Ten puppies were rescued by the Scottish SPCA on June 27—intercepted from the illegal puppy trade. Earlier last month, 20 were rescued.
The puppies were being smuggled into Scotland to be sold on for a huge profit—they were picked up at the Cairnryan Ferry Port in Scotland.
The breeds were found crammed together and in horrible condition.
They included shih tzus, bichon frises, Cavalier King Charles spaniels, cocker spaniels, pugs, cavachons, and cockapoos. Each of the puppies can be sold for 800 pounds, which is a little over $1,000.
