Abolish the Dangerous Dogs Act
Abolish the Dangerous Dogs Act and instead make it the law to have a license to own an animal
As the Dangerous Dogs Act is based on what certain dog breeds look like not about how they are bred/raised. Licensing to own an animal would also help prevent other animal problems.

Only part of the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991 relates to specific breeds of dog, but if you want the whole Act to be repealed we could accept a petition requesting this. You can view this legislation here: www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1991/65/contents
