The new Italian Lay
January 16 th 2007:
Published the new ordinance of the Italian Government again the
aggression of dogs.
Starting today, 16 January is forbidden to cut the tail and the
ears of the dogs, to modify its aspect or for other non curative
purposes.
It ends therefore, the custom to cut the ears to his own dog, a
habit besides already a little used by the shepherds and
primarily used by some breeders that they didn't certainly use
their own dogs against the wolves but that they did only it to
give an aesthetical factor.
Read the comment of Marco
Petrella (it is only in Italian language) and the complete
text of the law. |
