If your dog is defininatly a staff then show them the paperwork, and make sure that the vet can confirm this. easy peasy. This country is taking the piss, i think they have a lot more IMPORTANT matters to be dealing with, rather than stopping you and seizing your dog! Its down right out of order, i think for one the dangerous dogs act has to be one of the most stupid laws invented, unfortunatly they have biased against certain breeds just because of size and power. They have not seemed to look at the actual breed, and been able to look at the gentle, loyal, and definataltly friendly nature that they really have. The goverment as usual, has just jumped into things neck first. not that this is unusual. Its a shame, as these dogs can be such great pets and now because of the media portraying them as big dangerous man eating monsters... people seem to be believing them. It is not the dog or the breed, but the way humans have treated them and bought them up. It only takes one idiot, and everything can go pear-shaped :-( I for one would be more scared of the evil little hamsters!

Do NOT sign your dog over at this time. You do NOT have to have your dog destroyed. No one bar a judge can order your dog to be destroyed. Even the police cannot do it without your agreement. You need to get a good solicitor (I can recommend one in your area) . Will be in touch. Regards, Alison Green. Hi Ben,

However, while all hype, which is being whipped up by the media - 'cos there short of news - must be taken with a pinch of salt. I own a Rotti and a Japanese Akita - what happened to me after the Rotti attack at the Pub, (which was on the tv) - I went for my usual morning walk - unbelievably the dog warden was waiting for me. He said there had been a complaint about my Rotti - for attacking a golden labrador - I was dumb founded because he'd not attacked any dog. And, apparently the other dog didn't suffer any damage. So my point is that also people lie about these things - just to bring some enjoyment in there sad miserable lifes. Regards Paul White Hi there

He said there had been a complaint about my Rotti - for attacking a golden labrador - I was dumb founded because he’d not attacked any dog. And, apparently the other dog didn’t suffer any damage.

So my point is that also people lie about these things - just to bring some enjoyment in there sad miserable lifes.
