving it it basic needs. There were guinae pigs with scars and scabs from fighting cages were full of poop and urine their poor little feet were swollen and raw. There have been many people that bought dogs here that die within 24 hours of getting it home and the pet store takes no responsibility for it”
