Nearly 90 Animals Rescued from Puppy Mill in Estrie Region of Quebec
Humane Society International/Canada assisted MAPAQ in rescue
(firmenpresse) - MONTREAL, QUEBEC -- (Marketwired) -- 06/16/15 -- Nearly 90 animals from a large commercial breeder in the Estrie region of Quebec are now safe thanks to the Quebec Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (MAPAQ) and Humane Society International. The rescued animals include a variety of small breeds, including yorkies and bichons.
Ewa Demianowicz, campaign manager for HSI/Canada, said: "It never gets easier seeing animals treated like this. We can only hope that stronger animal protection laws being introduced in Quebec will give us the tools to make puppy mills history in this province."
Once removed from the premises, rescuers transported the animals to an emergency shelter where they received veterinary treatment and care from staff and volunteers. The owner may face charges under provincial animal welfare laws.Humane Society International/Canada is always in need of volunteers to assist in caring for rescued animals.
