'Sensory gardens' for illegally-bred puppies
The puppy trade in Scotland is estimated to be worth around 拢13m a year, but a large proportion of them are thought to be illegally bred. Many of these in so-called puppy farms - where multiple dogs are continually bred and kept in poor conditions. Animals bred in that environment also struggle to adapt socially.
