'We're picking up the pieces - it's heartbreaking'
The RSPCA says it is bracing for 'an unprecedented winter crisis' after figures revealed huge rises in animal abandonments in Leicestershire.
The charity says that Leicestershire has seen a thirty-three percent increase since 2020.
The charity has been called out to 17,838 cases of animal abandonment in England and Wales so far in 2023 - already surpassing the total for 2020.
Dermot Murphy heads the Animal Welfare Charity's front line rescue team, and explains what's behind the increase - and Caroline Sutton from the Animal sanctuary 'French Bulldog Saviours' tells Ady Dayman that what's she's seeing is absolutely heartbreaking.
