Change the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991

I am looking to get changes made to the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991, Section (4) on the destruction of dogs. I believe every dog deserves a second chance, unless there is clear evidence that said dog is a danger to the public and no amount of measures in place would prevent it being a danger.

I recently went to court because my dog accidentally bit someone during play and they are trying to destroy my dog. I believe that my dog is the most gentle caring companion you will ever meet. Help me make changes to the law to allow all dogs a second chance before a destruction order is placed.
