A dog breeder has been jailed after police uncovered a secret double life as a drug dealer.
Scott Bennett, 41, was jailed for four years and eight months at the High Court in Glasgow on Tuesday 23 August, after police discovered large quantities of cocaine and cannabis while visiting a property over animal welfare concerns.
Bennett was snared after cops visited his business Platinum Pet Care and K9 Fertility in Strathaven, Lanarkshire, and discovered cocaine with a street value of £23,000 and cannabis worth £49,250 in the dog breeders office. The drug dealing dog breeder used Encrochat phone network to discuss cash he owed to fellow suspected dealers.
