Require every police force to use the Interim Exemption Scheme
This scheme applies to dogs suspected of being a prohibited type under section 1 of the Dangerous Dog Act 1991. If the dog is not considered to be a risk to public safety, this would allow a dog that has been seized to be released and returned to their owner pending a court hearing.
This would reduce the number of dogs and the length of stay in a kennel environment.
If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
