SWNSSue and Dave Bell, who care for 31 dogs, say the shelter has become uninhabitable[/caption]

But they say the shelter, a converted stable near Newton Abbot, Devon, has become uninhabitable.

They need new accommodation for them and the dalmatians, who eat 15kg of dog food a day.

Sue, 54, said: “The pups have the best we can give.

“We are on the side of a valley so when it rains it floods.

“The roof has holes in it so we are exposed to the elements.

“In summer it is so dusty.”
