Closed Ban the import of dogs with cropped ears and/or docked tails into the UK

Closed on

Ears and tails are cut off, often with scissors, for purely cosmetic reasons. These procedures can cause significant suffering, and are already illegal in the UK.

We want a ban on the import of dogs that have cropped ears and/or docked tails to be introduced immediately.
