Dogs suffering due to fashion victim owners

Posted By: Neha | Apr 25 2007

Lately people have owned pets not for their own interest but for the fashions sake. But when the fashion of certain pet goes out they just dump them somewhere on the streets. Thus the fashion victim pet owners are responsible for the increase in the number of abandoned dogs. And that's what Merseyside has been witnessing too.

RSPCA statistics, released yesterday showed that the number of unwanted pets have increased by more than 40% from last year. People have been abandoning their bull terriers like garbage. To own Staffordshire bull terrier was the latest trend in Liverpool from sometime. But now, they have lost their charm and dogs are suffering due to their fashion victim owners. A campaign named ECHO's Biteback has demanded microchips to be placed in all the dogs, so that, if abandoned their owners can be traced back.
