Dear Readers,

As a pet owner, or you know somebody who is, regardless, please consider signing this petition to, "keep rabies out of the UK" by forbidding any change to OUR laws, and not succumb to the EU's stupidity.


RABIES ALERT-ALL UK PET DOGS & CATS ARE AT RISK FROM RABIES AS EUROPE INSIST WE LOSE OUR UNIQUE STATUS-NO RABIES FOR 100 YEARS.

Please go to the Government Petitions site and and if you agree, please sign. The last thing we want is Rabies !!!

Our government is being forced by the EU to abandon procedures that keep our island rabies free. Europe insist that, from January 2012, pets can enter the UK from 26 EU Member states just 21 days after vaccination. The incubation period is approx. 35 days. 9 of these countries are classified as HIGH RISK. THE CHANGES WILL AFFECT US ALL AND OUR PETS - NOT JUST PETS COMING FROM ABROAD. Change is good - this is madness. Why are so few aware that this is happening? We are a group comprising of worried Vets, Professors, Doctors, Rescue & Quarantine kennels, animal lovers & owners who are hoping to lessen the impact. Our government has twice fought, and won the right to “opt out” of the new regulations. Why has it stopped fighting? We call on our government to rekindle the fight so that all concerned parties may be consulted, all options explored and the public made fully aware of how any changes will affect them. KEEP RABIES OUT OF THE UK
