On Monday afternoon (April 25, 4:30 p.m.), plainclothes police rescued seven puppies from illegal trade on Wanheimer Strasse. The little four-legged friends are said to have been just six days old when they were advertised by a woman (40) from Duisburg via the online sales platform “eBay Kleinanzeigen”.
An attentive citizen (51) noticed the strange offer and feigned interest to the saleswoman. They made an appointment to purchase four puppies. Cost: a total of 750 euros. The 51-year-old then alerted the police. Two women and two men (22-44 years old) greeted the plainclothes officers at the front door; In her hands: a cardboard box with four Pinscher puppies. They all still had their eyes closed and were feverishly loud.
The emergency services found three more puppies and three adolescent dogs in the apartment. They were hidden in a small built-in cupboard - without food or water. The officers took all ten dogs and took them to an animal shelter in North Rhine-Westphalia. The accused now have to face proceedings for violating the Animal Welfare Act.
