Rejected petition microchips and neutering by law for all dogs.

More details

So many unwanted dogs in England, most are mistreated abandoned or used for fighting. This petition is close to my heart. I want there to be a responsible dog owner law. a law that states all dog owners are to have their pet neutered and microchipped by law. I'm hoping that with the help of the public we can raise the issue and get it passed by 2016. Obviously we cant neuter all dogs, I feel pedigree owners should have to apply (and pay) for a license that entitles them to breed with another licensed dog.
The rspca are over run with abandoned and unwanted dogs. These dogs can't help themselves. so LET'S HELP THEM!
