Rejected petition Introduce a Pet Licensing scheme with FREE neutering, like the Calgary Method.

We urge the Government & Parliament to introduce a mandatory dog licensing scheme inspired by Calgary, Canada. This action is essential due to several pressing issues inc, rescue dogs and the XL Bully attacks in the UK's pet ownership landscape.
Active public involvement can aid a brighter future.
