Why was this petition rejected?
We can't publish petitions when the request is something that's already happening or something that has been announced since you started your petition.
We think your petition is covered by Government or Parliament action already. If you'd like something else, you could start a new petition clearly explaining what it is.
Dog fighting is prohibited under the Animal Welfare Act 2006, which makes it an offence to engage in or organise dog fighting, as well as to allow a dog to be trained for fighting. The law also makes it illegal to attend a dog fight or to possess fighting equipment. Those found guilty of involvement in dog fighting can face severe penalties, including imprisonment and heavy fines.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
