Greece, an E.U. country, has clear set animal welfare
legislation. Law 4039/2012 applies to pets and strays, where by acts
of cruelty are punishable with 6 months imprisonment or a fine of between 300 –
30 000 Euros or the imposition of both penalties. These sentences, however,
are rarely enforced and animal cruelty and neglect is a common phenomenon.
