Is this right?

[Freedom]

Definitely not right. And didn't you just get a much stronger animal rights law passed there? Contact RSPCA, describe the situation to them and ask if it is "right."

Good for you to help out this little babies!

[pitc9]

No, it's not right at ALL!!

does your local council have a dog warden you could report them to?

[honeybeezercattalina]

Thankyou very much. I will contact them later tonight.

Yes, some people should never have dogs...and certainly not have pups from them.
Even though the lurcher has attacked other dogs and such, her maternal instincts will stop her attacking her own offspring. She probably has some reason as to why she attacked the other dogs such as feeling threatened but this reason won't apply to her own pups. It's still very wrong to have them shut up in a little shed all the time though. New welfare laws will mean that this treatment is now illegal and all pets are required to be provided with all basic needs, including exercise, by law so be sure to let us know what the RSPCA say about it or anyone else for that matter.

I see.

I have NEVER seen them take any of their dogs out for the 3 (almost 4) years ive been living here. Never. They have 'important' jobs but it is no reason to ignore the animals. They are fed/water everyday, and they do have shelter. Im just concerned about the fact they dont socialise them/take them for walks.

When they ARE socialised, its only for two minutes or less. Hardly at all. Its tipping it down with rain and the jack russell is on a chain attatched to its kennell.
