Stop online sales of pets

What the petition asks
Make it law that only licensed breeder’s or animal welfare group’s can advertise animals for sale online.
Too many people are exploiting animals especially dogs for financial gain and the welfare of the animals is often non existent. It encourages puppy farming, over breeding and people’s pets being stolen. Genuine people with puppies for sale could go through a licensed institution.
