- 315 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 2,258 - 51 added in the past 24hrs)
We do not think the Dangerous Dogs Act (DDA) is fit for purpose in 2024. There are many dog breeds and mixed-breed dogs, and we think that in particular Breed Specific Legislation (BSL) should be removed and appearance not used to decide if a dog is dangerous or not.
