This petition was submitted during the 2019-2024 parliament
Rejected petition Stop the euthanasia of any dog that has XL bully characteristics.
Any dog that comes into the UK Governments criteria of XL bully or XL bully resemblance from the Governments posted bulletin on the XL bully ban. To allow any XL bully or considered XL bully after 31st October 2023 to be allowed a exemption certificate.
More details
Many people will have given up their XL bully type dog to a rehousing center after the 31st October 2023. I see one on Facebook the other day looking for a home and only 1-2 years old. If not rehomed she will more than likely be euthanized. Why don't we concentrate on the important issues in this Country, like scrutinizing a member of parliaments expenses for every dog euthanized through this ban. It's not the dog it's the owners 100%. I own a XL bully type dog and he's the best ever.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you are concerned about the euthanasia of XL Bully dogs, We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
