Ceilidh Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 It sounds like they have another breeder in their sights. It has been suggested they have asked for breeding records for one breeder :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SparkyTansy Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 What law would they be breaching that would require breeding records? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pointees Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Just wondering if your able to post the article, or message about this. I've heard nothing about it, and am rather curios as to what is going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missymoo Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 yes, I would like to read what was posted on ozshow to please? Can someone copy and paste? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandalay Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 :p I am not a member of Ozshow , seems I was not accepted So I stick to DOL forum and I have not got a clue what is going on !! Are you telling us that the RSPCA is going another Victorian Breeder ??? For what reason this time ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WreckitWhippet Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 There aren't any further details, just that the RSPCA turned up with a warrant and were given whatever they required. I guess it will come to light soon enough, when they rock up on some poor breeders door step, with 20 people, camera in hand and start seizing dogs. Surely dogs VIC would have had the balls to give whoever it is the heads up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are You Serious Jo Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Holy crap, we need to finish our list of things to do if they turn up at your door, have to get that done. Poor bastards, who ever they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lappiemum Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 breeders registered with the VCA are easier to target than puppy farmers and back yarders - all their records are there in the one spot, nice and convienent.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely dogs VIC would have had the balls to give whoever it is the heads up. If they did give a heads up, they might be looking at charges themselves.. And if someone's been following breeding practices like playing roulette with PRA Carrier to Carrier matings and selling pups without DNA testing them then they SHOULD be charged. Not every breeder deserves our sympathy or support. I'll wait and see where the axe falls before I condemn the RSPCA for enforcing the law.

Not every breeder deserves our sympathy or support. I'll wait and see where the axe falls before I condemn the RSPCA for enforcing the law. I agree with poodlefan - If this 'breeder' has done everything right, then they have nothing to worry about. If this breeder has been acting irresponsibly then they deserve what comes. While I am NOT a supporter of the RSPCA at all, if such 'investigations/inspections' encourage unscrupulous breeders to lift their game, then I see no harm done. I also don't think that DogsVic should make this breeder aware of the goings-on. If they are found to be in breach of codes then I think DogsVic don't owe them any support. If, however, this whole investigation is in fact, unjustified, then the breeder deserves full support from DogsVic and its membership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And while the CC's refuse to get their hands dirty enforcing the Code of Conduct or to implement compulsory health testing, it will forever be left to the law and those who enforce it to clean up the mess unethical registered breeders create. Lets wait and see before we judge anyone heh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bisart Dobes Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Unfortunately the RSPCA don't act on their own with investigations like this - they simply don't have the resources. Someone from within our own ranks has supplied them with information to act on. Someone has dobbed in their competition. This is why the dog world will never beat these stupid legislations - it will always be 'win at all costs'. What a disgrace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
