The Dangerous Dogs Act was criticised from the very start as being poorly drafted knee-jerk reaction by the previous Tory government. It does not take into account the effects of the environment or handling (or training) on a dog's behaviour, and only judges them on breed (look up racism and apartheid to find out how well that approach usually ends). But more to the point - it makes the dog pay the price for the owner's failings. Irresponsible owners will just go buy another dog (ban or no ban), responsible owners who get targeted by this law lose a member of their families and dogs with no problem histories like Teddy their lives. Carry on like that and the only dogs left will be the bad ones!
