Three sick puppies dumped at the side of the road in Renfrewshire are suspected to be linked to prolific low-welfare puppy dealers operating in Scotland.
The three male Labradors were found by a concerned member of the public who alerted the Scottish SPCA.
The pups were abandoned close to the junction of Tyree Avenue and Cockles Loan in Renfrew between 3.30pm and 4pm on June 14.
