A dog salon on Tenerife is currently the focus of a explosive investigation. According to the Guardia Civil, inadmissible dental treatments on dogs are said to have been carried out in the salon in the south of the island. Surgical instruments, non -approved medication and evidence of dental operations without anesthesia were discovered.
The investigation was initiated by anonymous information. During a check, officials found a number of medical devices, including metallic operating tools and sterile compresses. The discovery of a medication that is only approved for human use was particularly alarming. According to experts, the use of such substances harbors significant health risks for animals.
A veterinarian made it clear that dental interventions in dogs may only be carried out by veterinarians who are also authorized to give anesthesia. For the operator of the salon, this now means serious consequences: it must expect criminal proceedings and high fines. At the same time, proceedings for violations of the Animal Welfare Act and the misuse of medication were initiated.
