Why this petition matters

Started by tammie fox

I adopted Pumpkin at 8 weeks old. She had been surrendered to a local rescue. Pumpkin had problems walking. After her Scans at a specialist veterinary clinic Pumpkins injuries were shocking and disturbing. She had  recieved injuries due to extreme trauma as a new born puppy. Her spine was broken, along with her legs.
She was not born like this! Someone or something caused these injuries.
Pumpkin is now fully paralysed from the waist down. She will never recover or walk again.

She is not in pain. She is trying to live a normal happy, puppy life without the use of her legs!

She will need intense hydrotherapy and physiotherapy for the rest of her life. 

The breeder needs investigating. We need to know the truth. Was this an accident? Why wasn't she taken to a vets? Why & how did this happen?  We need to know & stop it from happening again. 

Please sign this petition to support her cause and get justice for Pumpkin...

Tougher laws needed for Breeding of animals. Tougher sentences for animal cruelty & neglect.

Puppy mills are the cause of half the animal welfare problems in the UK: 
The poor little bitches are made to produce litter after litter until they are worn out;
The puppies are not looked after properly and even ill treated, as happened to Pumpkin;
They are often not properly inoculated and in poor health; 
Hereditary defects (e.g. epilepsy, eczema) are not weeded out, but allowed to continue into the next generation;
Not enough care is taken to ensure that the puppies go to good homes.
Respectable breeders want to see puppy mills closed down and refuse to deal with them;
People concerned for animal welfare want them closed down; 
For people simply wanting a dog for companionship, plenty of wonderful rescue dogs are available, who need a good home,
from the RSPCA, Battersea etc. 
If the Government claim that they do not have the resources to inspect breeders' establishments, they should delegate the task 
to local authorities or non-Governmental organizations.
