A 23-year-old woman, a 20-year-old woman and a 30-year-old woman were arrested for fraud offences. All the dogs found on the site were examined by a vet at the location. Currently, 26 have been seized due to animal welfare concerns or a suspicion that they may be stolen. They will continue to receive medical treatment, and microchip enquiries are underway to establish ownership. Also found on site were three stolen caravans, two stolen vehicles and a stolen trailer. Enquiries are ongoing to inform the lawful owners.
