This is going on the whole time. As Ms O'Connor said, you will unfortunately see an increase in the next two weeks coming up to Ballinasloe. I attend Ballinasloe every year. You always see the trading of puppies out of the back of vans and in cages. In fairness to the ISPCA, it has always been on hand in Ballinasloe. I have seen them on numerous occasions lifting dogs off so-called people who had them in cages and being unfairly handled and treated. I stand up for the powers that be to say they are on hand. However, there is always that criminality.
