Hungary earmarks HUF 40 mln for animal protection in the this year's budget.
“This 2017 includes HUF 40 mln for animal protection tasks, which will finance the spaying and castration of dogs in shelters, the modernization of dog pounds and animal shelters, and a program to increase public awareness about being a responsible pet owner”, Secretary of State Robert Zsigo said, adding that increasing public awareness about responsible animal ownerships is not just important for the owners of pets, but also for the owners of farm animals.
