Campaigns:

 

Repeal Breed Specific Law - the legislation has resulted in the deaths of thousands of dogs and much suffering, both human and canine, since its introduction. We believe, as do many others, that the law is unworkable, unjust and does not protect the public as the real root of the problem is irresponsible and uneducated dog owners and dog breeders.


'Puppy Farms' -You may have already heard of the phrase ‘Puppy Farming’ but are probably unaware of just how big an issue this is in the UK. You can help end puppy farming and the suffering it causes.


Better Safeguards for Seized Dogs - please support the petition to help bring about changes for seized dogs and their owners.


'Saving Bruce' Appeal - attempt to save death row dog Bruce-Help MeBruce. Held under draconian law for two years, due to die by lethal injection.

Please visit our Bruce Appeal page for information on how you can help. Support needed urgently as legal battle continues.
