I'm out of my depth on this one.

Hmm, I've never understood it that way, although granted, I have never sought to procure, nor to offer, the services of a prostitute.

"Hire, let, lease, rent, charter mean to engage or grant for use at a price. Hire and let, strictly speaking, are complementary terms, hire implying the act of engaging or taking for use and let the granting of use." http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/hire

Rescue places sell animals. A pedigree breeder who sells puppies and can show that all the relevant health tests have been done on the dam and sire is being responsible. I certainly wouldn't expect them to give them away for free. And, just because they are a Kennel Club approved breeder doesn't mean that they have the animals best interests at heart. You only have to look at (most) Bassets, Pugs, German Shepherds, English Bulldogs, and watch the two programmes of Pedigree Dogs Exposed to see that Kennel Clubs still has a long way to go.

So does anyone want to ban anything, or not?

I'd like to ban the letter 't' - and anyone who's double-jointed.

Double-joined.
