Little Falls Dog Facility Falls Quiet

(AP) A 500 dog breeding operation near Little Falls has apparently shut down. The U.S. Department of Agriculture says Bary McDuffee canceled his license March 16th.

A nieghbor who complained about the operation says she no longer hears dogs on the property, and a county official says the facility is no longer being used as a kennel.

McDuffee opened the kennel in 2007, which prompted protests and a lawsuit.
