Grant interim exemptions to all seized dogs with no prior history of aggression
We would like for the Government to grant interim exemptions for all dogs seized from their owners under the XL Bully ban who have no history of aggression. This could allow for dogs to remain in the custody of their owners at home and not in kennels.

Background
We believe dogs deserve to remain in safe and loving homes whilst waiting for a decision from the courts. Many beloved pets may be kept for long periods of time in kennels, which can cost the owners thousands of pounds. Many dogs get no satisfactory interaction, and many have been returned home underweight, scared and uncared for. Many owners are scared to lose their pets to kennels for an unknown amount of time and having the interim exemption in place could see more owners come forward.
