Mandatory Animal Care course to be taken prior to all domestic pet purchases

Petition Details

Enforce a law which requires all citizens to take a course indicating to the individual the specific needs of each species of pet prior to purchase. Also a possible background check to be done on individual to avoid animals going into abusive households.

Additional Information

Due to Covid 19, funding for animal shelters have taken a drastic hit resulting in several organisations to close as well as some branches for bigger organisations. This mandatory test encourages individuals not to purchase pets on impulse and understand the requirements of owning pets. This should help ease the strain on shelters for unwanted pets and circumvent pets going into abusive households. Furthermore many people have dated ideologies such as dominance theory in relation to dogs.
