Stop the sale of animals on classified advertising pages

Petition Details

An animal acquired via a classified ad is also highly likely to have come from a puppy farm or an unethical breeder – people who exploit animals for profit, contributing to the severe companion-animal overpopulation crisis. These animals are likely to end up in a dog baiting/fighting ring.

Additional Information

Shelters across the UK are reporting a rise in the number of dogs coming through their doors, and every time someone buys a dog from a breeder or pet shop, one of these abandoned animals loses his or her chance at finding a permanent home. Every dog deserves to be more than a classified ad.
