AR-News: (UK) Protest at import of 'battery puppies'

[Animalconcerns]

ANIMAL welfare activists yesterday accused P&O Ferries of breaking the
law by carrying "battery-bred" puppies from Ireland.

In a protest at the ferry operator’s Ayrshire terminal in Troon, dozens
of banner- waving protesters demanded P&O ban the transportation of dogs
from Irish puppy farms.

Thousands of animals, selling for up to £500 each, are imported - or
smuggled - into and through Scotland every year in a trade worth huge
sums of money.
