We’re waiting for a new Petitions Committee
Petitions had to stop because of the recent general election. Once a new Petitions Committee is set up by the House of Commons, petitions will start again.

Closed petition Increase punishments for owners in dog attacks
There should be greater penalties for owners of dangerous dogs that attack people. Increase maximum sentences for dangerous dogs offences to match those for assault and bodily harm where a knife or gun is used.
More details
Dog breeds are not to blame for attacks - it's the owners and dodgy breeders doing so for maximum profit.
