Those poor pups, it's really sad they were handed back to that lady to sell, I can't imagine the place they came from was cleaner. She clearly doesn't care about their health taking such young & unvaccinated pups into environment where has no idea what viruses previous dogs/people may have carried in.

I feel so sorry for the house owner having to clean that up and even if had allowed multiple dogs you'd not expect someone to bring a couple of litters and pretend they live there to sell them but it does seem to happen frequently. I can imagine angry buyers turning up disturbing other renters wanting to complain about their sick puppies.

Not great for us dog owners looking for a holiday let either in future as you wouldn't blame them for switching to 'no dogs' although I doubt these puppy farm sellers pay much attention to the rules.

I was amazed she was allowed to keep the pups! I wish breeding dogs was regulated somehow.

Can't believe she got them back to sell . Why were there empty food cans in the bed !?

Wtf ? Why did she rent somewhere to sell them ? What is her house like if she had to
Do this ?

Awful. I can't believe police said no offence- surely criminal damage ? She wrecked the holiday home !

Puppy farmers & backyard breeders are literal pond life, although Airb'n'b hosts aren't a great deal better.

It's extremely common practice for puppy farmers to use a nice house to which they invite unsuspecting buyers - it's to create the facade that the pups are home-bred, rather than in the appalling puppy farm conditions. I would imagine that prospective buyers wouldn't be allowed inside (some excuse would be used) in this case.

That the pups were returned, despite all this AND how young they were, beggars belief.
