Target: N. Chandrababu Naidu, Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, India
Goal: Prosecute unlicensed breeders who are inbreeding dogs illegally, causing severe genetic disorders and suffering in puppies.
In Visakhapatnam of the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh, unlicensed dog breeders are engaging in illegal inbreeding practices, mating closely related dogs to maintain specific traits. This inbreeding is causing severe genetic disorders in puppies, leading to suffering, health complications, and premature deaths. Innocent animals are being sold with hidden genetic defects, causing heartbreak for unsuspecting families.
Unethical breeders exploit regulatory loopholes, operate without licenses, and neglect animal welfare standards. They are selling puppies prematurely, using steroids to enhance appearance, and deceiving buyers through misleading online advertisements. Some customers never receive the puppies they paid for or end up with different breeds than promised, falling victim to scams or receiving low-quality, unhealthy dogs.
These practices not only harm the animals but also defraud consumers and undermine the integrity of the pet industry. Legal action is urgently needed to hold these unlicensed breeders accountable and to protect animals from suffering due to irresponsible breeding. Prosecute those allegedly responsible and enforce stricter regulations to prevent such cruelty.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Minister Dr. Seediri Appalaraju,
We are deeply concerned about reports of unlicensed dog breeders in Visakhapatnam engaging in illegal inbreeding practices. These breeders are mating closely related dogs to maintain specific traits, resulting in puppies with severe genetic disorders, health complications, and suffering.
Unlicensed breeders are exploiting regulatory loopholes, selling puppies prematurely, using steroids to artificially enhance their appearance, and deceiving buyers with misleading advertisements. Many consumers have fallen victim to scams, receiving unhealthy or different breeds than promised. Innocent animals are suffering, and families are experiencing heartbreak due to these unethical practices.
We urge you to take immediate legal action against these unlicensed breeders and enforce stricter regulations to prevent such cruelty. By prosecuting those allegedly responsible and strengthening oversight, we can protect animals from suffering and ensure the integrity of the pet industry in Andhra Pradesh.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]
