Overview
- Local boys spotted a transport box near the A6 bridge in Öhringen and called police.
- The box was hidden in a bush off a field path, which put the small dogs at serious risk.
- Officers gave first aid at the Öhringen station before moving the puppies to Tierheim Waldenburg for care.
- Police are investigating a suspected violation of the Tierschutzgesetz and ask witnesses from the Zwerchweg and Westallee area to call 07941 9300.
- Abandoning pets near highways often triggers police and shelter responses because the animals face immediate danger from traffic, exposure, and lack of food.
