有想要認養狗狗的可以看看喲！
但認養了就不要隨意棄養
他們已經在籠子裡待很久了
需要一個真心愛他的家庭
不要因品種而衝動認養
除了此案例的名犬外
收容所內還有很多等待認養的米克斯/土狗們
也請給他們一個重生的機會 ❤

Taiwan SPCA今日上午於新北市新莊區破獲一處疑似非法繁殖場!!
Taiwan SPCA busts suspected illegal puppy mill! 74 small breed dogs now in need of urgent help! (please see UPDATED English below)

**2013.12.16 (一）下午4:15更新！
60隻狗狗昨日已經全部送養（5隻隔離還未開放認養）。今天最後新店收容所的7隻狗狗也已經全部被領養。感謝大家的愛心。協會這邊目前在比對當天看到的狗與飼主帶去的狗。我們會要求飼主說明狗狗去向。希望民眾給協會與動保處一點時間處理，品種有落差我們已經發現，會持續追蹤。關於領養出狗狗結紮問題：由於此案件狗狗的龐大數量和收容所的空間問題將直接影響收容所內其他狗狗的福利（如，籠子內安置過多犬隻導致擁擠和衝突行為、疾病的交互傳染、影響犬隻性情、空間不足可能導致其他犬隻提前人道等），因此這些狗狗才急迫需要大眾的帶出，繁殖場出來的狗狗因為沒有詳細看過醫生，許多也不適合馬上接受結紮手術。目前動物保護法並無規定飼主或收容所需強制結紮，這也是法律的漏洞，但動保處承諾一定會持續追蹤每隻狗狗的認養情形並建議結紮，當有案件相關新資訊，本協會也會盡快更新。協會也請領養者提供照片及醫療資訊 (請寄送到：investigations@spca.org.tw)！為鼓勵結紮，所有由新北市公立收容所領養的狗狗從明年1月1號後（一整年）都可向新北市動保處申請結紮補助，詳情可詢問動保處。謝謝大家的支持！


**2013.12.15 (日)中午12:38更新!!!
目前33隻狗狗皆在板橋收容所已開放認養(人數較多-以抽籤方式進行認養),其中五隻因為健康因素將延遲開放(牠們會以案件證物當作理由,請不用擔心,不會被安樂).TSPCA調查專員剛剛上午在收容所已確認共有15隻狗狗已被領養出去,剩下的13隻狗狗將在下午2點時提供民眾領養.若有興趣的民眾,可於下午兩點至板橋收容所參觀或先至電詢問板橋收容所.新店收容所的7隻狗狗也將於明日星期一開放領養,請大家在抽時間去幫助牠們.

該案件的所有詳細資訊本協會專員仍在持續追蹤及收集資訊中,若民眾有任何有助於案件調查進行的資訊也請立即提供給我們.請來信investigations@spca.org.tw

TSPCA呼籲,不管是有品種或是米克斯,所有收容所的動物都值得一個愛牠們的人,若您已到收容所也請花時間看看其他許多還在等帶領養的動物,給牠們一個機會!!此案件Taiwan SPCA非常感謝所有收容所的員工及新北市動保處的辛苦協助及民眾的愛心分享!

希望各位如果有心領養，請再三考慮，繁殖場出來的狗狗會需要更多的耐心及關愛陪伴,一定要全家同意，也一定要有經濟能力照顧這些狗狗，牠們也會需要看醫生，醫療費也要考慮清楚在領養哦，牠們已經一輩子都被關在籠子裡面了，希望領養人要好好照顧，不要帶回家之後就不理會狗狗了。不管是品種狗還是米克斯,每隻狗狗都是一條寶貴生命,牠們需要我們的關愛才可以走出陰影，不要帶回家關在籠子裡面就認為這是做愛心,應全面詳細的考量後在去領養。感謝大家。

目前已確認飼主已將剩餘的33隻狗狗送至板橋收容所,所有工作人員正在清點數量及登記狗狗資訊中.剩餘的兩隻狗狗尚未送至收容所,動保處已要求飼主盡快將剩下的兩隻交出,針對此點,我們和動保處一定會追蹤到底!所有狗狗最快"可能"將在明日於板橋收容所開放領養(不會移去別處),但須等明日早上八點的官網為準(一旦開放,我們將立即告知大眾),請民眾等協會公布後再去收容所領養,不需要在外面等!!
而目前在新店收容所等待領養的7隻狗狗必須要等星期一上班日才可領養.請大家不要放棄牠們.

再次呼籲,不管是有品種或是米克斯,所有收容所的動物都值得一個愛牠們的人,若您已到收容所也請花時間看看其他仍在等帶領養的動物,給牠們一個重生的機會!!此案件Taiwan SPCA非常感謝所有收容所的員工及新北市動保處的辛苦協助及民眾的愛心分享,到現場的民眾也請體諒員工的辛苦,不需有負面情緒出現,畢竟,接納一位新家庭成員是值得雙方開心的事.

關於許多民眾關心的結紮問題,所有已被領養出去的狗狗,動保處一定會持續後續追蹤領養者的飼養情況並建議結紮,以免被不法人士再度利用.我們也呼籲所有民眾若去領養狗狗也要有結紮的打算.領養前請三思，要俱備愛心和經濟能力,因為醫療費將會是必要的支出，並承諾不會棄養，不會長期把狗狗關在籠子裡面，狗狗生病會帶去獸醫，會有時間陪伴關愛寵物的飼主才有資格領養。任何最新消息將會持續更新!

Taiwan SPCA busts suspected illegal puppy mill!

**NEWEST UPDATE 12.16 (4:15pm)

60 dogs from the case have been adopted since yesterday (5 still in quarantine). The 7 at xindian shelter have also been adopted today. Thank you everyone for caring about these dogs. Right now we are investigating into why there is a discrepancy between the dogs seen on the day of the bust and the dogs that the owner has brought to the shelter. Regarding why the dogs are not neutered before adoption: Due to the large number of dogs that went into the shelter at one time, the animal protection office decided to open the dogs up for adoption right away. This is because there is a lack of space at the shelters and if the dogs stay too long they are more likely to contract disease, which also means more animals will have to be euthanized due to the lack of space and medical issues. Many of these dogs also need further medical check ups to look for other illnesses that they may have before they are ready for a neutering operation. Current animal protection laws in Taiwan also do not state that ALL dogs must be neutered before adoption. However, the APO has promised to follow up with every dog and we hope people can send us their adoption pictures to investigations@spca.org.tw. To encourage people to neuter their pets, anyone who has adopted from the New Taipei City shelters can apply for reimbursements starting January 1st, 2014. Thank you everyone for your support.


** NEW UPDATE 12.15 ( 12:30pm)

As of today, the 33 dogs taken to Banqiao yesterday are now open for adoption (except for 5 who have some health issues and who will be monitored and cared for until they are able to be adopted, they will not be euthanized). TSPCA investigator was on site this morning and confirms that 15 dogs have already been adopted out, the other 13 will be available for adoption at 2pm. The 7 dogs in Xindian shelter will be open for adoption Monday morning.

TSPCA investigators are continuing to follow this case to ensure that this kind of situation doesn't happen again. If anyone has any pertinent info, please email investigations@spca.org.tw

TSPCA reminds everyone that all animals in shelters need a warm loving home, whether it be pure breeds or mixed breeds, they all deserve a chance. We are very grateful to the the New Taipei Animal Protection Office and all shelter staff for their hard work over these few days, also thank you to the public for your concern.

Reminder that dogs that come out of a situation like this will need extra care, love and patience. They've spent their lives locked in cages for so long, so will need time to adjust. Please remember, if you are wanting to adopt, you must make sure your family all agree to having a dog, that you are able to financially care for the dog (vet visits, medications, food) and have the time and patience to train, love and care for them.

**NEW UPDATE 12.14 (6:30pm)

It's now confirmed that 33 more dogs have been relinquished at the Banqiao shelter. There are still 2 dogs that haven't been dropped off, the Animal Protection Office is requiring the owner to bring them in ASAP and will follow up. These dogs could possibly be open for adoption Sunday, however we must wait until 8am to see if their pictures have been uploaded to the website. We will update everyone as soon as we know when these new dogs are available for adoption, please do not go to the shelter and wait outside, we will update everyone for sure as soon as we know. The 7 dogs at Xindian shelter won't be available for adoption until Monday morning.

Regardless if dogs are pure breeds, mixed dogs or 'Taiwan TuGou', they all deserve loving homes. Once at the shelter, please do take a look at all the other animals waiting for loving homes and consider adopting a mixed breed. The Taiwan SPCA would like to thank the public for deeply caring about this case, the New Taipei Animal Protection Office for helping with this case and all the shelters and shelter staff who have been working around the clock to received and register this huge influx of dogs. TSPCA reminds everyone that government shelters are also very low on staff and especially on a weekend don't have the man power to process all these dogs quickly. Everyone is doing the best they can, so let's all stay positive and be patient with everyone working on this case.

Regarding public concerns about these dogs being adopted out without being de-sexed, the Animal Protection Office will be following up with each adopter to encourage the procedure. Because the the sheer number of dogs dumped at the shelter within 24 hours, being under staffed and not having space, they were unable to do so for these dogs ( in regular circumstances all dogs are de-sexed before going out). We also remind the public to think carefully before adopting an animal, as there will always be medical fees and food costs that need to be spent as well as time needed to train your dog and exercise and properly care for them. An animal a life long commitment, and if you are not able to provide the above care, then a pet is not for you.
Any new info that comes in, we will update above.

**NEW UPDATE 12.14 (SAT 2PM) -
Just heard from the staff at New Taipei Animal Protection Office, all of the dogs from the case that were at Banqiao shelter have been adopted（20 including 4 from yesterday），the 6 sent to Zhonghe Shelter have all been adopted，the 6 at Xingzhuang and 7 at Xindian will be up for adoption Monday when the shelters open。The 35 left that the owner has promised to bring to the shelter may or may not arrive today. We will let everyone know when he delivers them. Even if they are delivered to the shelter today, the 35 dogs will only be up for adoption TOMORROW. Please do not wait outside of the Banqiao shelter for these dogs, if you can, please consider adopting other dogs already at the shelter, especially mixed dogs and tugous. Thank you.

____________________________________

The Taiwan SPCA was on a regular investigation call in Xinzhuang this morning (12/13) when it was discovered that the owner has 74 dogs in dirty cages on his property. Although we suspect an illegal breeding operation of some sort, there were no puppies on site and no other proof to confirm so.

With the help of the New Taipei City Animal Protection Office and local police we were able to enter the site.

Once on the scene, we were disgusted at the conditions these dogs were living in. Dark, filthy spaces, a horrible stench filled the air, the dogs fur was matted and unkept, their nails hardly ever trimmed, they were all kept in wire cages and they were obviously never given any love or compassion.

The dogs' owner claims he wasn't breeding them for sale and that he didn't have a ability to care for them, thus plans to relinquish them all to the BanQiao shelter. ( New Taipei APO is currently commencing legal proceedings)

As of now (12/13 at 4pm) 39 dogs have already been taken to the Banqiao shelter, with the remaining 35 to be taken within the next day. If, after 12 days, these dogs haven't been adopted, there is a possibility they will be euthanized.

The Taiwan SPCA does not currently operate a shelter, thus the number of dogs we can take in is limited. We are calling on the public for help in adopting or fostering these poor dogs. They are currently already open for adoption and can been seen at this link:

ZhongHe/ Xindian：
https://www.facebook.com/gogohappylife
XinZhuang：
http://www.ahiqo.ntpc.gov.tw/web/Home…

In total there are 74 small and medium sized purebred dogs. 11 poodles (white/black/red), 17 French Bulldogs (Tan/black and white/mixes), 4 Maltese, 6 Chihuahua (long/short hair), 4 King Charles Spaniel, 7 Dachshund (brown/tan, long/short hair), 15 Pomeranian (tan/white), 3 Pug (black /white), 2 Yorkshire Terrier and 5 corgis.

If you able to help by being a foster for TSPCA or even adopt, please call the SPCA office for info: 02 -2367-0317 or email investigations@spca.org.tw.

You can also call the Banqiao shelter at 02-89662158 for info. Address: #1-9 HuaDong Road, Banqiao District, New Taipei City. Hours of operation: Monday-Saturday 8am-5pm

＊＊希望各位如果有心領養，請再三考慮，繁殖場出來的狗狗會需要更多的耐心及關愛陪伴,一定要全家同意，也一定要有經濟能力照顧這些狗狗，牠們也會需要看醫生，醫療費也要考慮清楚在領養哦，牠們已經一輩子都被關在籠子裡面了，希望領養人要好好照顧，不要帶回家之後就不理會狗狗了。不管是品種狗還是米克斯,每隻狗狗都是一條寶貴生命,牠們需要我們的關愛才可以走出陰影，不要帶回家關在籠子裡面就認為這是做愛心,應全面詳細的考量後在去領養。感謝大家。

——————————————————

現場環境髒亂惡臭,狗狗長期關籠,毛髮打結,指甲過長,飼主無提供任何陪伴關愛及照顧.TSPCA在新北市動保處及警方的協助下,飼主仍否認自己是繁殖業者並表示自己無法照顧這些狗狗所以將於今日全數轉交板橋收容所(目前動保處已經展開後續的法律程序.)

剛得知消息,飼主已將其中39隻棄養至板橋收容所,剩下35隻也會明天下午全數送去（這35隻就不會被安排到其他收容所，民眾明天可以直接到板橋領養）

12天內若未被領養可能將接受安樂死命運的牠們,現在急需大家的幫助!!

TSPCA目前無收容所,因此能帶出的狗狗隻數有限,若有愛心民眾或其他團體願意幫助請"立即"至板橋收容所，中和收容所，新店收容所，新莊收容所直接認養).民眾也可上網查詢(只要是今日(2013.12.13)所棄養的品種狗,都是此案件的狗狗)

Taiwan SPCA busts suspected illegal puppy mill!

**NEWEST UPDATE 12.16 (4:15pm)

60 dogs from the case have been adopted since yesterday (5 still in quarantine). The 7 at xindian shelter have also been adopted today. Thank you everyone for caring about these dogs. Right now we are investigating into why there is a discrepancy between the dogs seen on the day of the bust and the dogs that the owner has brought to the shelter. Regarding why the dogs are not neutered before adoption: Due to the large number of dogs that went into the shelter at one time, the animal protection office decided to open the dogs up for adoption right away. This is because there is a lack of space at the shelters and if the dogs stay too long they are more likely to contract disease, which also means more animals will have to be euthanized due to the lack of space and medical issues. Many of these dogs also need further medical check ups to look for other illnesses that they may have before they are ready for a neutering operation. Current animal protection laws in Taiwan also do not state that ALL dogs must be neutered before adoption. However, the APO has promised to follow up with every dog and we hope people can send us their adoption pictures to investigations@spca.org.tw. To encourage people to neuter their pets, anyone who has adopted from the New Taipei City shelters can apply for reimbursements starting January 1st, 2014. Thank you everyone for your support.


** NEW UPDATE 12.15 ( 12:30pm)

As of today, the 33 dogs taken to Banqiao yesterday are now open for adoption (except for 5 who have some health issues and who will be monitored and cared for until they are able to be adopted, they will not be euthanized). TSPCA investigator was on site this morning and confirms that 15 dogs have already been adopted out, the other 13 will be available for adoption at 2pm. The 7 dogs in Xindian shelter will be open for adoption Monday morning.

TSPCA investigators are continuing to follow this case to ensure that this kind of situation doesn't happen again. If anyone has any pertinent info, please email investigations@spca.org.tw

TSPCA reminds everyone that all animals in shelters need a warm loving home, whether it be pure breeds or mixed breeds, they all deserve a chance. We are very grateful to the the New Taipei Animal Protection Office and all shelter staff for their hard work over these few days, also thank you to the public for your concern.

Reminder that dogs that come out of a situation like this will need extra care, love and patience. They've spent their lives locked in cages for so long, so will need time to adjust. Please remember, if you are wanting to adopt, you must make sure your family all agree to having a dog, that you are able to financially care for the dog (vet visits, medications, food) and have the time and patience to train, love and care for them.

**NEW UPDATE 12.14 (6:30pm)

It's now confirmed that 33 more dogs have been relinquished at the Banqiao shelter. There are still 2 dogs that haven't been dropped off, the Animal Protection Office is requiring the owner to bring them in ASAP and will follow up. These dogs could possibly be open for adoption Sunday, however we must wait until 8am to see if their pictures have been uploaded to the website. We will update everyone as soon as we know when these new dogs are available for adoption, please do not go to the shelter and wait outside, we will update everyone for sure as soon as we know. The 7 dogs at Xindian shelter won't be available for adoption until Monday morning.

Regardless if dogs are pure breeds, mixed dogs or 'Taiwan TuGou', they all deserve loving homes. Once at the shelter, please do take a look at all the other animals waiting for loving homes and consider adopting a mixed breed. The Taiwan SPCA would like to thank the public for deeply caring about this case, the New Taipei Animal Protection Office for helping with this case and all the shelters and shelter staff who have been working around the clock to received and register this huge influx of dogs. TSPCA reminds everyone that government shelters are also very low on staff and especially on a weekend don't have the man power to process all these dogs quickly. Everyone is doing the best they can, so let's all stay positive and be patient with everyone working on this case.

Regarding public concerns about these dogs being adopted out without being de-sexed, the Animal Protection Office will be following up with each adopter to encourage the procedure. Because the the sheer number of dogs dumped at the shelter within 24 hours, being under staffed and not having space, they were unable to do so for these dogs ( in regular circumstances all dogs are de-sexed before going out). We also remind the public to think carefully before adopting an animal, as there will always be medical fees and food costs that need to be spent as well as time needed to train your dog and exercise and properly care for them. An animal a life long commitment, and if you are not able to provide the above care, then a pet is not for you.
Any new info that comes in, we will update above.

**NEW UPDATE 12.14 (SAT 2PM) -
Just heard from the staff at New Taipei Animal Protection Office, all of the dogs from the case that were at Banqiao shelter have been adopted（20 including 4 from yesterday），the 6 sent to Zhonghe Shelter have all been adopted，the 6 at Xingzhuang and 7 at Xindian will be up for adoption Monday when the shelters open。The 35 left that the owner has promised to bring to the shelter may or may not arrive today. We will let everyone know when he delivers them. Even if they are delivered to the shelter today, the 35 dogs will only be up for adoption TOMORROW. Please do not wait outside of the Banqiao shelter for these dogs, if you can, please consider adopting other dogs already at the shelter, especially mixed dogs and tugous. Thank you.

____________________________________

The Taiwan SPCA was on a regular investigation call in Xinzhuang this morning (12/13) when it was discovered that the owner has 74 dogs in dirty cages on his property. Although we suspect an illegal breeding operation of some sort, there were no puppies on site and no other proof to confirm so.

With the help of the New Taipei City Animal Protection Office and local police we were able to enter the site.

Once on the scene, we were disgusted at the conditions these dogs were living in. Dark, filthy spaces, a horrible stench filled the air, the dogs fur was matted and unkept, their nails hardly ever trimmed, they were all kept in wire cages and they were obviously never given any love or compassion.

The dogs' owner claims he wasn't breeding them for sale and that he didn't have a ability to care for them, thus plans to relinquish them all to the BanQiao shelter. ( New Taipei APO is currently commencing legal proceedings)

As of now (12/13 at 4pm) 39 dogs have already been taken to the Banqiao shelter, with the remaining 35 to be taken within the next day. If, after 12 days, these dogs haven't been adopted, there is a possibility they will be euthanized.

The Taiwan SPCA does not currently operate a shelter, thus the number of dogs we can take in is limited. We are calling on the public for help in adopting or fostering these poor dogs. They are currently already open for adoption and can been seen at this link:

ZhongHe/ Xindian：

XinZhuang：

In total there are 74 small and medium sized purebred dogs. 11 poodles (white/black/red), 17 French Bulldogs (Tan/black and white/mixes), 4 Maltese, 6 Chihuahua (long/short hair), 4 King Charles Spaniel, 7 Dachshund (brown/tan, long/short hair), 15 Pomeranian (tan/white), 3 Pug (black /white), 2 Yorkshire Terrier and 5 corgis.

If you able to help by being a foster for TSPCA or even adopt, please call the SPCA office for info: 02 -2367-0317 or email investigations@spca.org.tw.

You can also call the Banqiao shelter at 02-89662158 for info. Address: #1-9 HuaDong Road, Banqiao District, New Taipei City. Hours of operation: Monday-Saturday 8am-5pm

他們完全不顧這些小生命的生活和想法
只是把牠們關在狹小的籠子裡不斷繁殖

不要再買夜市路邊或著寵物店櫥窗外的小狗了
他們大多第一次睜開眼睛就是像在這種地方啊。

以領養代替購買
這裡有很多準備開始新生活的小朋友在等著你們。

Taiwan SPCA今日上午於新北市新莊區破獲一處疑似非法繁殖場!!
Taiwan SPCA busts suspected illegal puppy mill! 74 small breed dogs now in need of urgent help! (please see UPDATED English below)

**2013.12.16 (一）下午4:15更新！
60隻狗狗昨日已經全部送養（5隻隔離還未開放認養）。今天最後新店收容所的7隻狗狗也已經全部被領養。感謝大家的愛心。協會這邊目前在比對當天看到的狗與飼主帶去的狗。我們會要求飼主說明狗狗去向。希望民眾給協會與動保處一點時間處理，品種有落差我們已經發現，會持續追蹤。關於領養出狗狗結紮問題：由於此案件狗狗的龐大數量和收容所的空間問題將直接影響收容所內其他狗狗的福利（如，籠子內安置過多犬隻導致擁擠和衝突行為、疾病的交互傳染、影響犬隻性情、空間不足可能導致其他犬隻提前人道等），因此這些狗狗才急迫需要大眾的帶出，繁殖場出來的狗狗因為沒有詳細看過醫生，許多也不適合馬上接受結紮手術。目前動物保護法並無規定飼主或收容所需強制結紮，這也是法律的漏洞，但動保處承諾一定會持續追蹤每隻狗狗的認養情形並建議結紮，當有案件相關新資訊，本協會也會盡快更新。協會也請領養者提供照片及醫療資訊 (請寄送到：investigations@spca.org.tw)！為鼓勵結紮，所有由新北市公立收容所領養的狗狗從明年1月1號後（一整年）都可向新北市動保處申請結紮補助，詳情可詢問動保處。謝謝大家的支持！


**2013.12.15 (日)中午12:38更新!!!
目前33隻狗狗皆在板橋收容所已開放認養(人數較多-以抽籤方式進行認養),其中五隻因為健康因素將延遲開放(牠們會以案件證物當作理由,請不用擔心,不會被安樂).TSPCA調查專員剛剛上午在收容所已確認共有15隻狗狗已被領養出去,剩下的13隻狗狗將在下午2點時提供民眾領養.若有興趣的民眾,可於下午兩點至板橋收容所參觀或先至電詢問板橋收容所.新店收容所的7隻狗狗也將於明日星期一開放領養,請大家在抽時間去幫助牠們.

該案件的所有詳細資訊本協會專員仍在持續追蹤及收集資訊中,若民眾有任何有助於案件調查進行的資訊也請立即提供給我們.請來信investigations@spca.org.tw

TSPCA呼籲,不管是有品種或是米克斯,所有收容所的動物都值得一個愛牠們的人,若您已到收容所也請花時間看看其他許多還在等帶領養的動物,給牠們一個機會!!此案件Taiwan SPCA非常感謝所有收容所的員工及新北市動保處的辛苦協助及民眾的愛心分享!

希望各位如果有心領養，請再三考慮，繁殖場出來的狗狗會需要更多的耐心及關愛陪伴,一定要全家同意，也一定要有經濟能力照顧這些狗狗，牠們也會需要看醫生，醫療費也要考慮清楚在領養哦，牠們已經一輩子都被關在籠子裡面了，希望領養人要好好照顧，不要帶回家之後就不理會狗狗了。不管是品種狗還是米克斯,每隻狗狗都是一條寶貴生命,牠們需要我們的關愛才可以走出陰影，不要帶回家關在籠子裡面就認為這是做愛心,應全面詳細的考量後在去領養。感謝大家。


______________________

**2013.12.14 18:30更新!!!
目前已確認飼主已將剩餘的33隻狗狗送至板橋收容所,所有工作人員正在清點數量及登記狗狗資訊中.剩餘的兩隻狗狗尚未送至收容所,動保處已要求飼主盡快將剩下的兩隻交出,針對此點,我們和動保處一定會追蹤到底!所有狗狗最快"可能"將在明日於板橋收容所開放領養(不會移去別處),但須等明日早上八點的官網為準(一旦開放,我們將立即告知大眾),請民眾等協會公布後再去收容所領養,不需要在外面等!!
而目前在新店收容所等待領養的7隻狗狗必須要等星期一上班日才可領養.請大家不要放棄牠們.

再次呼籲,不管是有品種或是米克斯,所有收容所的動物都值得一個愛牠們的人,若您已到收容所也請花時間看看其他仍在等帶領養的動物,給牠們一個重生的機會!!此案件Taiwan SPCA非常感謝所有收容所的員工及新北市動保處的辛苦協助及民眾的愛心分享,到現場的民眾也請體諒員工的辛苦,不需有負面情緒出現,畢竟,接納一位新家庭成員是值得雙方開心的事.

關於許多民眾關心的結紮問題,所有已被領養出去的狗狗,動保處一定會持續後續追蹤領養者的飼養情況並建議結紮,以免被不法人士再度利用.我們也呼籲所有民眾若去領養狗狗也要有結紮的打算.領養前請三思，要俱備愛心和經濟能力,因為醫療費將會是必要的支出，並承諾不會棄養，不會長期把狗狗關在籠子裡面，狗狗生病會帶去獸醫，會有時間陪伴關愛寵物的飼主才有資格領養。任何最新消息將會持續更新!

__________________________


＊＊2013.12.14 4:25pm更新！！！
我們已從新北市動物保護處組長確認，板橋收容所的案件狗狗已經全數被領養（共20隻，包含昨天被領養的4隻），中和收容所的6隻狗狗也全部被領養，新莊的狗狗今天已被轉送至板橋收容所而且也全數被領養（6隻）,目前只剩新店收容所的狗狗（7隻）要禮拜一至五才有開放領養。所有狗狗的後續資料,我們一定會持續追蹤.

"飼主剩下的35隻狗狗今日並未送去板橋收容所!!"動保處與我們仍在試圖確認飼主將送去收容所的日期時間.

當飼主把狗狗送去板橋收容所時,我們一定會在通知大家, 請大家不用在收容所外面等，當狗狗送去收容所時,收容所人員需要詳細記錄每隻狗狗的記錄和清點數量,因此,剩下的狗狗們不一定會現場立即開放，開放的時候我們一定會通知大家!!請大家今天不要一直等，或如果真心要領養的民眾請領養收容所其他可愛的狗狗，感謝！!所有的狗都是可愛的，希望大家多給米克斯機會，牠們也是可愛的寶貝們！領養前請三思，要俱備愛心，經濟能力ok因為養寵物不便宜，不會棄養，不會長期把狗狗關在籠子裡面，狗狗生病會帶去獸醫，會有時間陪伴寵物的飼主才有資格領養。有任何最新消息我們都會立即更新!感謝

The Taiwan SPCA was on a regular investigation call in Xinzhuang this morning (12/13) when it was discovered that the owner has 74 dogs in dirty cages on his property. Although we suspect an illegal breeding operation of some sort, there were no puppies on site and no other proof to confirm so.

With the help of the New Taipei City Animal Protection Office and local police we were able to enter the site.

Once on the scene, we were disgusted at the conditions these dogs were living in. Dark, filthy spaces, a horrible stench filled the air, the dogs fur was matted and unkept, their nails hardly ever trimmed, they were all kept in wire cages and they were obviously never given any love or compassion.

The dogs' owner claims he wasn't breeding them for sale and that he didn't have a ability to care for them, thus plans to relinquish them all to the BanQiao shelter. ( New Taipei APO is currently commencing legal proceedings)

As of now (12/13 at 4pm) 39 dogs have already been taken to the Banqiao shelter, with the remaining 35 to be taken within the next day. If, after 12 days, these dogs haven't been adopted, there is a possibility they will be euthanized.

The Taiwan SPCA does not currently operate a shelter, thus the number of dogs we can take in is limited. We are calling on the public for help in adopting or fostering these poor dogs. They are currently already open for adoption and can been seen at this link:
