Salford City Council has just closed its consultation on new improved conditions for animal welfare and pet shops in the city, which was a response, in part, to the massive campaign by Boycott Dogs4Us and the media to expose the company's dodgy practices.
While the campaign gives the Council's proposals a cautious welcome it adds "Whilst we commend the Council's intentions to improve animal welfare for all animals, Boycott Dogs4Us does not feel the proposals are sufficient in terms of preventing the sale of puppy farm dogs in Salford".
Supporters are staging a peaceful protest in the public space between Tesco and Salford Precinct next Sunday, 30th October, between 1pm and 2pm*, followed by a further protest outside the Dogs4Us store on Agecroft Road.
"Dogs4Us has been exposed twice on national television for selling puppies from cruel puppy farms - Channel 5 News and Sky News, 2009 and more recently BBC Panorama, May 2016" the organisation states "We want to attract the attention of Salford Council, raise awareness within Salford about the consultation, about the sale of puppy farm dogs in Salford and Dogs4Us involvement in the cruel puppy farm trade."
