The thing is those who have those status dogs would pay it without blinking an eye(maybe out of tax payers pockets).......but what about someone like my 87 year old mother who has a tiny little 15 year old chihuahua(for company and to spoil)...he is never out with a lead, he is usually exercised in the confines of my mum's substantial backyard.......and poses no risk to anyone.
£100 is a lot of money to her....but I know that she would do without stuff so that she could pay it.
As Eric says, it isn't the fault of the dogs, but the fault of irresponsible owners.......and yes, caring for an animal is like parenting. It takes the same kind of commitment,patience and time....some folks have precious little of any of those attributes.
And another question....what is the point of having something that is not policed?
