Is there a way to prevent an irresponsible pet owner from getting another pet?
<p>I hate to say it but I know someone who lives in an apartment and had a dog in the past and didn't get him groomed regularly. Now she is going to get another dog. Is there any way this can legally be prevented in BC, Canada?</p>

<p>No.</p>

<p>The quality of care for chattel is that the animal is not starving, it is not being subjected to cruelty or pain.   Not getting a "haircut" is perhaps inexplicably not on that list of egregious grievances.</p>
