Puppy trafficking in Europe, a 'well-organised mafia' • FRANCE 24 English

FRANCE24, 16 Jul 2021

But professional breeders could not keep up with demand and unscrupulous people stepped in. Breeders who flout the law have cropped up all over the internet, offering puppies for immediate delivery. Every year, tens of thousands of puppies are imported #illegally from Poland and Hungary, often to Germany. It's a murky #business that generates both profits and animal suffering. Our correspondents report.
