Please do not judge all of China because of the actions and abuses of some. This is where we need to pull together to support campaigners in paces like China; get the changes and make the difference.

Activism in 2017 | Dominic Dyer
“…activism shouldn’t become a penance – its got to be something you embrace because it’s a positive development in your life, it brings joy and happiness, excitement and innovation and change – it shouldn’t be something that has to be done because we’re all doomed and we’re all going to hell in a handcart…”
The badger cull, foxhunting, shooting, and the rise of veganism.
What direction is activism going in, and just how important was the snap general election in mid-June?
Charlie Moores discusses activism in 2017 with Dominic Dyer, chief-executive of Badger Trust and Senior Policy Advisor Born Free Foundation.
For those of you who are not familiar with Dom; you can see him doing the introduction in the following video – the Taiji Protest for the Dolphins, London.

SAV Comment-
A really great start to 2018 – helping dogs with homeless owners – full checks for their animal buddies !
In the UK stray dogs are not really a problem. Chipping is now a regulation and so dogs are usually reunited with owners within hours if they are separated.
This excellent charity has been set up to help dogs who have owners who are homeless and live on the streets. Lots of street people have animals; and this ensures that dogs etc get a review and check up if they need it. Excellent !
DOTS = Dogs On The Streets.
Dogs On The Streets (DOTS) is on the road to helping even more animals in need, thanks to a new vet van.
The acquisition means the charity’s volunteer vets, groomers, nurses and trainers will be able to reach out to even more homeless hounds in London and beyond.
Founded by Michelle Clark in March 2017, DOTS is the first not-for-profit, independent and voluntary run “street project″ delivering ongoing vet support to London’s homeless community, it said.
Street scene
Static street stations manned by volunteer vets, nurses, groomers and trainers provide a lifeline to homeless people and their pets.
Routine veterinary check-ups, blood tests and biopsies can be conducted in the van, in addition to the provision of medicine and ongoing care for chronic conditions.
Volunteers are also on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week in the event of an emergency.
Vital care is already provided to more than 140 street dogs living in Westminster, Camden, Shoreditch, parts of north London and Kent via the charity.
New era
The vet van was unveiled at one of the charity′s weekly “static street station” events on The Strand in December.
Actor and animal welfare campaigner Peter Egan was on hand to officially declare the vet van open.
DOTS director Michelle Clark is thrilled with the donated van. She said: “It will give us the opportunity to help many more homeless owners and their dogs – not only in London, but further afield.
“It will make treatment and diagnosis easier, with the best vet equipment, refrigeration, kennel and extra space to help us work more efficiently – and, in the event of an emergency, have wheels.”
The charity also supplies homeless owners with essential items, such as dog food, dog coats, bedding, collars, leads and toys.

Fireworks for new year (2017 into 2018) in Ol’ London town.
The bell tower (Big Ben – which is actually the name of the bell) shrouded in scaffolding this year due to major renovation works – and for the next 5 years.
The big circular wheel is the ‘London Eye’ – a visitor ‘must’ giving panoramic views all over London.
The second half of the show featured musical tracks only from female artists – to celebrate 100 years of women getting the vote in the UK.

Happy 2018 Everyone – Have a great year campaigning
– with many BIG positives on the horizon.
For us, and as further determination to improve in 2018, the major victory of the year 2017 lies with the incredible Jill at Animals Asia and the signing of an agreement with the Viet Nam government to free every single bile bear in the country (0ver 4,000 bears) and give them all new cruelty free homes at AA sanctuaries. Read more on this at:
That without doubt can be considered the major animal event of the year. There are many more; people ditching meat and taking up a cruelty free lifestyle instead; animals in circuses; the great news we have just had here in the UK that the government will not consider a free vote on the return to hunting. So much more good news !
So much has been achieved, but there is still so much to do. But it can, and will be achieved. Nowdays, with the use of computer systems and instant global audiences being at fingertips, news, campaigns and actions can be undertaken within a few seconds of events happening. This is how it is now and how the future will be – animal abusers will continue to be exposed and as with the UK government, they (governments) will be driven into a corner where they have no option but to do what the people, their voters, want. Democracy is powerful, ok !
Lets make this drive to get governments to listen and act positively for the animals who have no voice our determination for 2018.
On such days and as the old year goes on, the need to determine and evaluate who we are, will become more pressing.
Saying “we”, who do we mean?
I want to explain it, so that no one complains and reproaches me that I have not sent him any New Year’s wishes.
As far as my wishes are concerned, they do not follow a conventional hypocrisy, and that’s why I will not address everyone.
I appeal to us.
To those who fight, because they want to change a system of violence, of crime, to change a system of tyranny against the animals.
I turn to those who, with every means, every force, help to build a new future for the animals, without blood, without slavery.
I turn to the enemies of slaughterhouses and concentration camps, to the enemies of a fur, leather, hunting.
To the saviors of the strays, to the brave ones who are not afraid to show the animal killers.
It is not another world view, or any other opinion that separates us from the others.
What makes us different is about an advanced ethic, an ethic for animals, which is confirmed every day by our struggle, the fight for the liberation of animals, for the liberation of animals from tyranny, and the brutal exploitation of others.
We are few, but we are organized, determined, and we are not tired.
We are the progress against the anachronism.
To all of us I send my warmest wishes for a year full of health, strength and courage.Venus
HAVE A GREAT NEW YEARS DAY !
‘Boom Boom, Bang Bang; Lie Down Your Dead’
…… ‘They build them a home’
its called ‘EU Brussels’
A place where nothing is progressive when it comes to animal welfare.
