PLEASE SUPPORT ANIMAL ABUSE REGISTRY LAW IN SLOVENIA

European Commissioner for Health and Consumer Policy - PLEASE SUPPORT ANIMAL ABUSE REGISTRY LAW IN SLOVENIA.

Without this law, convicted animal abusers can obtain animals through legitimate channels and continue to abuse them. An Animal Abuse Registry Law would post the name, address, and photo of anyone convicted of animal abuse to an online registry.

Pet sellers, shelters and animal breeders would have to check the registry before allowing anyone to have an animal. It would be a crime to turn an animal over to anyone on the registry. This registry would help identify people with a history of animal abuse, as well as serve as an early warning for future crimes, since people guilty of violent crimes often have a history of animal abuse.

An online registry of animal abusers would significantly benefit communities and law enforcement. Violence is more prevalent in our society and we need to take a stand to stop it from continuing. It has been shown that people who abuse animals are likely to repeat their actions. Any form of abuse should not be tolerated.

European Commissioner for Health and Consumer Policy -Tell VURS (Veterinary Administration of the Republic of Slovenia ) and The Secretariat-General of the Government RS, it is time for an on line animal abuse registry in Slovenia.

Please be the voice for these innocent victims and our future.

For the sake of the animals and those who care about their protection, please sign this petition!

Thank you for your time.
