Dog stealing is becoming an increasingly common occurrence and under current law, pet dogs are treated as another property item such as a TV, bike, or bag.

I know the loss of a pet is like losing a member of the family.

I'm calling for dog stealing to be made a separate offence to deter crooks and give police stronger laws to prosecute those caught stealing family dogs.

Add your name to my petition and show your support for stronger laws to deter dog stealing in Western Australia.

Puppies and dogs are more than a piece of property. They can’t be treated the same as a stolen TV or a stolen piece of jewellery.
