Bosses at a Kent rescue centre say they're not rehoming as many pets and fear it's because more people are buying them online...
Battersea Dogs and Cats Home at Brands Hatch have seen a 13% drop in their dog rehoming figures since 2016.
Anna Hemmings from the centre says getting a pet you've seen advertised on the internet can be risky.
In the UK, a new 'dog or cat for sale advert' is created online every two to four minutes.
