Electric Shock Training Collars For Dogs (EDM1519)

Electric Shock Training Collars For Dogs

EDM number 1519 in 2003-04, proposed by Tim Yeo on 14/07/2004.

That this House notes the continuing availability and use of remote control electric shock collars to train and control dogs; shares the view of the Kennel Club, the Dogs Trust and the RSPCA that these devices are unnecessary and cruel, with considerable potential for abuse; believes that there are alternative training methods which are more effective, as are employed by the police, prison services and armed forces; regrets that the draft Animal Welfare Bill contains no provisions to ban the sale and use of electric shock training collars; and calls on the Government to include such provisions in the Bill.

This motion has been signed by a total of 170 MPs.
