Abstract

This research aims to explore the relevancy and appropriateness of Breed Specific legislation by examining the impact of perceptions of canine characteristics since the introduction of Breed Specific Legislation, under The Dangerous Dogs Act (1991). To achieve my research aim, I reached out to those holding canine related professions to complete a quantitative survey. I did this by sending
invitations to canine organisations such as the RSPCA, Association of Pet Behaviour Counsellors and later by sharing on LinkedIn and social media sites requesting specific participants. After receiving 52 responses, I analysed my responses in SPSS using descriptive methods including averages and crosstabs.
