Put A Stop To The Ban On XL Bully’s

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

Seek balanced, fair dog-related laws. Emphasize responsible ownership; it's about owners, not breeds. Focus on education, enforcement, and collaboration, not breed bans.
We urge the government to understand XL bully breeds as soft, kind, and loveable giants before taking drastic action. Informed decisions, expert input, and public education are essential for fair policies. Responsible ownership matters.
