If you know of any potentially useful contacts please tell us! Sympathetic vets? Journalists? Lawyers? Other registered charities affected? Other associations? Something else?
If you think your vet would be prepared to write us a letter of support, this would be a huge help! We recommend calling them first to ask if they would be willing, m then following up with an email. Here is a cover note for you, to ask your vet, and here is a draft letter for the vets to send to you – this is easiest, and then you can send it to us.
Please look for your most heart-melting photos of your rescued SOFA dog – Beautiful faces and pictures of your docked dog with other Spinoni whose tails are entire are especially welcome, but all are useful!
Prepare a little about your own story to add to your letter when we are ready to start. It is especially useful if you can emphasis that we are a responsible charity who have been supporting and diligent.We’ll be asking supporters to contact their MPs, sign petitions, and share stories — but we need to coordinate our messaging very carefully. It is a complex issue and we need to understand exactly who to contact and when. We are lucky to have a very experienced advisor who we thank profoundly.
