Letter to the Daily Telegraph Sir - The RSPCA is appalled by the idea of an antidepressant for dogs (report, April 25). In most cases, if dogs have plenty of exercise and company, are given proper training and a good diet and environment to live in, they will not become depressed or develop behavioural problems. The Animal Welfare Act makes it a legal requirement for owners to meet the needs of their animals. This drug may be used to hide the fact that a dog is not being cared for properly, and that thousands of dogs will be made to take this drug long term. Pet owners may also be horrified to hear that laboratory experiments were carried out on dogs to test this drug, and that some dogs suffered severe side effects and even died. Would caring dog owners really want that to happen? David McDowell, Acting Chief Veterinary Adviser, RSPCA Penny Hawkins, Senior Scientist, RSPCA, Southwater, West Sussex
