The Government attaches great importance to promoting and safeguarding animal welfare. The Chief Executive's 2018 Policy Address proposed amending animal welfare legislation.
As the number of dogs and cats being kept by the public has been increasing in recent years, the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department is actively promoting responsible pet ownership by organising regular dog training courses.
News.gov.hk interviewed a dog owner and one of the department's veterinary officers to learn more about the dog training course and the department's work in safeguarding animal welfare.
The story appears on news.gov.hk today (November 25) in text and video format.
