Health Expert Simone Schüle Ousted After Deadly Dog Cruelty Scandal
Dr. Simone Schüle, a renowned health expert and former SRF contributor, has been removed from her media roles following an animal cruelty scandal. The case emerged after authorities intervened at her farm in Ramiswil, where over 120 dogs perished and dozens of other animals were seized.
The scandal first came to light in early November when the Solothurn veterinary office stepped in. They euthanized around 120 dogs due to their poor condition and removed dozens of horses and other animals from Schüle’s property. Investigations later revealed allegations that she owed thousands of Swiss francs to multiple people for unpaid animal boarding and care.
The animal cruelty investigation has cost Schüle her media roles and damaged her professional reputation. With multiple outlets removing or disowning her work, the scandal continues to have concrete consequences. Authorities are still examining the financial and welfare claims linked to her farm.
