Ateb
Atebwyd gan Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales, and Trefnydd
Animals should be protected from pain, injury and distress. This is why we introduced the Animal Welfare (Electronic Collars) (Wales) Regulations 2010 to prevent the use of electronic training/impulse collars on dogs and cats. The regulations ban the use of any collar that is capable of administering an electric shock to a dog or cat and was based on scientific evidence and a full consultation.
