The animals were safely retrieved from the site and transferred to council premises.
Investigation to secure dogs’ health and welfare underway

More than 50 dogs have been removed from a property in Pembrokeshire following concerns their welfare “had potentially been compromised”.

Staff from Pembrokeshire County Council, Dyfed Powys Police and Dogs Trust attended the operation at the premises near Pembroke Dock on Tuesday (29 Jan).

Dogs Trust said the animals were safely retrieved from the site and transferred to council premises in their specially equipped animal ambulance.

“The health and welfare of the dogs is our priority and we will do all we can to assist Pembrokeshire County Council,” it said. “As the investigation is ongoing we can’t go into any further detail at this time.”

New form for online veterinary medicines retailers

The Veterinary Medicines Directorate (VMD) has produced a new online form for retailers wishing to sell veterinary medicines on the internet.

The form replace the previous Word version and is part of the VMD's ongoing commitment to digitise its processes. Anyone retailing prescription medicines online, including POM-V, POM-VPS and NFA-VPS categories, is lawfully required to register with the VMD before trading.

The change only applies to new applicants. Retailers already listed on the VMD's Register of Online Retailers or registered under the Accredited Internet Retailer Scheme (AIRS) do not need to do anything.
