We call on the UK Government to establish regulatory oversight of veterinary care. This should include written treatment plans, itemised bills, consent safeguards, and accountability for corporate-owned practices which we believe profit from distress.

Review and reform legal status of pets, and rules on animal control equipment
I ask the Government to review and reform the status of pets to recognise them in all cases as sentient family members and relatives, not chattel. Set out specific strict rules on using animal-control equipment like catch poles and strong penalties if negligence or force cause harm or death to pets.
Make all domestic animal breeding a regulated practice protecting the animals
We want all animal breeders to pay for a licence to breed animals. This licence fee would go toward the cost of regulating the industry. I want officers to be able to do random checks on breeders, and available if someone is concerned about a breeders’ practices with heavy fines for non-compliance.
Require vets to provide free lifesaving care for pets
If the pet is in desperate need of care, and the pet's life is on the line, the vets should have to give the animal free medical care, so the pet does not die.
Mandate licensed veterinary professional supervision after surgical procedures
We call on the Government to mandate supervision by a licensed veterinary professional following an animal having a surgical procedure.
Make it law that animal charities must obtain vets notes regardless of health
Make it a legal requirement that all rehoming and rescue charities obtain vets notes from previous owners when dogs are given up. This will show a full report of the animals health to ensure what the previous owner has disclosed is correct.
