Behind the story of this little ball of fur unfortunately hides the problem of animal trafficking. Animal Protection Action is convinced of this: “ A 4-week-old puppy, not weaned, without its mother or brothers and sisters, locked in a garage… This is the classic consequence of the trafficking we face on a daily basis. »
A situation which reminds us that an animal is neither an object nor a simple purchase: it is a living being which deserves protection and respect.

Woopets info – How to recognize a suspicious ad?
Animal trafficking is a real scourge. To avoid supporting, sometimes without knowing it, practices that are illegal or contrary to animal welfare, it is better to take the time to check certain points before any adoption. A few red flags can help you spot an unreliable listing or seller:
- A puppy available too young: early separation can be detrimental to its development;
- A refusal to visit: a serious breeder agrees to show the living conditions of the animals;
- The absence of official documents: identification, health record and information on the animal are essential;
- Delivery of the puppy to an unusual location (in a parking lot, in a neutral location, etc.);
- A seller who is not very transparent: a professional takes the time to answer your questions.
