Ireland's Minister for Agriculture plans to introduce regulations to ban electric dog collars in the coming months.
Ireland's Minister for Agriculture, Charlie McConalogue, plans to introduce regulations in the coming months to ban the use of electric dog collars, following a significant public consultation. The regulations will not impact electric fences, but target remote-controlled electric shock collars used to control or train dogs and cats. Current owners will not be required to remove the collars, but the plan is to eventually phase out their use.
