I met the Minister to discuss proposed changes to fireworks regulations, including reducing noise levels. Fireworks can cause serious distress to people & animals. I’m urging everyone affected to respond to the consultation by 7 Oct & make their voices heard. Form here: buff.ly/tfxZz0Z

I met with Blue Cross, which helps sick, injured and homeless pets, yesterday. As the owner of a rescue dog – Bonnie – I know how important it is that dogs are treated properly, and that's why I'm working hard in particular to support their campaigns to look after greyhounds. #LisaSmartMP

Government consultation now open! Fireworks should be used sparingly and during major events, not throughout the year and at all times of the night. (1/3)

Great to see this fireworks consultation being published today - we look forward to responding. We know how distressing and dangerous, even fatal, fireworks can be for many pets.

I met with the team at Blue Cross to discuss responsible dog ownership in Henley and Thame. They offer a veterinary care fund and pet food banks to support people struggling with the cost of living so they can continue caring for their animals. 🐩

I was proud to open the debate for the Scottish Greens in my colleagues Mark Ruskell's Bill on ending greyhound racing in Scotland for good. The only way to protect these dogs is to end the practice entirely.
