Marc Abraham, or ‘Marc the Vet’, is a practicing Veterinary Surgeon, Broadcaster, Author, and Animal Welfare Campaigner. He’s joined us in the studio many times over the years, and we’ve been following his progress with his 10 year campaign trying to get ‘Lucy’s Law’ passed by the Government into English legislation. Well…in June 2019, the Government passed ‘Lucy’s Law’, banning the commercial 3rd party trade in puppies and kittens, making all breeders accountable and providing transparency for prospective buyers. It came into effect on 6 April 2020 and revolutionised the UK’s approach to animal rights. Marc’s book ‘Lucy’s Law’ is the story of how one little dog helped bring an end to puppy farming in the UK
