A former dog sled owner opens up after watching the W5 documentary “Dogs in Distress.” She left her large-scale dog sledding operation shortly after the program aired. XP Mi-Loup has since shut down in Saint-Jean-de-l'Île-d'Orléans, Quebec.

Quebec police would not say what they found in their raid of XP Mi-Loup, but former owner, Tanya Fournier Veilleux says police interviewed people who worked on the property, including herself. No charges have been laid. “I went to see them to tell them that it was true and I was going to quit,” Veilleux explains. “And I told them that I had zero respect, whatsoever. And [Antoine] told me that he didn't care about me not respecting him. And if I go, he doesn't care.”

After trying for a year and a half to make her business work with more than 80 dogs and puppies, Veilleux says she has realized it’s not feasible for them to run a large sled dog kennel and give the animals the proper care they need. She says the company has since shut down and she has left the dog sledding industry.After XP Mi-Loup closed, animal activist Fern Levitt, who secretly went on the grounds and photographed the alleged gas chamber and freezer, stepped in to help.
