The Government should hold a review into the numbers of animals euthanised in the UK, the reasons why, and identify a solution to protect animals from being unnecessarily euthanised.

FAQs
-
Tuk was an 16 month old rescue who was destroyed 22 December 2017.
He was not scanned prior to euthanasia and his RBU were not contacted/notified of his death. We are a small group campaigning for mandatory scanning prior to euthanasia.

Once an animal is adopted and rehomed, the rescue remains a presence in their lives offering rescue back up to the adopter for the duration of the pets life.
The rescue is available for advice and should the adopter no longer be able to care for the animal the rescue will support them and find an alternative new home.
-
Rescue organisations register their details on the original database as a secondary contact as part of the adoption contract.
In times of vulnerability the secondary contact is there to prevent the animal from being unnecessarily euthanised and to alert the veterinarian that an alternative is in place.
This also allows the rescue to remain a constant presence and support to the pet should it be abandoned or sold on without the rescue organisations knowledge.
If the adopter does not keep the information registered on the microchip up to date the secondary rescue back up information registered on the original database will enable the rescue to be contacted in all circumstances.
