Record number of pups seized
dachshunds and French bulldogs is helping fuel the “sickening trade”, which can net unscrupulous farmers tens of thousands of pounds.
Pups suffering from behavioural and health problems are among thousands trafficked in “shocking conditions”, the charity said.
The trust said buyers should ask to see the mother and pup together, and visit the new pup more than once and get paperwork before taking it home.
