Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JN6ECW - A new criminal offence to tackle dognapping and crack down on the heart-breaking issue of pet theft has moved a step closer.
Under government plans, people who steal a canine companion could face up to five years in jail if convicted of dog abduction.
The offence is being added to the Kept Animals Bill, which is currently making its way through the Commons, after a recommendation by the government's pet theft taskforce in September.
The taskforce, launched in May, looked into a reported rise in pet thefts during the pandemic. More than 2,000 such incidents were reported to the police in 2020.
Dognapping remains the biggest issue, with around seven in 10 incidents of pet theft recorded by police involving dogs, according to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra).
The move has been welcomed by leaders from animal rights organisations.
Chief veterinary officer Dr Christine Middlemiss said it is an important step forward with dogs being treated as sentient beings rather than merely property.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2T10DPN - This friendly small bulldog is photographed at close range in Warrington town centre, standing on modern paving and looking directly towards the camera with its tongue out and a relaxed, happy expression. The black, white and tan coat, broad head, short legs, wrinkled face and sturdy body shape give the picture strong appeal for stock uses around pet ownership, dog walking, urban pets, companion animals, responsible ownership and everyday life in a northern English market town. The turquoise and black Julius-K9 style harness is clearly visible, adding useful search value for themes around dog accessories, secure walking equipment, canine control, training, safety and well cared for pets. The low viewpoint makes the dog feel characterful and engaging, with the paving background keeping attention on the animal.
Warrington sits between Manchester and Liverpool and its town centre remains the borough's main focus for shopping, entertainment, leisure, restaurants, the museum and the library, so this image can work as a warm local lifestyle photograph as well as a dog portrait. It shows the ordinary human side of a busy urban centre, where shoppers, residents and visitors bring pets through pedestrian areas and retail streets. The image may suit editorial features about dog-friendly towns, high street footfall, town centre regeneration, local public spaces, pet products, responsible dog walking, animal companionship, small bulldog breeds, urban leisure, family life and the growing role of pets in everyday British culture. The visible harness, lead attachment and friendly pose also make it useful for illustrating practical pet care, safe walking, socialised dogs in public and the popularity of branded canine harnesses. The cropped composition, direct eye contact and cheerful expression give the photograph commercial charm for articles, blogs and local news pieces needing an approachable dog image linked to Warrington, Cheshire and North West England.
