Petition

Legalise the ownership of XL bullies.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

I want to legalise XL bully’s and create more in depth procedures and background checks for people who want to own them and any large and or working breed dogs.
Countless of young, healthy, happy, and friendly dogs are being put to sleep because of irresponsible owners and a law that does not take into consideration the lives of these beautiful dogs. I want the government to govern the people and not punish the innocent dogs that are being treated poorly and inevitably put to sleep because of the lack of care from the people who buy them. These dogs have no choice where they go. The least we can do is given them a second chance at life and love.
