Dog Fighting

The League's Dog Fighting campaign was launched to highlight the problem of dogs being used for fighting with other animals.

Although illegal since 1835, evidence shows that dog fighting is gaining popularity in our towns and cities and the animals involved need to be protected. 


What we are doing

The League is taking steps to stamp out illegal dog fighting for good.

What you can do

You can help our campaign to save dogs from this illegal 'sport'.
