Support the Kennel Club and Dangerous Dogs Act Study Group petition to repeal the Dangerous Dogs Act and replace it with better legislation

Animal welfare is important to us here at the Kennel Club. That’s why we’re part of the Dangerous Dogs Act Study Group (DDASG) - a wide-ranging group representing animal welfare, local authorities and veterinary professional organisations which include Battersea Dogs Home, Blue Cross, British Veterinary Association, Dogs Trust, The Mayhew Animal Home, Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons, Wandsworth Borough Council and Wood Green Animal Shelters.

Together, we believe that the Dangerous Dogs Act should be overhauled to better protect the public, placing greater responsibility on dog owners and remove the huge welfare implications affecting dogs deemed to be of a certain type.
