Current Bills under discussion in UK Parliament
Animal Welfare (Sentencing) Bill.
The current law states that any human found guilty of animal cruelty can face up to six months in prison.
The Government is reviewing the proposal to change it so that humans found guilty will face up to five years in prison.
The second reading was heard in the House of Commons on the 23rd October 2020.
Barking is always a strange subject with humans.
They expect us to be totally silent, yet they bark to other humans all of the time. They call their barks speaking, but it is the same thing.

Face coverings for humans in England
Repawter: Tigger
From the 24th of July it became compulsory to wear masks or face coverings at certain times when out and about in England. Humans need to check what laws are applicable in their country.
Training - Possession with Toys
Although I am covering my possession with toys in this article, sometimes resolving toy possession can help with possession with other things..
What is toy possession? Toy possession is an extreme compulsion to grab and hold a toy or other object that can get that intense that you become aggressive due to your focus on the toy or object.

Compost Bin.
Some gardens have a compost heap or compost bin.
Why have a compost bin?
This is a great way to let garden waste, and some uncooked kitchen waste, rot down and provide new compost to use in the garden.

Hedges, Fences and walls.
Most gardens have either a hedge, fence or a wall surrounding it.
Depending on who owns the hedge, there are several options to secure the area.
The first problem is to establish who owns the hedges, fences or walls surrounding your garden.
It is good to regularly check the perimeter of gardens for damage or entry/exit points that have started appearing..
Hedges are a bit harder to secure as they are a growing plant and will have natural holes and gaps everywhere.
