</p><p> </p><p>The data for commercial imports covers the number of animals imported
into the UK, and was extracted from TRACES through the Qlikview facility by searching
for imports of dogs and their commodity codes in 2018 to the UK by country of origin.
These figures cover all commercially imported dogs, including commercial puppies,
rescue dogs, research dogs and unaccompanied pets.</p><p> </p><p>The information that
the Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) has provided is a true reflection of the
information that is held. APHA cannot guarantee the accuracy of this data, as the
information has been entered into TRACES by a third party.</p><p> </p>
