Petition Increase regulation of animal sales

We believe that the legislation surrounding animal sales is insubstantial and should be changed to incorporate new requirements for breeders, and restrictions on sales and advertising of sales.

More details

New regulations should include:

Animals to be sold through the breeder only, not through pet shops and third parties (this law currently only applies to cats and dogs)

All breeders to be licensed regardless of species or number of litters

Adverts for stud animals to be banned

Adverts for animal sales to be banned in the month prior to Christmas and the month prior to Easter

Animals must have had their recommended vaccinations before being sold
