Breed Specific Legislation is wrong
I have just heard that Lennox has been sentenced to death by Belfast City Council simply for looking wrong. He hasn’t done anything wrong, hasn’t bitten anyone and is a much loved family pet.
After a long legal battle his owners were given the worst possible news today. In England it would have been possible for Lennox to be entered onto a register and continue to live a happy, if somewhat restricted, life but sadly Northern Ireland doesn’t have quite the same laws as we do over here and so he has been sentenced to death.
if you feel that BSL is wrong and that an animal should be judged on its actions and not on how it looks please join the face book group and do what you can to raise awareness of Lennoxs plight. Lennox is a 5 yr old American Bull dog Labrador cross who because he fits a type definition will die if an appeal is unsuccessful.

My thoughts and hopes, and those of my owners, go out to Lennox and Lennoxs owners tonight
