Require investigation and risk assessment following fatal dog-on-dog attacks — 6 signatures. Status: rejected.
Require police or local authorities to investigate fatal dog-on-dog attacks and assess the risk posed by the attacking dog. Give authorities powers to impose control measures where necessary, rather than waiting until a person is injured before action can be taken.
On 8 June 2026, my dog Rocky was fatally attacked by a neighbouring dog that breached a damaged boundary fence. Rocky died the following day. Despite the severity of the attack, I was informed that little action could be taken. Rocky’s Law would require investigation and risk assessment following fatal dog-on-dog attacks before a person is harmed.
