Rejected petition Stop Breed Banned Legislation in the DDA (dangerous dogs act)

For too long dogs have been named pitbull based on appearance and many breeds have been deemed banned because of poor owner behaviour rather than basing a dog on a case by case basis. Dogs should be deemed dangerous based on behaviour and all "dangerous dog" breeds should be exempt.
