The UK has stopped allowing the importation of dogs, cats and ferret's from 4 countries. This is allegedly because there has been an increase in people falsifying paperwork and non compliance recently. 

Why punish all the healthy and ready to travel animals. Many rescue/adoption charities do everything above board and correctly ensuring the documentation and vaccinations are up to date before travel.

My partner and I have a dog that was due to arrive on the 31st May, he has had all his checks, vaccinations and correct paperwork. He is lucky as he has a shelter we know will care for him, thousands don't. Its putting an incredible amount of stress and financial difficulties on the charities as well as disruption and heartbreak for the families receiving them. 

This appears to be a snap decision and healthy well animals will suffer the worst fates maybe. Why punish everyone. Sign this petition to ask the government to reconsider its decision to allow people who do it correctly to continue to do so, give these animals a chance at a happy home.
