Stop breed-specific legislation and euthanising banned dogs.

What the petition asks
We want to put a stop to banning dog breeds. We think only owners should be held accountable for their dogs. We do not want dogs to be euthanised. We think it is up to the owner to get training for their dog and take proper care of it.
We think you can have some amazing-natured dogs which are classed as a ‘dangerous breed’. Just the owners need to be held accountable, not the dogs. We think there is so much proof out there of banned breeds being beautiful animals with beautiful owners.
