Jail time for people abusing & killing animals & being banned from keeping them

Petition Details

Everyday I read in papers animals being stabbed, abused, killed and nothing is being done, the rspca & the sspca cannot stop these people, i want jail time and a register that stops these people keeping animals and that the public have access to this to report anyone seen with pets.

Additional Information

Everyday people are seeing pictures from the public abusing animals, a man was seen with a puppy to young to be walked being dragged down a street from exhaustion another man was seen beating his dog in a street and people videoed this but done nothing to help, i want a law that the public can intervene if this is witnessed or call the police who need to respond asap. there is many more heart-breaking cases and there needs to be a register to let everyone know who is a abuser!

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.

It's already possible to be banned from keeping animals and to receive a prison sentence for animal abuse. You can find out more here: www.sentencingcouncil.org.uk/offences/item/animal-cruelty-revised-2017/

We're therefore not sure what further action you would like the UK Government or Parliament to take.

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