An animal rescue centre is seeking 'understanding' homes after 45 dogs were signed over to them in just one day.
Hope Rescue, in Pontyclun, Wales, received a call from a local authority and the Regional Trading Standards Investigation Team asking for urgent help removing a large number of puppies and dogs from an illegal breeder.
Horrified by how the dogs were being housed, Sara Rosser, head of welfare at Hope Rescue, said the condition of the dogs were some of the worst she had ever seen.
