"you will be reported for wanting to make scarfs out of poor innocent puppies" - the person who was going to sell poor innocent puppies to someone who said they wanted to make scarves out of them
OMG hey Julia!
How dumb are they that they fell for it, dough?
Exactly!!
He didn’t even stutter!! Just agreed to sell them for scarves without batting an eye
You know a company is legit when they get back to Joe and say "We are very good buisness and we have 8,000,000,000 happy customers who love us so shove it"
As someone who does animal rescue for a living, this puppy farm bullshit really gets to me.. I support adopt don't shop but be aware of where the animal is coming from and be wary of what and who you're supporting :v
True. A lot of backyard breeders will claim to be selling rescue dogs, when puppy is older and hasn't sold, just to get some money back on a pup that is now hard to sell. They also sell their poor overbred bitches as 'rescues'
AND you also have people STEALING dogs to sell as 'rescues'
You do have to be careful.
@@georgielancaster1356 whereas all the animals I've ever helped have been from the street or a ditch
I see it as a population issue as breeders aresnt that much of an issue where I am but they still are about
Adopt don't shop!
You can find almost any animal you want at a shelter! Call around and ask! You'd be surprised what they have.
I accidentally got a ragdoll siamese cat as a kitten from the SPCA! While she probably isn't purebred, a cat across the street that looks exactly like her was bought for $2000. 😲
$200 (chipped, vaccinated, spayed) compared to $2000.
Absolutely! I have a pure bred dachshund from the RSPCA from when they did a raid on a puppy farm. Plenty of dogs out there that need adopting, surely there’s one to meet everyone’s needs!
$200 is approx £160 $2,000 is about £1,600 for conversion purposes
@Ксенія♡укр surrogacy vs adoption we do the same business with people don't expect us to stop doing it with animals before we stop doing it with people what am I bid for this genuine African baby going once going twice
Exactly also people need to stop buying 'pure' aka inbred animals.
wont stop new puppys being born good breeders spend lots of money on raising pups so they have to make that money bck and usually a profit to survice they are people to that need to make a living
Furries exist and this is the best you could do for dog costumes? Lol love your work Joe.

@@Totalinternalreflection rdj ftw. If u true you will know what i mean.
adopt, don't shop.
Very valid! For first time owners however, or people intrested in training for service or therapy shop it’s better to buy from families who have had a litter, this avoids any potential trauma that could effect behaviour

And most importantly ADOPT don’t shop.
Don’t buy a puppy. Adopt.
I'm disappointed they didn't stress that.
so how would you adopt a dog if no one bought puppies, the only reason you can is because someone bought it in the first place, if no one bought one you wouldnt have any to adopt, use a bit of logic.
In a sense, all puppies/dogs are adopted by a human or a family. you meant to say "rescue" I believe.. Not that you dragged it out of a river and saved it from drowning, but you picked it up at the pound.
There is nothing wrong with buying a new puppy (from a trustworthy source), if you are ready to keep it until death do you apart. Even when the dog gets sick and becomes incontinent or whatever may be, you gotta hold on to it. That's the responsibility of owning a pet. Sadly, many people get "inconvenianced" by their dog and don't see it as a family member. Shame on them.
One can go either way. Give an abandoned dog a new home or raise one up from being a puppy. The important thing is, you take care of it and understand it is a dog lifetime responsibilty. Then there would be no need for dog pounds in the first place. If you never had a dog in your life, read about it and study it and think long and hard about owning a dog. It should not be an impulsive spur of the moment decision.
I totally agree, and it sickens me how people are willing pay hundreds or thousands on a “trendy”, pedigree breed when there are so many animals languishing in shelters just waiting to be put down.
@@Ericcssonn sadly, many people often buy pedigree dogs for the wrong reasons, namely as fashion accessories or because they are just ‘cute’. They fail to take into account the typical traits of each type of dog, or the fact that many varieties are so inbred they suffer from many congenital mental and physical issues. When those issues start to manifest, the owners then find owning the dogs to be a burden and pass them to shelters or euthanize them. I’m not saying that is typical of all owners of pedigree animals, but you ask any shelter and they will tell you they receive a hell of a lot of animals this way.
I might start signing off my emails with that last line 🤣🤣
The most repulsive thing
These puppy farms are horrific. Please never take part in any of this.
Always report it 🙏

Love this show!
people pay 1,500 pounds for a dog? what?
My brother spent $3000 on a cat, it’s a cute cat but….
A lot of the time people pay that much for a purebred dog from a good, reputable family line
@@Echo126_ so inbred dogs with deformities?
I've seen idiots pay that much for a poodle x from a backyard breeder.
I have rescued for 40 plus years - run a rescue - not just adopted a family dog.
I reported an add on pets for homes and they did fuck all about it. No one buy dogs or puppies from there
One hopes the production team sent the evidence to the police afterwards
What caused the team to not follow up a few days later and catch them in the act? Did they twig the sale was not legit and bailed?
Maybe unsafe?
That Joe Lycett looks a lot like Hugo Boss
Lol. Who knew he was so good at sewing?
lorraine reading the message at the end gives me life
it's OK to buy a dog, but if you want a healthy pure breed, be prepared to spend the money and wait a long time, as the waiting lists are very long at registered breeders. What is not OK is breeding dogs without the knowledge and trying to save money by buying from these irresponsible "breeders" who only give a shit about the income.
Oh shit I got my crested gecko from that site (her original family had 4 other lizards and the kids, who were technically the owners, were beginning to have trouble balancing homework and pet care).
dw it's usually a very responsible site
Usually the site is very good, it's just unfortunate that in some cases people slip under the radar
Nobody's smuggling cresties
AHHH IT'S THE PROBATION WORKER FROM MISFITS... ONE OF THEM ANYWAY...
7:45 reminded me of the background music of the staircase scene of squid game! All the squid games' background music is hard to get out of my head😂😕
Why would anyone buy a dog from a dodgy pet breeder, when there are so many stuck in rescue homes?
I miss this show :(
It’s in to series 2 now
And don't even get me started on the felonious felines!
top tier
1 in 3 dogs are from ireland frams
Just FYI also that certain groups in Ireland are known for stealing dogs especially puppies from people and bringing them over to the UK to sell
Yes. My contacts in rescue in Britain say Ireland is the main problem. They set up a house in England and put family/employees in and pretend it is just one family dog breeding.
So people visit and it looks okay, but they have HUNDREDS of pups brought over and once IN England, can sell online, etc. I think they banned puppies being brought over from Ireland, but they now set up a house in England and the people who want puppies rarely care enough to not deal with these scum.
Don't buy. Only adopt
Okay, say what you want but as someone who’s had an inside view of the dog breeding world, that dog was over priced. According to its card it id a mix breed, it shouldn’t cost a grand and a half
Supply and demand, so many people wanted to get a puppy over lockdown so “breeders” hiked up their prices to take advantage of that. I read somewhere that cockatoos were one of the most sought-after mixed breed puppies. I agree, £1500 is too much for a mixed breed puppy, but clearly many people were willing to pay this if it meant they could have their lockdown puppy.
@@faithmartin251 Pretty sure you mean cockaPoos, not cockatoos.
New episodes i hope?
Thanks Loraine, but that's not really good enough is it. Here's some better advice for anyone who wants a dog:
Don't buy a puppy.
In fact, don't buy a dog.
Instead, adopt an unwanted dog.
There are plenty of beautiful dogs to go around, and exchanging money for pets only incentivises these and other practices ranging from dodgy to horrific.
Don't buy dogs.
Reputable licensed breeders aren't the problem.
You have no health history with a shelter dog
@@YurimoHikashi
You do have health backgrounds for most of those taken to a shelter.
Besides, what if you don’t? Take it to a vet, get it checked and sorted.
@@YurimoHikashi "reputable" pet breeders aren't _this_ problem (most of the time), but they have their own set of problems.
The primary one being, why are we breeding dogs for companionship when so many dogs are cast out and alone, looking for the exact same thing?
If you're not a professional trainer looking for a puppy to train for a specific job, there is no reason to pay a breeder.
The cost of a puppy could go towards investigative vet appointments, and insurance to cover unforseen health issues for your rescue.
@@saltypork101 some people want to raise a pet from “scratch” (obviously not straight from the mother’s womb) and there is no shame in that. I’m for people considering adoption when seeking a pet but i think a large part of the dog owner community is starting to shame people for buying puppies from breeders when this isn’t really a problem as long as the breeder is a responsible and licensed one.
@@cahan557Sure, makes sense.
As long as you don't mind incentivising the creation of "pedigree" puppies, which is just fancy talk for inbreeding.
Every single breed has some kind of hereditary health problem associated with them. Some more than others (looking at you, pugs), but no breed escapes the curse.
Joe should have been given the cruela roal
I hope this put the wind up the puppy dealers and has made them change their ways, but, unfortunately I doubt it. Could you try something more efficacious? It really is a serious problem for those who love dogs and are heart broken when within a couple of months they find out that the dog is seriously ill.
Are you having a laugh. The stokes family 😂 promise it wasn’t me 😂
Wtf he was willing to sell multiple dogs for fur!
where can i get loraines shirt?
tinder
most importantly ADOPT
CHARGE YOUR BLOODY PHONE HUGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Better yet, don't buy a puppy. Go to the shelter and adopt. So many dogs are put down each year, why encourage the breeding of more when so many already need homes.
Alot of puppy milli places have set up homes. where they have supposedly mother and dad decorate the house like its a loving environment but its not at all. Its just to fall you, the lengths these people go to are just sick and uncaring.
True. The house in England set up as just one family dog breeding, is used a lot by the Irish. A lot of puppy farming comes from there - and it's illegal to sell direct from Ireland, I think.
One rescue that takes in the heartbreakingly over bred bit ches from puppy farms, is a rescue called MANY TEARS. Possibly in Wales?
I believe they have a policy of taking them because if they don't, many worn out females would then be abandoned or have their throats cut... It is a truly ugly, nasty industry.
I think most rescues in Britain agree Ireland is the biggest problem. That's what I wss told by my contacts in rescue.
I believe in America, the Amish have an appalling reputation. I have seen some horrific sights, with raids filmed. I had had no idea!
adopt not shop if u can!
In Canada we have the Humane Society which rescues animals, and tends to their medical needs, so that they are safe to be adopted by local people, and they will spay and neuter for free. Why 'rescue' an animal from overseas?
should not be buying puppies in the first place, that shold have been the CORE message, and not said once.
😂
Adopt dont shop
Adopt don't shop.
My dog was rescued from being a breeding bitch at a puppy farm. 2 litters in her first 2 seasons poor girl.
She's safe and loved and happy now though, and a very good girl.
Adopt, don't shop.
It's a problem as well.
When people adopt for free, they are easier to abandon the dog.
Having paid for a dog, they consider it a waste of money to abandon it.
@@aekara1987 as opposed to not adopting where now there's two dogs, one in a shelter (going to be killed unless someone adopts them) and one maybe being abandoned or maybe not.
@@aekara1987 I don't know any good shelter that doesn't ask for an adoption fee
ADOPT.
Ello joe
I understand the adopt don't shop, however even adoption takes a long time.
Not all shelters know the dogs past or full needs. Not all dogs are suitable for family settings or working adults, who cannot be with that dog all day.
There are instances where buying a puppy is more suitable and aslong as that animal is loved and taken care of, isn't that the most important thing? I think the tips were good points! I think licences and checks on the bitch and dog should be made a law, to stop backyard breeders.
Everyone can find a dog suitable for them in a shelter, buying is absolutely unnecessary
If you go to the best rescues, they have dogs living in foster homes, know them as well as their own children. You can get a near perfect, already trained dog, if you are prepared to choose wisely and pick a dog for personality, and perfect fit for you, not looks or breed.
Though you can be lucky and get beauty or hilarious looks PLUS a quiet disposition.
If you buy a puppy, you will STILL have all the puppy pain for up to 3 years. Will have chewing, peeing on the floor, huge energy you have to deal with and unless extremely experienced; probably 1 to 2 years of committed weekend and after work training, to get a quiet, well balanced dog, that is a pleasure to live with.
A lot of dogs at kill pounds are only a year old. Bought as purebred or fashionable crosses, pups, not trained, bored rigid, getting into trouble, picking up bad habits, and at 12 months, dumped at kill pound.
LOOKS adult. Still totally undisciplined - still highly energetic. The people who dump them are the people who never do any training and almost never exercise them.
Fact is, most people who claim they want a puppy not a rescue, it's more about that rescues CHECK you are a great home, whereas people who BUY puppies from most breeders, generally get no real checks. Very few visit your home, etc.
You have the big cash, you gets the dog. When someone would rather pay £1000 - £3000 for a puppy, rather than adopt a civilised dog - OR PUPPY, for £200 or £300 or so, INCLUDING desexing, shots, vax, etc... They always show on my potentially dodgy radar.
You can also go to breed SPECIFIC rescues, if a particular breed is SO important. If the national breed club does not rescue it's own breed, I wouldn't have anything to do with them.
Multiple people got paid to get in dog costumes, act like a dog in front of an audience and walk out in public. I do not envy those people.
embarrassing one for the irish
What the... spoilers wtf, I've not finished season 3 yet
Maybe just contact the police next time
always go to a rescue centre!! buying is unethical and unnecessary
Irish travellers
Not just travellers. Not all travellers - that is unfair. A lot of boozy uneducated families on acres see it as great money so they don't have to work.
@@georgielancaster1356except the stokes are tinkers
really wish they hadnt done that ridiculous acting and twerking during the tips on safely buying a dog - that was the most important bit and it was just full on ignored, whose idiotic idea was that?
I mean to be fair it is a comedy show, and if you want serious advice probably go elsewhere
If you genuinely rely on a comedy show as research before getting a dog, then you shouldn't be allowed to own any sort of pet. Stupid thing for you to get annoyed about
If you don’t know your talking to a gyppo as soon as he answers the phone then you really shouldn’t be trying to buy a dog
I have to keep reminding myself this is a comedy show and not a consumer rights show. If it were the latter, Joe probably wouldn't steal the camera from Lorraine, nor undermine the investigative work being done to catch these crooks.
Hell, they'd probably actually _achieve something significant_ if it wasn't for his pantomiming. But as I said, comedy show. Can't expect anything else I guess.
The fact its a comedy show makes people watch it and makes it more powerful. It has achieved lots and reaches a wider audience so unless you can find a more successful example of a consumer rights show go moan elsewhere?
So you brought no-one to justice, let them get away, didn't shame anyone and made no impact on a company that couldn't care less about the illegal dog trade?
All while making a mockery of the hundreds of dogs stolen and sold on every year?
Yeah this was a lame one
Don't be a dunce, there's hundreds of live dogs that get eaten and abused in China every year yet I don't see you doing anything about it. 🤔🤔
Token anger is useless my friend.
@@jac9301 He was talking about this show specifically, there was nothing in it about the China dog meat festivals as it is local. It failed to deliver a solution to a very real problem it took on, therefore it is fair to be angry at it
@@79069191998 it is a comedy show used to highlight and help tackle problems within it's power so no he has no right to be angry, this is not a worldwide charity with endless funds and friends in the right places, it gets a small amount of funding for a series and that's it, referring back to your patronising and condescending ways the Chinese dog trade is causing far more damage than to the species at home but again I'm not surprised you couldn't see how I was highlighting his token anger when you're busy defending people who throw live dogs in boiling hot oil.
You're far too stupid to converse with at the moment.
@@jac9301 Illegal dog trade is not a victimless crime, and this is a show that highlights local problems in the UK, not in China. Also, you have no right to tell anyone how they should feel about anything
How fucking stupid can they be with "we're gonna report you for wanting to do sick things with the puppies" how can you realize it was bullshit but still not realize that the most obviously fictional bit was part of the bullshit
With a name like Stokes, I wander what "nomadic ethnic group" they belong to......I wonder
Hmmmm thought that too
Ahahaha my thoughts exactly. Stokes getting dogs from Ireland. What are the chances 😂😂
I hope joe got a good laugh for his show before reporting a serious situation about the mistreatment of animals to the relevant authorities.
Would it of been as funny if he acted in the same manner regarding a child?
This is classed as comedy...FML
Wait, whats the issue here? These people just have a bussiness set up in Ireland (quite close and not a third world country) and they want to sell. Why is it not the UK govt under fire here? Its only 'smuggling' because its 'not allowed' for some random reason. Have some norms for the age and comfort of the puppy while travelling and let people sell. Children of all animals travel young safely (including humans) why can't puppies?
1) There is zero evidence here suggesting that the puppy supplier mistreated them
2) There is zero evidence here that the puppies here are even younger than their legal age for transport. Joe conveniently just states 'very young' instead of actual numbers.
3) The puppy supplier was not really trying to hide he was getting puppies from Ireland, if he was, he would upload a fake UK vaccination certificate, not an Irish one.
Or he could have been too thick and lazy to notice or even care about the country on the papers. Clearly the people buying don't care what sort of scum gets their money, just as long as they have a supplier for what they want.
Maybe you should check out some of the overbred, tragic little female dogs that MANY TEARS rescue takes from Ireland so they won't have their throats cut and be buried in trenches, etc. Or be dumped in kill pounds in Ireland, with no hope.
MANY TEARS is one of the major rescuers for Irish puppy mill dogs.
So they often get their teeth removed so they can eat without pain, a hundred other things seen to...
@@georgielancaster1356 I am totally against animal brutality too. Your comment though assumes that over breeding only happens in Ireland and not in UK. It happens everywhere. One of the reasons it happens is because of UK import restrictions. Restrictions lead to working in the shadows, which leads to fewer females to breed. This is true for all animals we use, sheep, cows, pigs, everything
