Hi all,
I welcome the new laws brought in by The Liberal Party (The Strongest Domestic Animal cruelty laws/legislation in the World)
Now Daniel Andrews has announced he is going to restrict each premises to 10 Fertile Females by 2020.
I believe the hype around every person that owns dogs and breed them are puppy farmers? I live on a farm and I have 15 dogs. The reason why I have so many dogs is because I have a big family and we all have 2 dogs each. We live on a fertile 1200 acre farm in Victoria and breed working Border Collies that are welcome to come and go from our home as they please. We are a registered Domestic Animal Business and Council love our place and call it dog heaven. We don't make money, we sell for friends and family and sell any that we cannot home. We follow all guidelines and look after our dogs very well.
I think all Pedigree Dog owners/breeders/exhibitors have shot themselves in the foot! You got what you wanted…. Most of my Pedigree dog-breeder friends have 10 dogs plus…. They are retired so they have the time to dedicate to their pets.
"By 2020, the maximum number of breeding dogs in any business will be 10 dogs. This effectively puts this squalid industry out of business," Mr Andrews said.

I think you should seriously think who you should be voting for in Novembers election… I know who I will be voting for… Liberal.
Thank you and take care all.
