Very much in line with the same polemics as in Slovakia, dogs were retrieved from a Rroma settlement near Poznan and are said to have been maltreated and abused. Amongst the abuse cited here: “Among quadrupeds located within the encampments was a bitch of a few days to eight puppies. She was lying in the outdoors, in makeshift shack, which did not give any protection against the cold. Animals should absolutely not be in such conditions – says Agnieszka Wolska, a veterinarian.”
Well, she did barely worse than the Rroma with whom she was living.
