OMG - what on earth happened to those poor things 

Thank goodness they were found and hope they will be safe and cared for now 

[Nicola]

Oh my god, I wonder was this a puppy farm offloading 'unwanted stock'?    I know there are quite a few in that general area 

I will see what can be done.

[Jane S]

I think the dogs do have microchip details showing they are/were owned by a commercial dealer in the Doncaster area, sadly one with a very poor reputation and whose owner has been the subject of Trading Standards investigations in the past (and appeared on BBC Watchdog, according to the Puppy Alert website HERE).

[Jan/Billy]

OMG that is just absolutely terrible 

Poor poor things, thank god they stuck together though 

I notice they are going to the pound, will they be PTS then after 7 days ? 

[Helen]

not if people like nicola have anything to do with it

I am sure moves are going on behind the scenes to secure rescue spaces for these poor dogs, so fingers crossed they will be able to save them all. 

[MrsMac]

I can't stop thinking about them, how scared they must be   

[Gilly]

It's really upsetting isn't it  I just keep thinking about them huddled together and how frightened they must have been. The fact they stayed together tells me that they have probably never been outside before

[Magic Star]

Ohhh my those poor dogs , thats so sad, might be able to help too...  Please contact me if I can foster/adopt  (internet connection is a bit dodgy at the mo though, so bear with me)

Where is Angus?

Kirrie is just up the road from me - if I can help in any way then I would be glad too

Where is Angus? 

My neck of the woods

If anyone thinks they can help it is probably best to email Cath Mason direct as she is a representative for Scottish Cocker Rescue

This has just been posted on C-UK so looks like they are all safe

I've just spoken with Catherine.  She thanks everybody for the calls and emails and says there is nothing anyone can do until the 7 days are up.  The 9 dogs will then be transferred to a local kennel for assessment before finding suitable loving homes for them

[Elisa]

They must be terrified  , but at least they are safe and have the prospect of some loving homes.
