NSW State Election - Australia
The NSW State Election was yesterday and although this post is a day late, I consider it valuable to post as a record and reminder to all purebred dog owners and breeders.
Think long and hard about who you give your vote to.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION relating to the future of our Purebred Dogs, our freedom of choice and our sports of exhibiting & trialling our dogs. Voting Liberal/National in both the Lower (Legislative Assembly) and Upper (Legislative Council) Houses is a golden opportunity to secure the future of all purebred dogs and our freedom of choice as breeders. The NSW Liberal/National Coalition have formally undertaken (in writing) to:
(a) “remain supportive of tail docking provided it is done in a responsible and safe manner and would legislate to support this”;
(b) “not support the inclusion of the prohibition of banding”. They are also strongly against Breed Specific Legislation.
Be reminded, BSL in some European countries already involves proposals to ban the breeding of dogs which animal welfare extremists decide are TOO BIG, TOO WRINKLEY, HAVE EARS TOO LONG OR LEGS TOO SHORT OR A PUG-LIKE FACE, etc, etc.
Whoever you vote for, obviously, is a matter for you, however, please keep in mind that a vote for the Labour Party with the Greens as their Preference (& vice versa), will ultimately mean an end not only to any hope of shortening the tails of historically docked breeds, but ultimately, an end to our purebred dogs. Should Labour be successful and should the “Greens” gain just one more to give them the balance of power in the Upper House, there is little doubt that Breed Specific Legislation will be introduced as quickly as the ban on tail docking was and with PETA now established in Australia, the support for the prohibition of exhibiting/breeding our purebred dogs will be far too great for any one of us to fight no matter how united. Please consider your vote carefully and bear in mind that a win for the Liberal/Nationals, would mean the continued existence of our purebred dogs, the continued exhibition of our purebred dogs and OUR freedom of choice regarding what we, as breeders do with the tails, size, shape, etc. If you have any doubt at all, about the ridiculous extent to which animal extremists/libbers will go, PLEASE go to http://www.smh.com.au/news/environment/kill-him-you-must-be-knuts/2007/03/21/1174153106086.html (OR: http://snipurl.com/tpmv - they want a Bear Cub killed, rather than be raised by humans !!!!!
