I'm wondering if anyone knows where I can find what the laws are in Canada regarding selling puppies.<br />
I saw an ad online from a "breeder" trying to sell their puppies at 4.5 weeks old (not deposits either- they are saying the puppies are ready to go to their new homes at 4.5 weeks old). I need to know if that's even legal. I know its unethical.<br />
They are based in Manitoba, but I'm having a hard time googling any information on it. If anything I want to inform them if they are doing some illegal or inform someone who WILL do something about it. <br />
I never usually bother with stuff like this, but I am all too aware of the damage these people would be doing to these puppies and their potential owners.<br />
I just need can't believe someone would try to sell puppies at such a tender age. To me it should be 8 weeks *minimum*.<br />
Any information you guys could offer would be greatly appreciated.<br />
Thanks NEKAI for the suggestion. I'm emailing the SPCA nearest to these peoples location. Hopefully they will at least look into it.<br />
Ièll try that link too. I just finished emailing the Shelter Manager nearest to these people. I had no clue who to email there was so different people listed. So hopefully she will read my email and know what to do. I gave her a link to the so called breeders ad and their website. <br />
I'll email the breeders to and tell them its illegal. Your right, it might at least stall them.<br />
I live in Alberta, and I have no clue what the laws are here either. I just remember reading a while back that the USA had laws in some places stating puppies had to be at least 6 weeks old. <br />
I'm hoping they have something like that in Manitoba too.<br />
I emailed -no puppy mills Canada- hopefully one of them will be able to help. There isn't anything else I can do now. I just really really hope something gets done about this.<br />
