Closed Dangerous Dogs and the Law

Closed on

Request to change the law in respect of the dangerous dogs act and the responsibility of owners.
Request for harsher and more realistic punishment. By the adding of certain breeds to this act such as Staffordshire bull terriers and rottweilers etc, not necessarily banning of all these breeds but greater control of these dogs. There are to many people being badly hurt or animals being destroyed because of certain breeds of dogs and limited actions of their owners, with little action from government, Courts or Police because of limited laws in this country.
