Tuned in to watch one of the 'vet' programmes last night - Bondi Vet - this is usually a mixed bag but last night featured an Aussie vet Scott who spent a couple of days doing health checks on incoming dogs for this charity in Wales.
The number of dogs rescued or relinquished from puppy farms was appalling - does anyone know if the animals are sourced only in the UK or does the charity go to the Continent as well ?
I can only applaud the work they do - the staff are amazing, having to cope with mistreated terrified animals and trying to find new homes for them all.

The cat rescue I got Toby from started when the lady who runs it lost her own cat and discovered how many male strays there were...she'd only been active a few months when Toby came to me almost 3 years ago. After building pens in her garden and having her home full of kittens...inspite of acquiring a band of fosterers...she is now looking for large premises. Several hundred cats and kittens are rescued by her helpers every year. Many are dreadfully ill...and get all help required.
I know we have rescue centres here in Oz - I support my local RSPCA - currently they have some 40 adult dogs in the kennels, a number of these have been returned post Covid - they are all large which I couldn't cope with, but they don't seem to see large numbers of ex puppy farm animals.
I'm sorry in a way this programme was only shown here, I think Scott was appealing to the public in the UK for support
