Dog training ban: No more aggression and bite attacks!
In a significant step for animal welfare, Minister of Social Affairs and Health Johannes Rauch has issued an innovative regulation that strictly prohibits the training of dogs for aggression or biting among private individuals from April 15, 2025. According to the Krone , this decision has long been requested by animal welfare organizations and the population. The criticism of previous practice, to train dogs for the use of use dogs and as a “living weapons”, is loud and clear: violence has lost nothing in dog training!
The new regulation not only prohibits biting training, but also limits the training of dogs considerably. There are exceptions only for service dogs such as the police or the army. Training that has already started in the last six months before entry into force may only be continued to a limited extent. "A ban on biting and attack training benefits both the animals and the people in our country," said Rauch, emphasizing that every cancellation of the ban is a complicity of possible bite attacks. This clear message should serve as a warning for the next government.
European smoking bans on the march
dr. Schaller also pointed out that even harmful substances are released from tobacco smoke, which proves that it is high time to rethink the smoke habits. In addition, she pleads for a reduction in aromas in e-cigarettes, which in particular attract young people. A ban on smoking could not only improve health, but also result in a change in social handling of smoking.
