HELP! POLICE HAVE SEIZED MY DOG
Have the Police visited your home and seized your dog or contacted you to say they are going to seize your dog for being a banned breed or a suspected fighting dog (the term fighting dog is used for descriptive purposes and not accusing you of actually participating in dog fighting). OR has your dog injured somebody.
Home: Welcome
Under the Dangerous Dogs ACT 1991, it is illegal to own certain types of dog. These are the pit bull terrier, a Japanese Tosa, Dogo Argentino and a Fila Braziliero. This list also extends to a banned breed TYPE!
Whether a dog is deemed as a banned breed or a banned breed type depends on its appearance rather than its actual breed or name.
Help. Police Have Seized My Dog is a FREE and independent service.
