Admin please can you share this important information with all pet owners. Please read, sign and share everyone. Thank you. UPDATE HARVEYS LAW NEEDS HELP. Harveys Law. We have over 100k but still need more to cover any duplicate signatures. The Highways Agency is currently phasing out a procedure that identifies dogs found killed on the road and informs their owners, the police and dog wardens. By July 2015, this will no longer be a requirement. This is despite the fact that in April 2016 compulsory microchipping comes into force, making most dogs instantly identifiable by scanning. The charity behind the e-petition, Harvey’s Army, was founded by Nina Blackburn after the dog belonging to her good friends, Shaun Robertson and Jude Devine, was killed on the motorway the day he ran away. But despite wearing a tag and being microchipped, when his body was recovered by the Highways Agency, his owners weren’t informed. This meant they searched tirelessly for their two-year-old miniature poodle for three months before eventually finding out what had happened. The Highways Agency are phasing out compulsory scanning of deceased pets from July 2015 “Considering the Government’s implementation of compulsory microchipping in 2016 to tackle the problem of stolen and stray pets, the fact that they have removed their own procedure to reunite owners, even if it’s bad news, is appalling.” To sign the petition for Harvey’s Law, please visit: epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/62490, or see facebook/pagesHarveys Law.
