This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

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.
