Animals should be able to turn around and take at least a few steps, and have somewhere to hid, even if its under some tissue, and access to water. Basic conditions as called for by AWA I belive.

But your right, the buying public vote with its cash and all the time they buy, its not going to stop.

could'nt agree more with you mate they should be in tubs were they can move and have an access to water

TBH, I would go as a seller if steps were taken to reduce temps and the sunlight from the overhead windows

Prob well worth a visit as a buyer if you are around and can make it.

the tub size , although enforcable by the organisers, is a seller issue really and applies to all shows, not just this one.

Totally agree with Tony & Nerys.

It was absolutly disgusting last year that this issue was not dealt with, none of the organisers appeared to be even slightly concerned about it when Pete raised it with them on the day

- hence why we will not be going to this one, not even just to look.

I think we were one of the few that did provide water in milk bottle lids, we always display in those Blaplast flip top lid containers, but, slapped wrists we didn't provide hides (this is noted guys).
