We can offer you support to help a life-chained dog that you are aware of and are actively willing to help. We will give you advice on how to approach owners and maintain an ongoing relationship with them in order to improve the conditions for the dog.
Did you know the inhumane treatment of thousands of life chained dogs in New Zealand is a clear breach of the NZ Animal Welfare Act?
The Dog Code sets out the minimum standard and recommendations relating to all aspects of the care and management of dogs in New Zealand. Life-chained dogs meet the MINIMUM standard as stated under the Dog Code, hence they legally remain life chained.
If you agree with us that life-chaining dogs is inhumane and that it should be banned in New Zealand, please sign and share our petition.
