Heartbreaking, horrific animal abuse
Sad I even had to put one star to be fair, as this company shouldn’t even be trading… total lack of any animal welfare standards & horrific abuse uncovered at this company… Money & greed driven family, helped along with staff that clearly shouldn’t be anywhere near animals. Prosecute all & shut the place down!!!

Animal torturers of the worst kind
Animals being tortured to death whilst the workers are laughing.
Watch Joey Carbstrong's undercover footage.
Needs to be closed down immediately and all workers sent to prison.
Avoid this company at all costs.

Despicable company
Anyone who has watched Joey Carbstrong's footage can be in no doubt about this place. I have never seen such gratuitous cruelty in my life. ..all under the noses of the FSA vets who obviously are not fit for purpose. Animals are still being sent there. It needs shutting down immediately.
