Dog meat used in hot dogs
Two directors of a Belgian meat wholesaler have been arrested after dog meat was found in hot dogs around Europe.
More than 20,000 kilos of hot dogs were seized by food inspectors during a routine visit to the company's headquarters in Brussels.
Several thousand of the dog food contaminated hot dogs have turned up in Holland, according to the Dutch Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority.
Checks are being carried out to see in what other countries the hot dogs may have been sold.
