This morning I saw a photo of four 5month old whippets for sale in Cumbria on Preloved. I thought they looked rather a sorry sight on what looks like a stone bench in a grey stone building. I don't live nearby to be able to go and see them.
Now, I'm used to a dog living inside and don't have any experience of those living outside nor of rescuing animals. So I thought maybe I'm overreacting to this photo and worrying about nothing and so I rang the RSPCA to ask if it was possible for someone to look at the photo to either reassure me or decide if it need to be looked into.
The RSPCA gentleman appeared to be unwilling to do this for me and suggested trading standards or reporting the advert to preloved. (But would it help the dogs if they just removed the advert?)
I was rather disappointed that they did not agree to look at the photo, something that would take a couple of minutes.
Or was I expecting too much?
