Backyard breeding

Bella

Bella

When 7 year old Bella’s adopters took her from the breeder, they had no idea that she had a mouth full of rotten teeth, most of which would need removing at a cost they could not afford along with her spay and other immediate costs. Insurance cover was in place but excluded the dental and spay.

Angel, Millie and Dolly

Angel, Millie and Dolly

When Angel, Millie and Dolly left their breeder and arrived in rescue they were in a state of neglect. Their coats were filthy and matted, their mouths were full of rotten teeth and infection. It was clear no care had been given to them while they were making puppies for a lucrative, poorly regulated market.
