Stop Dogs4Us trading in battery-farmed puppies in the UK!

All over the world, animal lovers are determined to be the Voice of abused, tortured and neglected animals. 

This petition is our opportunity (world-wide) to shout "NO MORE! Battery-Farming of Pet Dogs for Profit in the UK!" 
 


FACT 1
: Thousands of puppies are battery-farmed in unimaginable appalling and deprived conditions. Dogs4Us (one of the UK's largest dog-battery farm retailers), buys puppies from suppliers who rear dogs like battery-hens, in conditions of cruelty and neglect.



FACT 2: In 2009, nearly 7,000 abandoned/unwanted pet dogs in the UK had to be humanely killed and more than 135,000 dogs were rescued from abuse and neglect by the RSPCA. 



FACT 3
: These awful puppy battery-farms imprison dozens of exhausted breeding females in small, dirty and uncomfortable pens, where they spend their entire desolate lives, without access to natural light, outside exercise areas or hope of a better life.



FACT 4: These poor mothers are continuously bred every time they come into season (without a break), until their exhausted bodies can no longer take the strain of further pregnancies. They are then killed, never having experienced a comfortable life or even to know what it is like to be loved. 



FACT 5: Thousands of puppies spend their first weeks of life sharing their exhausted mother's impoverished existence. Inevitably, many of these puppies are born with underlying ill-health problems. 



FACT 6: Many of these puppy battery-farms have just one or two members of staff to look after hundreds of pregnant dogs and their puppies, which is impossible to do properly.



FACT 7: Even when these licensed breeding premises are inspected by (under-staffed) local authorities, enforcement of the Animal Welfare Act is unsurprisingly inadequate.



FACT 8: Many reputable organisations are tirelessly campaigning to introduce a legal ban of this abhorrent trade.



FACT 9: Many ordinary citizens around the world want to show their commitment to bringing an end to the misery experienced by thousands of battery-farmed dogs and puppies.



FACT 10: Ordinary and law-abiding people will be showing their abhorrence
at Dogs4Us Ltd's involvement and profit in this cruel dog battery-farming trade. There will be a peaceful and law-abiding public demonstration outside the Leeds and Manchester branches of Dogs4Us Ltd. Everyone is invited!

Dear Mr Raymond McCadden & Mr Laurence Coe,
Directors of Dogs4Us Ltd.




As the owners of Dogs4Us Ltd, we call on you to immediately stop all trading in live puppies.









Although Companies House lists Dogs4Us Ltd as "In Liquidation", your website and Facebook pages give the impression that it business as usual. 




Your business of mass-buying puppies, from puppy farms, and selling them on, without conducting even basic home checks, makes you a major part of the problem that the RSPCA is left to deal with as best as it can. 







Few of your successful PetPlanet.co.uk customers know about your direct connection with the cruel battery-farm puppy industry. Few of your customers would be happy to learn that the battery-farmed puppies that you buy are sold on as registered pedigree puppies, to unsuspecting members of the public. 




We respectfully appeal to your conscience and ask you to put an immediate stop to all trading in battery-farmed puppies by Dogs4Us.




Both of you are Directors of numerous other businesses that are listed as "Active" by Companies House, and easily can afford to act with integrity. 
 





Thank you.
