This petition was submitted during the 2017-2019 parliament
Petition Ban tying up pets outside of buildings, shops ect.
Leaving pets unaccompanied tied up out of shops and buildings can be distressing for the animal and potentially lead to pet theft, if unaccompanied for a long time.
More details
On numerous occasions I have witnessed dogs tied up outside of betting shops, supermarkets and convenience stores in clear distress. Barking, shaking and crying. If this was a child it would be deemed unacceptable so why is it acceptable for pets (puppies and adults) to be tied up whilst careless owners do as they like.
