Rejected petition Ask the Prime Minister to reconsider the ban on the Bully XL

Let's change the way society produces the next generation of dogs. Tackle irresponsible breeding of dogs that are not fit for the purpose of being good family pets. Make bad breeding and bad ownership the crime. Breed bans just cause the bad breeders to subtly alter their blue print.

More details

Every report commissioned agreed that the DDA and Breed Specific legislation did not make the public any safer.
Every expert agrees we need to look at the other end of the lead to make a difference.
The original DDA should have meant the end of the Pit Bull (all were to be killed or neutered) but we now how very many more of these dogs than ever before.
The Bully XL probably exists because breeding Pit Bulls was banned.
Make a significant change instead of making the same mistake twice.
