PUPPY FARMS TO BE BANNED

I have been lobbying against puppy farms for years and at last action is being taken to stop them in Queensland. Hopefully other states and territories around Australia will soon follow.
This is an article published in the Sunday Mail (22.1.12) about the issue:
DOG FARMS TARGETED
The Queensland government aims to wipe out puppy farms under proposed registration requirements for dog breeders.Agriculture minister Tim Mulherin said yesterday unscrupulous breeders, who usually ran large-scale operations in isolated areas, would be squeezed out under a proposed two-tiered breeder registration system.
“These notorious operations generally have very poor conditions – sometimes with hundreds of dogs – and fail to meet any of the dogs’ behavioural, social and physiological needs,” he said.
Sar’s comment about puppy farms: For the welfare of Puppies around Australia, this can’t happen quick enough!
Please consult a qualified animal naturopath for advice about nutritionally-balanced diets and naturopathic medicines for the treatment of animals.
