Here's what I got back - who is the best person to call this guy please... I don't know enough about the subject!! Help!!

Thanks for the note about puppy farms. Steve Anderson has passed it to me as ITV News reporter. I have quite a background in this subject, having spent five weeks undercover filming for "Thats Life" (BBC) in the early 90s!

Will you give me a call when you get a moment so we can discuss it.

Tel:

Chris Choi

oh wow! well done! :) sorry don't know much about it myself but im sure someone in the know will be along in a min- they always do! :p
Liz

Yep, well, its not what you know.... ;) Hopefully it will do some good.

Try emailing:

assemblycampaign@allcreaturesgreatandsmall.org.uk

who are doing a lot in Wales at the moment.

Have forwarded it to them - thanks

There are several people interested in puppy farming, if you e-mail adogslife@ntlworld.com I will give you my phone number. Interesting you should be in the midlands - quite a lot going on there, I can probably put you in touch with other concerned people.

Pat and Mayhem - perhaps the best thing to do is to get in contact with the woman who's organising the campaign, I don't know her but Frankie B is in contact with her and she's obviously motivated. She will need as any contacts with details and information as possible I'd have thought and personally think that if as many of us get together as possible and pool out information and different talents the better, you can break a stick but its a lot harded to break a tree.

Hi, I have to say that I don't know a huge amount about it, only what I have read here and on another site and was, frankly, appalled. I have some contacts in the media, specifically ITV and some other luvvies... so I can get to people on the back of other people recommending me :) Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't!! ;)

Hi, I can if you wish as I have been involved in this issue for the past 10 years, if you look at the following covering many aspects, I think you will undersand where I am comming from. http://mysite.freeserve.com/puppy_alert/index.htm there are also links to issues on puppy farming - pet shops - dealers - welsh national assembly-grants and links to other sites involved in campaigning against puppy farming and the fur trade connection dogs in china etc. email me if you wish, pleased to help.

I was just about to say Pat..

But you are here Pat. :-)

Pam

Thanks Pat - I have included your link on my email back to him, would be great if you could give him a call. Have also asked Viv of All Creatures Great and Small to call him too - he won't mind, and far better for him to get a couple of passionate responses!! Will email you with the number

Well done you! Brilliant

Well done Chloe, hopefully this will get something at least started, maybe get people to sit up and take notice of what's happening.

OK - both Pat and Viv of ACGAS should be calling Chris today. Will keep you posted :)

I am glad someone has got contacts with ITV However with reference to the proposed petition organised by 'All Creatures Great and Small' I have emailed them amd had the mail returned I have tried to download the petition and failed.I want to be invilved in this issue but I cannot get through to AGC&S. Can some one advise. Youcan email me privately if you wish at levirene@tiscali.co.uk.Thanks

Its probably crashed - keep trying :)

Petition is back up on line!

Great news - the Dog World paper has it on the front page about Welsh puppy Farmers proposals condemned and continued inside the paper.

Hello Chloe, before we release information on this subject would you please confirm that this it is for an independent programme and not one commissioned by NCDL that is pending

I don't know - I just got hold of the right person at ITV... what they choose to do with it now is up to them...but as far as I am concerned it will be for an entirely independent programme. You will need to speak to Pat who is going to call Chris - I believe Viv from ACGAS has spoken to him and passed him onto someone with a lot of experience of puppy farms...from there, I'm out of it I'm afraid.. :)

Thank you Chloe, Chris contacted me yesterday via Viv.

Excellent - will you keep me posted... only I would like to give him a push too if he looks like wavering.... you can email me [email chloe@iscario.com]here[/email] if it helps :)

I have the address of a confirmed puppy farmer in west yorkshire. I was appalled to hear she was breeding a bitch with her father!

It would be helpful if you could please email me privately with the details, thank -you.
