So it looks as if the go to argument AGAINST Brexit will be the ability to take your pet puppy with you when traveling with the EU?

Is THIS seriously the best argument the opposition can come up with ?

I can totally see the AD campaign “Vote NO on Brexit! Do it for the Children! Ahhh I mean puppies”. —— A wise man once said,... BE extra careful whenever the argument used FOR or AGAINST something leads off with one the following TWO themes.

1. It’s to PREVENT terrorism !!! OR 2. It’s for the CHILDREN —. In this case substitute PUPPIES

These 2 themes intend to invoke an emotional response at the expense of common sense arguments FOR or AGAINST some deliberate action.

They’re really scraping for excuses to oppose Brexit here.

I am a dog owner. F the pets. This is Freedom we are talking about. A little inconvenience over being free of the shackles of the stinking EU.

Brits cannot figure out how to get a puppy on a plane without the benevolent guidance of their masters in Brussels?

My how the mighty British Empire has fallen...

England is pretty nice and has tons of history that there would be no need to go to the EU.

Yeah...No. I get a family member to watch my pets. I am constantly watching my kids pets when they go on vacation.

In a pinch I have put my dog in a kennel. I found the best one in the area.

free pet travel is under threat

GOOD

I didn’t pay to travel with cattle.

Wish we would make it harder for flying in the US...instead we are approving ponies to fly....

Puppies and kittens have proven to be one of the most effective advertisement props in marketing.

There seem to be many,many people who believe that Brexit will be a catastrophe of unimaginable destruction. I can't for the life of me understand why the nations of Western and Central Europe can't have a relationship with one another like the relationship that exists between the US and Canada.

A 4,000 mile long border without a single soldier stationed on either side.A strong,vibrant,trading relationship with goods and services flowing freely in both directions.Two entirely sovereign countries where,although citizens travel freely and easily in both directions,nobody has a "right" to even *enter* the other country,let alone live and work there.

I believe that the US and Canada are the very best example that's ever existed in human civilization of friendly neighbors.

This has got to be the STUPIDEST article I've read all year.

Trying to create an emotional response using the INSANE, sentimental American pet culture as an argument against Brexit?

LMFAO.

Britain has, or at least did have, a strict quarantine law for pets entering the country to prevent rabies—Britain being an island and all. Hawaii has the same policy—something like a couple of months. Has that changed?

It looks like the Queen is in favor of Brexit because she just announced that she agreed with Boris Johnson's request and is shutting down the September session of Parliament.

The 'Remains' are having a hissy fit.
