[Animal News]This newspaper reported yesterday that a dog owner in Yuen Long kept 15 poodles in cages on a canvas field. “520 Langlang Gas Station” Bella and Catherine Lumsden, founder of Catherines’ Puppies, went to the scene today to follow up. , Catherine and Bella called the police on the spot, but the male dog owner and a woman suddenly arrived at about 4 p.m., and first transported the five dogs away. Catherine found out and stopped each other, and the two sides had a quarrel. Later, the police came to the scene to mediate. We are currently waiting for AFCD staff to arrive at the scene. Bella told this newspaper that she heard that the male dog owner wanted to “break up the two of them,” so she asked the Fisheries and Conservation Department to pick up the remaining 10 poodles.
Catherine told this newspaper that the male dog owner claimed that the poodles were his pets and that he only kept the dogs on the site because of the renovation of his home. However, she said that the dogs were 4 to 5 years old and were not neutered. The men and women were placed in the same cage without separation, and no dog B was seen at the scene. She questioned that the other party was simply breeding dog B and then selling it. She also said that both Catherines’ Puppies and the Dog Rescue Home (HKDR) will help receive these poodles. Even if the dogs are eventually picked up by the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department, the two organizations will actively follow up.
The incident happened when Bella recently received help, claiming that someone in Yuen Long put 15 poodles in a venue built only with canvas and towels. All the dogs were trapped in cages, and even 3 dogs were trapped in the same cage. The man Dog owners rarely come back, and there is only one female worker responsible for taking care of the dogs. Recently, it was suspected that there was a shortage of food. A neighbor told Bella that the worker borrowed dog food from her for emergency needs. The dogs in the venue are all trapped in cages, and there are even three dogs trapped in one cage. Many of the dogs are old and have problems such as cataracts, tangled hair, and odor.
Bella and Catherine arrived at the scene at 3 pm today to follow up, and called the police on the spot. After checking, they found that the dog did not have a microchip. While they were waiting for the police to arrive, the male dog owner and a woman suddenly arrived at 4:45 and took away the five poodles. When they wanted to continue transporting the other dogs, Catherine immediately stopped them, and a quarrel ensued.
The police later arrived at the scene to mediate. Bella told this newspaper that she heard the male dog owner tell the police that his house was still being renovated, and even claimed that he would rather hand the dog to the Fisheries and Conservation Department and the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals than hand it over to volunteers. She said that she was still waiting for the Fisheries and Conservation Department to arrive at the scene to deal with the problem.
Catherine expressed the hope that after arriving at the scene, the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department could investigate whether the dog owner was involved in violating the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Ordinance. This newspaper will continue to follow up on the dog’s situation.
