Happy National Puppy Day!!!

This post is particularly close to my heart! ❤️

Let’s see your puppies!!

Behind every well bred dog you got the shadow of a devoted breeder who pours their soul into every dog and every litter.

A puppy is not just a "puppy", it's years of dedication, planning, traveling, testing, training, competing, sleepless nights, financial- emotional- and physical losses, disapointment, happiness, friendship, knowledge, experience, learning, researching, networking and so much more.

It's not just a hobby, it's a lifestyle and years of dedication to a breed.

❗ Livestock worrying- new Bill ❗

⚖️ Today sees The Dogs (Protection of Livestock) (Amendment) Act 2025 come into effect, designed to allow Police stronger enforcement powers and Courts higher penalties to tackle this continuing problem.

📣 Key changes...

💷 Fines increased from £1000 to unlimited
🐪 Definition of livestock expanded to include camelids (such as alpacas and llamas)
🚶‍♂️ Locations for the offence have been broadened to include public paths, roads and bridleways
🚓 Increase of police powers to detain dogs responsible for attacking or worrying livestock
🏠 Ability to obtain warrants to enter premises and search to seize, detain or take samples from dogs

🐑 Remember, the offence of "worrying" doesn't require physical contact. Chasing, running at or causing panic to livestock are all forms of worrying.

🐕‍🦺 It is YOUR responsibility to keep your dog under control around livestock. We would always urge people to use leads to ensure full control. This offence is totally avoidable if dog owners behave responsibly.

A breeder who health tests, temperament tests, studies pedigrees, proves a dog worthy of being bred, and only breeds when doing so is of benefit to the breed is not contributing to the number of homeless dogs.

The number of homeless dogs in the world is a problem, but it is not a problem exacerbated by reputable breeders and those who purchase from them.

Your neighbor down the street who refuses to contain his unaltered dogs IS contributing to the problem.

Your friend who impulse bought a dog IS contributing to the problem.

That guy on freeadds pumping out the trendiest designer mix as fast as he can IS contributing to the problem.

Your relative who just HAS to let their dog have one litter “so she can experience motherhood” or because “she’s just so sweet” IS contributing to the problem.

Your old high school classmate who bought a high energy working breed without taking the time to research its needs and realize it was not a good fit for their household ahead of time IS contributing to the problem.

A reputable breeder offers their lifelong support. A reputable breeder would never allow their dogs to end up in a shelter to begin with. A reputable breeder makes it a contractual obligation to return dogs they have produced back to them should you find yourself unable of keeping it.

It is understandable to be angry about the number of homeless dogs in the world, but if you take a deeper look, you will find your anger is misplaced.

If you take a deeper look, you will find reputable breeders and those of us who purchase from them are just as angry, we are just pointing fingers at the right causes.
