The case concerns definitively seized dogs whose owner could no longer care for them. The owner proposed placing the animals in Italy, but the court held that this was incompatible with the cantonal veterinary office’s need to supervise detention conditions at all times. The request was therefore rejected and the protective measure maintained.
OPA. 1; definitively seized animals may only be placed where the competent authority can ensure continuous control of their detention conditions. A foreign placement is inadmissible if it prevents effective supervision by the veterinary authority and thereby undermines the purpose of the protective measure.

Résumé
Deux chiens séquestrés définitivement parce que leur propriétaire est incapable de s'en occuper ne sauraient être placés en Italie, l'office vétérinaire cantonal devant rester en mesure de contrôler en tout temps les conditions de leur détention.
Whether definitively seized dogs may be placed in Italy instead of remaining under local supervision.
No. The dogs could not be placed in Italy because the cantonal veterinary office had to remain able to monitor the conditions of their detention at all times.
A foreign placement would prevent the authority from exercising continuous oversight over the animals' keeping conditions, which was required in view of the protective measure.
