Hi Danes&Greys

Yes, I can tell you that this Dublin legislation is quite different than the proposals in Switzerland in that the legislation appeared out of nowhere, with no vote, no consultation with the population, no conslutation with behaviourists, etc. It just became law one day this past June, without warning. How utterly draconian!


Some might say "this has nothing to do with our fight over here" but really, it does. If enough people go against this ban, it will have a knock-on effect everywhere else. I dont know the measure of that effect, but there will surely be one. Just as the BSL started somehwhere else, it too took off like a virus and spread like wildfire throughout the rest of the world. NOw many countries are considering adopting the same or similar proposals. So, if you can sign a petition, or read about this and tell everyone, it will only help all dogs everywhere.

Thanks

OK thank you for this.

I'll make it widely available in the UK

I must say that this is the first that I've heard about it.

Sad state of affairs
