Help End Puppy Farms

I just found this link on the Wood Green Animal Charity website, at the bottom of the article there is a link to an official government E Petition:

http://www.woodgreen.org.uk/news/2592_petition_to_ban_puppy_farming

their always going be back yard breeders

Yes, there will, but puppy farms are altogether different. They can be stamped out as long as the government are prepared to tighten the laws on how many breeding bitches any establishment can own.

if someone want to breed silly amount of dog how is the goverment going to stop without pumping silly amount of money in to it

All they have to do is what they did in Wales - ban establishments having more than a certain amount of breeding bitches, and introduce laws to prevent them dealing in pups (buying in & selling on).

These places are easy to find & so they're easy to police, unlike the small scale bybs who operate out of family homes.

Completely agree, most big puppy factories are know about, there is just not the right laws to do anything about it.

Hate breeding farms they are disgusting the way they treat the animals and everytime people like RSPCA for example go to them their are loads of dogs that have ended up blind, major skin conditions etc so cruel so I'm off to sign

I signed it already, I think. Wales has the right idea IMO. Puppy farming is disgraceful.

Done

I've signed it

Ive signed it

Job done..

Me too

signed, it it only manages to put one out of business its well worth it

The most awful places ever. I know a lady that has a female boxer that was seized from a puppy farm and she was so ill she had to have her eye removed, and walks with her head sideways because her cage was so small

I was sue I commented here :/

My aunties Yorkie is from one. They dunno what age she is and can't get an age done cause she's got no teeth! They think she's only about 5.

But are puppy farms not already illegal anyway?

Unfortunately not. As long as they get the licence from the local authorities they can do virtually whatever they want.

that's ridiculous!!!

Signed and will share. That's really shocked me lol

Just signed up. These people are no better than the scum who promote dog fighting

Fella, if you met the dog you'd feel even worse. She a total Princess, so unbelievably relaxed and well behaved. Walks with no lead whatsoever, 100% perfect.

She is so very sad/depressed though.

Puppy farms are the most awful places in the world. How anyone even considers abusing an animal to make money is beyond me.
