The new animal welfare law is already fully underway. The year is ending and so are those first months of turning a blind eye in which the very long list of you will not carry, you will not walk, you will not leave, you will not tie, you will not buy, you will not sell and you will not breed that would be fine, above all If you have a dog, learn it by heart. For those who have one and more for those who have been encouraged to put two, three, four or the five that Milei has at home (those who care for six or more assume the obligation to register their home as a zoological nucleus), here is a summary Of the no’s that it wouldn’t hurt to sign up very close to the shopping list.
Now it’s very serious. You risk inhumane fines. For the fattest one (600,000 in case of a very dirty mess) you would need one and a half tenths of the number awarded yesterday in the Christmas lottery or three of the Catalan lottery, La Grossa, which is drawn next Sunday.
The no’s: You won’t take your dog in the car, unless (and I’m not kidding) you tie him up in the back seats, on the floor or in the trunk!
You will not walk your dog loose on the street no matter how small, harmless and friendly he is.
You will not release your dog from the leash in any park, no matter how much you have done so far, and you will only do it in pipicanes and beaches (after scanning: at least on Barcelona beaches there is only access for those with a chip) where they is specifically allowed.
You will not tie your dog to the doors of the pharmacy, supermarket or bakery. But you won’t be able to leave it on the terrace, on the balcony or on the roof while you go off not so calmly (there is always that shadow of guilt) to take care of your daily things or purchases.
You will not buy or sell animals online. You will only adopt and where the law tells you. It will sterilize it. And you will pick up their poop. You will water their pee. You will provide it with third-party liability insurance (between 25 and 50 euros per year, not that much). And if yours is a ppp (potentially dangerous dog) you will put his muzzle on him, you will acquire his bad dog card.
You don’t have a dog? Don’t even think about giving it away or giving it away. Listen to me. Buy a Furby.
