    MPs To Debate Puppy Farming Petition In Parliament

    Animal welfare campaign group PupAid urge all dog and cat owners to ask their MPs to attend September’s Commons debate
    PupAid, the anti-puppy farming campaign started by TV Vet Marc Abraham, are calling on all animal lovers to contact their MP to support the debate on the sale of puppies and kittens in pet shops.
    Taking place in the Main Chamber of the House of Commons on Thursday September 4th this debate will be the first of its kind discussing puppy farming, responsible breeding, and rescue pet adoption.
    Campaigning group PupAid were awarded this debate after collecting over 100,000 signatures on their government e-petition last year, the amount needed to trigger a debate. Their petition calls for a ban on the sale of puppies and kittens without their mums, i.e. pet shops, garden centres, even ‘puppy supermarkets’ intended to starve the UK’s puppy farming industry of business.

    I don't think banning just pet shops is enough - we need to see the end of commercial breeders :/

    Marc the vet gave an excellent and very moving discussion that I'm sure will educate lots of viewers that were totally unaware of the horrors of these places, he also did explain that through complications with DEFRA, why the were tackling pet shops first .
