in the paper today.  local breeder with 26 dogs on premises that has been using some for breeding (& breeding lots) been fined £100.00 for breeding without a licence.  that is shocking, wont even pay court costs.

What area was this? 

Not much of a incentive to stop breeding

what a joke! how is £100 going to stop them from breeding so many dogs :(

Great!  I get charged £90 a year for a licence for boarding cats so £100 for breeding dogs is a joke!

the area is Angus in Scotland

And it s not the first time shes been in court also for cruelty to animals, horses, dogs etc.
She's a evil woman, and £100, thats a joke, she should be banned for life! :-(

I think I know about this from someone off another forum, does she breed Labs? 

Yes, she has bred everything!

Ahhh, the person who reported her posted last year on another forum, along with a few others I encouraged her to go to the local council and complain.  She only pm'd me recently to tell me about the poxy fine so I told her to contact the local paper, that way at least a few more potential customers might be put off.  She's also been named and shamed on a puppy farming website. 

She has bred for years, nothing will stop her, unless completely banned, she has been done for cruelty also, she puts dogs in to other families members names to register them if she does register them!
One evil woman who will never change, she has sold horses she had on loan too!!

People like that need to be put in prison, it's shocking that it's allowed to carry on. 

If anyone wants to name and shame puppy farmers btw, please do pm me the details and I'll pass them on to be put on the website that's just been set up. 

Ridiculous, it is up to a £1000 for fouling and £500 for having a dog off lead on the public road in my councils area.

this makes me sick ,its about time something was done ,what and how i dont know but im sick of poor animals suffering because of evil sick scum people just to make money.

Kenya

Will you PM me who it is as I have never heard of them :-)

She also sells pups under six weeks.

I know someone that went for a pup, they were not sure which to take and were told if you take two I will give you £100.00 off the price, so, sadly they did.
