Implement the Law on Dogs on Leads in Public Places, too many pets are killed!

Closed 80 signatures

What the petition asks

Far too many cats and dogs are being killed by dogs that are not on leads in public places, as per the Law. Too many Dog Wardens and Police seem unable to bring forth any convictions to owners, this HAS to change. Owners need to be held accountable for these deaths their dog is their responsibility

My Group have been informed of 3 instances in the last week of cats/dogs being killed by dogs not on leads. The Law needs to protect these innocent animals.

It’s against the law to let a dog be dangerously out of control anywhere, such as:
in a public place
in a private place, eg a neighbour’s house or garden
in the owner’s home
The law applies to all dogs.

Why are people getting away with their dogs killing innocent family pets?
