Almost 100 traumatised dogs have been rescued from a horrific puppy farm in Torquay, Devon. The Shih Tzu type dogs, thought to be between the ages of a week and 12 years, were discovered by the RSPCA with flea and worm infestations in their dirty, matted fur.
All 96 dogs were living in a "terrible condition" surrounded by their own urine and faeces - but have now thankfully been taken in by numerous animal rescue centres across Devon and Cornwall. One shelter is fighting to save the life of a young puppy and the mother, who has been weakened by having to nurse "litter after litter".
