Dog Breeding Law In Finland

[Booldawg]

Just read a post on FB - one of those re-posted meme type things.

It stated that there's a law in Finland that disallowed people from buying a puppy until all the rescue shelters were empty.

Good idea in theory but wouldn't it be difficult to implement from a logistical point of view?

So nobody can buy a specific breed for breeding? cant really believe that to be honest!

[Booldawg]

I did raise an eyebrow Ratter!

Can you post a link to the FB post?

I really think that it is unlikely to be true. But you never know.

I am off out to work very soon but if nobody has found the answer before I get back this evening then I will have a look.

Hope this works!

Are we calling BS on this one!? I think so....

So if your bítch has a litter you have to give them all to the rescue centre ? Well, washes your hands of having to do right by them.

OG Its NOT TRUE

Considering that bestiality is legal in Finland i'd have very surprised if this was true.

That's what they want you to think ;-)
