Input: So I [M19] am in the US and right in the South. I live with my family who have been here for over 30 years, and we're deep in the woods with the closest main road being over 2 miles away. One of the only 3 neighbors we have anywhere in our vicinity owns a very *large* amount of dogs. That's not inherently bad or anything provided you can care for them, but they are treated terribly. Flea infested, starved, and all of them are chained up outside to trees, basketball hoops, and anything else you can loop a chain around. The area isn't cleaned and the dogs are never taken to the vet or ever played with. When we had hurricane warnings, or our dam broke and there was major flooding possible going to happen in our area they always left them tied up, even with days to try to move them to a safer place. I remember one of their dogs getting hit by a car because he was the only 2 they ever had off leash and he had a huge gash on his leg. He was never taken to the vet and I tried to clean it and wrap it up with gauze but the next day I guess he tore it off. He does about a month later for "unknown reasons". This dog was still a puppy, under a year old. He was leashed up after he killed one of my dogs before he died, even though we asked them to tie him up because he was very aggressive to our dogs. They swore he wasnt, and barely apologized after their dog murdered ours. She even made sick jokes that they would "bash the weak pups" because she saw me saying that I was vegan as a personal attack or something.

Their other dog they keep off a chain is a girl, they ALWAYS had her pregnant. The only way they tried to 'prevent' this was to put every female dog they had who went into heat into this tiny cage that was full of feces and other fluids. Then anytime they came pregnant they would put the mother and pups into one of those outdoor dog fences in kennels, they never cleaned these and the pups were full of worms from never going to the vet. She also found a female dog off the road and told my mom that she wanted to keep her around for puppies and replace one of her females with her. 

This seems like a perfect reason for calling APS, but my family gets outraged when I bring it up. They tell me that they've known the family for like 30yrs and "yes it's bad, but they help us out!" Or that "you're just going to cause drama, this is a small town, nothing is going to happen to them." Our neighbors just see me as an angry vegan kid that showed up and are starting to start a fuss. I dont really care what they do, I dont like them eating animals but I keep my mouth shut because it's not my place. However this isn't a vegan issue this is just straight up animal abuse!

I really want to do this and try to at least help the dogs somewhat, but my family thinks I'm an ass for even trying to say their friend is abusing animals.

WIBTA?
