Police have seized 22 dogs from a suspected illegal XL Bully breeding farm in Sheffield.
The animals, including mothers and pups, were discovered on Thursday on an allotment, in conditions described by officers as “appalling”.Six of the dogs were put to sleep due to the poor health they were found in while the remaining 16 are being kept in police kennels, according to a South Yorkshire police spokesperson.
“Separate to the investigation around these dogs being XL Bullys, animal cruelty and suffering will not be tolerated within South Yorkshire, and we will continue to work with partners to ensure those responsible are put before the courts.“Sadly, six dogs had to be put to sleep. The remaining 16 dogs remain in police kennels while our investigation continues.
