Rejected petition Fireworks only to be used on Bonfire Night and New Year

More details

This Petition is regarding a ban on Fireworks on nights that don’t include Bonfire night or New Year.

I feel each year fireworks get BIGGER and they go on for weeks before and weeks after Bonfire night.
I am an owner of two dog’s one a puppy. I have sat each night for almost a 2 weeks watching my pets tremble with fear.

I know there is medication out there that they can have to ease this stress but I cant/wont keep them on this medication for almost 2 weeks when this should be a ONE night event.

This petition is not only for the myself and the Animals. This is for anyone out there with small children/babies that have been up for nights on end upset because they don’t understand what the noise is and anyone with a fear of fireworks for any reason what so ever.
