I no longer believe that we are a nation of animal lovers. I have read many letters over recent weeks from dog owners complaining about the extension of fireworks night and the effect it has had on their dogs.
And just as the fireworks from bonfire night finally bang their final bang, what do I read in The Argus? November is only halfway through but in Brighton to celebrate the beginning of the Christmas season we have yet more fireworks. My faithful collie, Ben, and I are considering emigrating to a country which is not intent on scaring their canine residents to death.
