Many of us would never consider chaining our precious dogs for hours, or worse, for days or months. But too many people don't give it a second thought, forcing their dogs to endure even extreme weather conditions without exercise or companionship.

They have limited tethering a dog to 3 hours maximum.

Great proposal!
I know some people who chained their dogs for a life, because they were 'aggressive'.. Who wouldn't be aggressive like this? Amazing.
I really support this new law.
Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for visiting and commenting.
