Petition Action

Amend AW Regs to include certain breed specific hereditary health tests

Petition Details

The government to appoint a panel of independent vets to produce a list of the most serious and detrimental breed specific hereditary diseases to be included in the AW Regs helping LA inspectors know what certificates to see during inspections also bringing clarity for both puppy buyers & breeders.

Additional Information

Puppy buyers will know which health certificates to see prior to buying a puppy, reducing the chance of heartache & the financial burden of living with a family member with a chronic condition.
The list will help breeders know which tests they must perform prior to breeding enabling them to consider, whilst still maintaining genetic diversity, the results alongside temperament & conformation in their breeding program resulting in fewer pups in the future being born with hereditary diseases

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you are concerned about dogs having hereditary diseases, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. Your petition refers to producing lists of hereditary diseases and adding thee to animal welfare legislation, but it's not clear exactly what changes you want to be made to animal welfare legislation, and whether you want these changes to create new requirements for breeders, or anyone else.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
