Petition Changes to the Dangerous Dog Act To Allow For Prosecution on Private Property

More details

Tragically on the 26th March 2013 Jade a lively, bright and well loved 14 year girl fell victim to a savage attack by 4 dogs in a private residence after spending time with a close friend in her home.

We want to get the law changed to make dog owners accountable for their dogs at the moment the police have no powers to prosecute dog owners if their dog attacks somebody on private property we want that changed as well as regulating certain breads of dogs so they have a license and have the dog registered and micro chipped this would give police the power to confiscate viscous dogs that are unlicensed and hopefully we can save other family's suffering like we have gone through.
