The activation of a new ley for the Protection of Animals of Company, which prohibits the killing of pets that are in the kennels, from this Friday, takes effect in the reception centre of the Community of Madrid.
More than 150 thousand animals are abandoned every year in Spain, many of them end up euthanized in a “systematic” in kennels of the municipalities.
This rule prohibits the killing of animals by the fact of being in a reception centre, thus avoiding the “double condemnation of the pet” for being a victim of abandonment and sacrifice forced, has affirmed the Environment minister, Jaime González Taboada, who explains that the law calls for the sterilization to prevent overpopulation and abandonment.
in Addition, it is vetoed the abuse, by action or omission. It is prohibited to display animals in events intended for leisure or fun; or using them in begging, or traveling.
Neither going to be given as a reward or raffle, or to use them in exhibitions or photo shoots for advertising purposes without authorisation, or leave them in vehicles without ventilation. Also he will veto the trigger or hit animals with firearms or compressed air, in exceptional cases,
just in 2016 there were more than 12 thousand actions to save the life of a pet and stopped to 490 people in operations against animal abuse.
breaking the new law will lead to sanctions which can go from 300 to 45 thousand euros.
The Law of Protection of Animals of company defends the “sacrifice zero” and gives a time limit of a year and a half to the pet stores to make reforms in order to continue to have dogs and cats in their premises, as until now.
