Make Pet Theft A Specific Crime In Uk Law

[AuntPollyGrey]

Two children were accosted in our village yesterday while walking their dog. They had been following the children asking what kind of dog they had.Luckily one child escaped with the dog and the two men jumped back in their car and sped off. Please if you have not already done so can you sign the following Petion. To lose a dog like this must be heart-breaking and its happening on a daily basis. Thank you.

Signed. No dog, but cats. I'd be after anyone who took them.

Dog thieving b****ds are all over right now.

I've already signed it.

I am behind this petition 100%. The scumbags only see the £££ value of the dog.

Some people say that a dog or cat is 'like' a member of the family. That is not the case. They 'are' a family member.

As I sit here looking at my 2 boys - I can’t imagine the thought of them being stolen

[Peter Pedant]

Thanks for everyone who has taken the time to sign this petition and to share. I, myself, was utterly astounded that stealing a family pet is not a specific criminal offence in UK Law! Stealing what is essentially a member of your family is NOT the same as stealing your mobile phone! Please get the link onto your social media pages and lets try and push this for this -only 7000 more signatures required before this can be put to Parliament. Thanks!
