German dog owners are barking mad about a planned new law that would force them to take their pooches on at least two walks a day.

The country’s Agriculture Minister, Julia Kloeckner, announced this week she will introduce legislation requiring that man’s best friend get at least two 30-minute walks daily, according to the BBC.

“Pets are not cuddly toys — their needs have to be considered,” said Kloeckner, adding that it’s important for dogs to get exercise and not be left alone for too long.

What will they think of next? Maybe folks can give them some ideas for new laws. Here are a few: - How long you can take a shower and how many showers/day - How many many hours you can be on the internet per day - How many times you need to wipe your butt

Is this to give the peaceful immigrants more opportunities to attack and murder them?

Lol! I doubt the Gestapo could have even figured out a way to enforce this one, what are they going to do. Require GPS trackers on every dog to monitor their daily movements? Create a “walkie” patrol to stand outside every dog owners house and make sure they are doing their mandatory two walks a day?

“Pets are not cuddly toys — their needs have to be considered...”

However, keep that abortion rate at 100,893 each year, Germany!

Meanwhile on the other side of the world:
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has reportedly ordered citizens to give up their pet dogs so that the canines can be converted into meat for restaurants

I hate to say this because I am one..... but I’m not surprised a woman came up with this.

Orwell wrote about “Big Brother”......well we now have “Big Sister.”

The virus has given these petty dictators incentive to tell their citizens what to do outside of crime. In fact they are creating new crimes.

Meanwhile in Australia...

Australia: Police are preparing to launch their aerial arsenal as part of a crackdown on COVID rule breakers. High powered drones will be used to find people not wearing masks, and cars too far from home.

My 2 would not do it, they want a few minutes in backyard. More to chase moles and squirrels. Weight is kept down via food measuring.

Then they must not have citizen’s who need wheelchairs either.
