Should we see a difference yet?

Unless more complaints are made then they can't keep an eye on it - that is classed as harrassment.

It will be down to the general public to keep an eye and report should the situation deteriorate again.
 
Really? How do they check up on whats happening then? surely they need to be able to follow up on cases to make sure the advice has been taken.

It depends on the severity of the situation, the attitude of the owner, and what advice has been given.

For instance, if the welfare agency have been around in response to a complaint that the pups are outside, but are in fact inside when they get there, then it is very difficult for the agency to go back around without being classed as harrassing - because the fact that the pups were in at time of visit means that no particular offence is being committed at time of visit. If however, more complaints are then made saying the pups have been chucked back outside -they have every means of going back around again. If not - then there really isn't any reason in the eyes of the law that they should be going back around.

If the owner has been given a notice to make improvements on certain issues, then yes, there will be a time limit and the officer will attend on or near after that date to assess the conditions again. If no improvements have been made then either action will be taken, or an extention on the time limit may be given depending on the circumstances (this is rare). If the necessary improvements have been made then the officer has no means to be going back around again unless further complaints are made. It would be classed as harrassment if they continued to knock on the door if no further complaints were made and the advice had been taken on last visit.

Not sure if I have put that clearly enough, I have conjunctivitis so can't see very clearly!! :mad:
 
Having read the entire thread (my eyes are SO tired!)


My dog (age 5) and shes a spaniel x collie, last night slept IN MY BED....under!! the duvet!! she was SHIVERING inside, in her bed it was THAT cold....................

therefore i would never put any dog of mine with pups outside!!!!!

I wouldnt even put my house dog in that cage alone.....even in the day.....

Its just cruel (unless were taking insulated KENNELL) or dog shed etc NOT BARS




Personally, i hope you get the dogs taken off you OP and given to someone who gives a **** and knows what they are doing....



to leave a dog to whelp checking on them twice is stupid and irresponsible.... good breeders live with the pups for weeks after (literally)....


hope you have been reported and its not just any more lies/truth bending.







etc, to everyone else except OP - sorry about caps locks. #angry
 
It's a shame the OP hasn't been back on to clarify things. I have to say I actually think the pics of the pups show them as being pretty healthy looking. They will be about 3 weeks old now won't they?

Not sure it necessarily needed to go as far as welfare organisations being involved to be honest as they do/did not look to be suffering but no, keeping them outside was not ideal given the weather we've been having.

Who would you have suggested would have made OP listen then? She certainly wasn't interested in any of the advice given by people on here?

The pups looked great - but were not being kept in a suitable or safe environment. You can't always measure suffering by a couple of photos - but those with the experience know that the puppies may well not have survived if they'd continued to live outside - that is potential suffering, which all on this thread were keen to avoid.

OP won't be back on this thread, I'm sure. She's been embarrassed and held to account. She stated previously that she was keen to learn - but that appears not to have been true, until of course the welfare authorities stepped in.......
