registration system3) that doesn't function properly. An

strengthen existing laws.

Everyone in society needs to pay attention and try to function well in their particular role. People should

be responsible for the lives of their pets and take into account their personal and financial situations.

Pet stores must also be responsible for the lives of the pets they sell and strive to ensure that

procedures are carried out fairly.
