What the petition asks
When October hit, fireworks start day and night until January.
We want the government to choose selected dates e.g. Diwali, 4th of July, New year's Eve, etc. To approve as recognised for fireworks and prohibit fireworks out of these dates.

We think we need to stop this continuous fireworks practice for our animal wellbeing.
My dog is desperate and traumatised. She refuse to walk after 5 pm, she doesn't eat, and she hides everywhere she can to feel protected.
Besides domestic pets, the country has a wide variety of wild animals: birds, foxes, squirrels just to name a few, that every year are exposed to this unnatural practice, causing distress and in worst cases death.
