Funny how the media eventually catch up with what so many of us have been worried about for years - that so many 'rescues' out there are just businesses. Hopefully this will lead to the real rescues standing up.

Pets4homes needs shutting down too - I'm glad the BBC has exposed them in this programme. Don't they see how many 'repeat' adverts they get from the same people over and over again? Why aren't they doing more about it? Shameful.
