tegk68 Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 'Out of the frying pan and into the fire' Honestly? I'm secretly gald their hideous money making scheme has been blighted and I hope it puts them out of business. I am also sad about the dogs and pups stolen in that I wonder what hands they are going to fall into next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReikiAnge Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 If the reporting is accurate, then ... He added: "In total, the dogs and puppy litters were worth £15,000. I can't believe it." Speaks volumes Though I obviously don't condone dog theft as a rule, I do hope very much the dogs are all safe, being well looked after and have better things to look forward to.

jacqui d Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 One can only hope the dogs were stolen by well meaning people who didnt like the conditions they were kept in and reasons for keeping them, and whilst i dont condone breaking the law in any way shape or form, i have my fingers crossed that they go on to find perfect life long homes where they wont be used as breeding machines to meet the financial greet of their owners.

Houndwoman Posted February 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 I feel the same as you all I just hope that whoever did it did it for the right reasons and they all have a lovely life-a better life than they would have had if they stayed where they were. Poor little souls shouldn't have been born in the first place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tracey.s Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 I hope they all find a better new life than the one they've been taken from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annie Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 "They obviously had time at the farm to steal the dogs, it couldn't have been rushed." Of course they had time, the ever so concerned owners weren't even on the premises. Hopefully all the puppies are safe and well and headed for better lives.

Red Rotties Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Good luck for the future mums and babies may you never see the inside of a barn again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trallwm farm Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 It never ceases to amaze me the gaul with which these people grab the front page of newspapers claiming to be heart broken that thier "pets" have been stolen. But then in an age where "rescues" buy excess puppies to pass on is it any wonder that business that cannot fail to make money out of canine misery get angry when someone releases the pups to a better life where profit isnt the main objective.

celeste Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 You really have to laugh at the farmer, as if he cares what happens to them, all he's bothered about is his profit margin I hope he goes bankrupt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyMalc Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 I hope that this is just the start of the farmer's bad karma and of a better future for the dogs. I can hope, can't I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owl Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 You all seem to be incredibly optimistic about this. The odds that they have been stolen by anti-puppy-farm people are low. I know that dogs are sometimes stolen from bad situations by rescuers, but it isn't that common, is it? Does anyone definitely know of well-intentioned people who are doing this in Wales, i.e. taking batches of pedigree dogs and pups in bulk? The chances that these dogs have been taken by the people who have been stealing pedigree dogs in West Wales to sell for profit are much higher. I hate puppy farms, I'm living in the middle of one of the worst areas for it, but believe me there are places far worse than this one where the theft would not even have been reported because they wouldn't have wanted the authorities poking around. And please note everyone, the people who will take a breeding bitch from a puppy farm to sell on will also take other dogs - including maybe YOUR rescue bitch whose spay scar has faded. So unless someone definitely knows these dogs have been taken by people who aren't pro thieves and do want the best for these pups, let's not be feeling quite so OK about it please. I know the layout of Felingwm Uchaf village fairly well as I did a wildlife project there a few years ago. I can see how this could have been done without too much difficulty and allowing a fair amount of time once they were certain the people were out.

suzeanna Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Assuming the owners of the farm have a breeding licence from the council...unless the rules in Wales are different from England, you are never meant to leave the dogs unattended, so they were breaking the rules and asking for trouble. I agree, sadly, that its unlikely to be wellmeaning people who took the dogs, and I wouldn't be surprised if the day old pups are already dead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
