Rejected petition Muzzle any dog that the owner knows is dangerous regardless of breed or age
I right this today because this morning my dog was attacked again.The owner an elderly lady screaming at the top of her lungs and when I said "my dog is gentle and wouldn't harm a fly" He's a staff and that's why people panic. She responded with its not yours my dog bites! Which it did.
More details
The government need to act Apon this. I have suffered and endured over the years people picking their dogs up, crossing the road, anything to stay out of the path of my dog Dude is his name. He has been attacked so many times I have lost count!! Because he's a staffy he is persecuted from the start. There is no education about the breed just according to most simply they are all dangerous IT'S NOT THE DOG IT'S THE OWNER. As an example I have just purchased a female staff people can't get enough.
