Closed stop gumtree selling dogs

Closed on

Gumtree is for secondhand goods. Pets should not be classed as that. There is no moderation done for either seller or buyer. So many gumtree dogs are given to abusive homes, fighting rings, breeding farms and more. There are also sellers with dogs advertised every week.
There needs to be a stop to this and something put in place to allow homes and buyers to be checked and proper moderation on a pet only site
