BSL permits unfair treatment of certain dog breeds based on stereotypes. This is a petition to end the BSL. A new law should be brought in to replace the Dangerous Dogs act to ensure responsibility for a dog’s behaviour is placed on the owner or person in charge of it.

It is the owners responbility to control there own dog or a dog they are in charge of. Also to seek help if their dog or a dog they are in charge of shows signs of aggression or behavioural problems.
