This petition was submitted during the 2017-2019 parliament

Rejected petition Change the Dangerous Dog Act so that it deals with the deed not the breed.

More people have been attacked by dog breeds not listed in the DDA than people who have. It is not right that an innocent dog can be destroyed just because of the way it looks. Thousands of innocent animals are currently being destroyed because of this unfair legislation, please help me change it.
