Having lived with the restrictions and implications of Breed specific legislation and witnessing first hand the effect it has on dogs, dog parents and the perceptioon of both from society. We always support campaigns and petitions that try to raise awareness and highlight the injustice of the current legislation. Fighting for change, waiting for the evidence presented by experts to be acknowledged.
So even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream.
I have a dream that dogs(my four little children)will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the appearance, shape, size and conformation(colour of their skin)but by the content of their character.
I have a dream today.
Martin Luther King (1963)
But:
Breed specific legislation is not the only injustice inflicted on animals in our society and we stand up and support those fighting the wrongs on all levels.
Cruelty
Neglect,
Abuse,
Torture,
Have no place in society.

Fight for change
DDA Watch monitors issues arising as a result of canine legislation and helps to keep the general public aware whilst building a better picture of the problems and campaigning for change. We campaign for an end to breed specific legislation and for dog laws to be focused on the owners and breeders of dogs, regardless of the breed or type.
Camp Beagle defines itself as a strictly lawful campaigning group. Our primary objectives are to shut down MBR Acres Ltd, free the beagles and to ban animal testing in the UK.
Camp Beagle is the longest running animal rights protest camp in history. It has been dug into the grass verge of a remote B-road for over 2 years, outside the gates of Britain’s biggest puppy factory. The industrial breeder supplies beagle dogs, by the van load, to toxicology testing laboratories, .
All dogs deserve a good life and a safe, loving home. We exist to provide a safe place for homeless dogs and to find new loving places for them to live.
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.
