@MPIainDS TY for your amazing help. Thanks to you the Pet Theft Taskforce was created by the Government back in 2021. Their report led to the original Pet Abduction Bill. Keeping everything crossed that Royal Assent is achieved in the time left for this Parliamentary session 🐾❤️🐾
The current trends for designer features in dogs and cats result in lifelong suffering to these animals.
📢We want the Govt to work with the sector to introduce a public information campaign to raise awareness around welfare issues & harms of so called ‘designer’ pets.

It’s estimated that less than half of the puppies entering the market are from licensed breeders.
📢We're calling for a reduction in the litter licensing threshold, and a public list of all licenced sellers to help to counter low welfare breeding practices.

🐕We also want the Govt to ensure:
▪️ A ban on the importation of puppies and kittens under six months
▪️ A limit on the number of dogs and cats that can be imported by an individual into the UK from five per person to five per vehicle, and three per foot or air passenger
6/8
The import & sale of declawed cats & dogs with cropped ears or docked tails is currently not prohibited.
We want the Govt to:
▪️close the loophole that enables the importation of mutilated animals
▪️legislate to restrict the possession, sale & supply of DIY ear cropping kits
4/8
We want the Govt to introduce a new Veterinary Surgeons Act to update that of 1966. This should include the regulation of canine fertility clinics.
💷We also want the fine for illegally performing acts of veterinary surgery to be increased from its current maximum of £100.

For 9 months, Gabby didn't walk her dog, Rogue.
A Romanian rescue puppy, Rogue faced trauma and anxiety from a combination of lockdown, adolescents and 2 dog attacks.
Today, Rogue is growing in confidence, a testament to Gabby's love, efforts and 9 months of #dontwalkyourdogday

A clear breach of the Animal Welfare Act 2006.
The animal is suffering.
The suffering is as a result of an act and/or a failure to act.
The animal is a protected animal.
The suffering is unnecessary

For God’s sake, shut this ancient shit show down 🤬
This French Bulldog - with no discernible nostrils and an almost concave face - won not just Best of Breed at Crufts today but also the Utility Group.
A terrible day for the breed. Am gutted.
We were delighted to be in Parliament yesterday with our colleagues to speak to MPs about @SelaineSaxby important Bill which will tackle puppy and kitten smuggling @RSPCA_official
Fantastic work from the equally fantastic Poppy from ADUK member @ServiceDogsUK as she shows the lifechanging practical impact a trained PTSD assistance dog can have in enabling veterans to move on with their lives. #AssistanceDogs#PTSD#LifeChanging#LifeSaving

After hearing howling from other species:
-Coyotes responded to wolves, but not dogs
-Wolves responded to coyotes, but not dogs
-Dogs responded to both coyotes and wolves
Dogs just want to be a part of the group😆
(But actually, dogs are being good guardians for their humans)
