Stop forcing people to be responsible for killing their fur babies by December

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Think carefully about the pain you are causing people like me that every day I will look at my beloved fur baby thinking that I will have to put my innocent dog down by December

There are many dogs that are not banned that would not pass the dangerous dog assessment but they still go on to have great lives without hurting anyone. You are taking a sweeping brush approach. I can face the families of those sadly lost souls because my dog was not responsible - can you face me when YOU force me to kill my innocent bully dog by the end of the year! This hurts a lot Rishi…

The Government has said that current XL Bully dog owners do not need to take any action at this stage.
