Puppies found crammed into the boot of a car
A joint operation between the Irish and Scottish SPCA found the dogs at a Scottish port.
It's believed the breeds included pugs, Cocker Spaniels and Shih Tzus and they were aged between 4 to 8 weeks old.
They're now being cared for at the ISPCA's National Animal Centre in Longford, and new homes are being sought.
