Ear-cropping is illegal in England & Wales under the Animal Welfare Act; it is considered an unnecessary, painful mutilation with no welfare benefit.
Jordan Birchall-Roberts and Carl Cassius Marius Birchall, both from Wrexham, admitted failing to provide proper and necessary veterinary care and attention for a bulldog with cropped ears when they appeared in court on Tuesday.
Ear-cropping is illegal in England & Wales under the Animal Welfare Act; it is considered an unnecessary, painful mutilation with no welfare benefit.Bulldog Zena's ears were croppedShe found Zena in the living room and could see instantly that her ears had been cropped and that they looked “swollen and appeared to have been cut unevenly”.Inspector Davies – who was speaking to a lady at the property – said in a written statement: “I could see the holes where the stitches had been.
“He said he then picked the dog up from some men at a service station in Chester,” she added. “I asked if the puppy had seen a vet, he said no. I advised him that I was concerned about the puppy’s ears as they looked very swollen and painful and that I wanted to take the puppy to the vet to get them checked.
A witness statement from a veterinary surgeon said Zena would have endured suffering when these wounds were sustained and during the days following the cropping.
