The standard of living of citizens is rising, and pet dogs are gradually entering thousands of households. However, such problems as undocumented dogs, big dogs bite and dogs drown in public places. Although Shenzhen had implemented the Shenzhen Dogs Regulation on 1 July 2006, there were obstacles to front-end sales and intermediate enforcement to back-end accommodation. In recent days, journalists have visited a street of pets from behind the South Hills, the Rohwan Crossings Market, and have found that there is only a chain of front-end dogs, that there are frequent “week dogs”, that there are legal gaps in the management of the pet market and that there is a serious private disorder of reproduction. Dogs are sold only for registration, compulsory immunization, etc., which cannot be carried out generally because of the confusion at the source, and undocumented dogs are still very common and have a direct impact on subsequent management.
There's a serious problem with pet dogs.
A few days ago, journalists came to a pet shop at the Rohwon Crossings Market to ask whether a Labrador dog had a blood certificate. The owner of the shop replied that all the dogs sold here were produced from his own home or from his friends. So, did the dog have a vaccine? The owner said the dog's got a vaccination shot. “Does she have a quarantine certificate?” The owner said no, and all her dogs here were shot themselves.
Journalists have visited various pet shops in the city to learn that most pet shops are only privately produced, and that breeding disorders result in the absence of effective control over the origin, variety, health, etc. of dogs, which can easily be bought or forbidden.
According to Mr. Zhang, who had been in the pet farming industry for decades, the “week dog” was abundant in the market, mostly because of the low threshold for pet dog breeding. Mr. Zhang told journalists that in order to open a pet breeding site in Hong Kong, it was necessary to apply to the Fish and Agriculture Care Agency for a license plate, and that each dog was required to provide a health certificate, a vaccine record, and DNA of his relatives in order to enter the market.
In interviews with journalists, it was found that in Shenzhen, in addition to pet shops in the pet market, some pet hospitals, and even private businesses, were responsible for the disorderly reproduction of dogs. On the other hand, in the context of pet trading, Mr. Zhang stated that it was largely unsupervised and that it was only easy for citizens to obtain dogs, which made dog management messy from the source.
The journalists learned from their enquiries that the regulations governing dogs in the city of Beijing clearly state that the business administration is responsible for supervising the operation of dogs. At the same time, the Beijing City Register of Dog Operations regulates canine sales, rearing, canine exhibitions, shops for dogs and hospitals.
As early as 2013, the eastern district of Beijing has gradually carried out inspections of the dog trading market, the pet hospital and the pet stores in the district in accordance with the regulations of the Beijing Bureau of Commerce and Industry for dog management, urging them to improve their master accounts and to strengthen the detection of unlicensed, ultra-scale dog operations, to strengthen the management of canine operations and to increase the awareness of dog-related units. In 2016, the Beijing Chamber of Commerce and Industry's Chao-yang Branch conducted joint law enforcement activities with the public security, agricultural and municipal authorities of the district, to check the situation of the canine-breeding enterprises and dogs in the district, and to inform and educate the operators concerned.
Dog management requires management at the source.
At present, there are very few laws and regulations, industry standards, etc. relating to the breeding, sale and sale of dogs. For their part, industry has indicated that at present we do not have the same laws and regulations against dogs as developed countries, and that the lack of rigorous scrutiny has allowed these businesses to exploit their space and give the impression that dogs in dogs can “pay for”.
According to a journalist survey, the uncivilized behaviour of dogs is difficult to regulate and is deeply linked to the lack of governance of dogs and the lack of clear enforcement powers over many heads. The business sector, which is responsible for the management of transactions, is unable to regulate dog transactions, the animal health surveillance agency, which is responsible for the prevention of disease, does not have day-to-day supervision and enforcement capacity, the street offices and community neighbourhood committees are responsible for the day-to-day promotion of civilized dogs, and canine defecation is managed by city-run law enforcement services, which generally deal only with dog injuries.
Uncivilized dog behaviour and the frequency of dog disputes highlight a range of issues. Some of these laws retain gaps and the spontaneous and disorderly nature of the pet market is difficult to regulate; some policies are poorly implemented and are difficult to achieve.
A community workstation worker told journalists that under the existing Shenzhen Dogs Regulations, dogs were required to be registered, but that in practice they were difficult to implement, and that the bottom figures were difficult to ascertain, and that most dogs were “black houses” and that compulsory immunization was far from possible. Social workers, in their daily visits to their homes, promote knowledge of civilized dogs, but do not have sufficient binding force on uncivilized dogs, and problems can only be exhortation and no sanction. " We hope not only that the dog trade will be regulated from the source, but also that a civilized dog-to-dog-to-dog-to-peer-to-public-to-the-public-all will soon emerge.” The social worker said.
