In The United Kingdom The Dangerous Dogs Act Ordered The Friendliest Dog Be Put Down

A woman had her dog taken from her home because of an outdated law in the United Kingdom called the Dangerous Dogs Act. While the dog showed no signs of aggression and was super friendly to everyone he met, he couldn’t change his breed, which meant like other dogs just like him, he would face an untimely death.

Tragically, many dogs are put down even when they show no signs of aggression. They can be permitted to live if they have owners that are prepared to care for them. It means that the dogs must wear muzzles and leashes whenever they are in public.

You can’t always judge a book by its cover, or a dog by its breed.
