STOP THE BAN OF AMERICAN XL BULLIES

Rejected 12 signatures

What the petition asks

Recent news has come to light that the government are planning to ban the American XL bully dog breed. Start taking action on the owners themselves instead of an entire breed of dogs!
I have come across many American XL bully dogs who are extremely friendly, well trained and great to have as company. Instead of banning an entire breed of dogs, you need to start taking action on their owners! It’s not the dogs fault if the dog has been raised and trained poorly. There are other breeds out there that are far more aggressive than this kind and this needs to be taken into consideration. STOP THE BAN.
