Sad and disgusting

Firstly your link doesn't work, and aren't all dogs in France "chipped" with owners address etc?

All you have to do is copy and paste the web address - this link should be OK.

Dogs and cats in France are indeed supposed to have tattoos or microchips to enable them to be traced, but pet owners who are irresponsible enough to dump animals are hardly likely to comply with that requirement. The number of animals Mrs Will has rescued in France that carried no marking is testament to that.

Our neighbour dumped his dog miles from home. And then as it happened his wife saw the dog on the way home from work, stopped and picked it up and brought it back. If memory serves it was in summer and they were going away....... guess who used to go and feed it and let it out whilst they were away!

 

Ofcourse he hadn't been tatooed or chipped or neutered.

 

Are all dogs and cats that leave refuges neutered?
