Dogs are raped by humans on the streets, rounded up and killed in a move to 'clean' cities and their owners are performing brutal at-home amputations - those are some of the horrors unfolding on the streets of holiday hotspots.

The sought after Mediterranean locations of Egypt, Morocco and Turkey are visited by thousands of Brits each year - but at the same time hundreds of animals are mistreated, abused and even killed.

Behind the beaches, bars and resorts is a darker side that holidaymakers do not often see.

Amid the horror, there are some devoted volunteers who are trying to save some of the animals living in dire conditions.

Georgia Tesfaye, 30, has started rescuing dogs from Egypt after hearing gruesome stories of abuse, forced amputations and even rapes of animals in the country.
