Xl Bully Owners Urged To Comply With New Restrictions By December 31st | Good Morning Britain
XL Bully owners are today being urged to make sure they are ready to comply with new restrictions that come into force on 31 December. We chat with UK Chief Vet Christine Middlemiss, about the new restrictions for keeping XL Bully dogs on a lead and muzzled when in public.
It will also become illegal to breed, sell, advertise, gift, exchange, abandon, or let XL Bully dogs stray. There are also just over 6 weeks left to apply for an exemption certificate before the ban on the breed comes into force on the 1st of February 2024.

If every XL owner was like this lady there would not be an issue, but unfortunately there are a lot of irresponsible idiot owners who do not have a clue how to handle these dogs
Irresponsable people don’t make agressive dogs. It’s people with more serious mental health issues such as Narcissistic personality disorders. It takes more that complacency to make an aggressive dog, it takes excessive aggression from the owner, this is a fact known by all dog trainers
Actually there have experienced trainers who’ve been attacked by their own dogs. So probably safer to ban them completely.
Do you even know her? You decide that from a short TV Interview? Talk about gullible.
No I don't know her but she seems pretty responsible to me I'm only voicing my opinion. I'm not on a panel deciding if she can keep the dog, that is up to the experts. I suppose you are an expert by the way your talking
She hasn't seen any issues YET.
''Perfect city dog'' LOL
Just say your brainwashed by the MSM. LOL
I don't own an xl bully. But I am a dog owner. I think everybody who owns a dog should be responsible for their dog and whatever it does. People should be. licenced. to own any dog. So that dog is linked to a selected person and they are solely responsible Should not be punishing the dog. Most of them have done nothing wrong.
I strongly believe in licencing and would get behind any campaign for it. The amount of animal welfare issues from over breeding to dog fighting and more that could be solved through licencing and better law it would give dogs so much more protection and if people with temporary bans on keeping animals had to actually reapply for licences there would be more protection from those people. It's better for everyone except those who abuse animals be it intentionally, motivated by money cruelty or neglect
Ye to dangerous for normal life ,other pepole shouldn't have to take risk ,get a big farm or land other wise realise your poor and follow rules like other pepole
I totally agree with this. Licence the owners of any dog. Everyone should train their dogs properly and prove it to obtain a license. Poor dogs getting the blame. It’s always the person to blame.
The Calgary model of dog licensing has been mentioned in parliamentary debate before, I wish they would do this instead of punishing and euthanising innocent dogs 💔
@@BowserLucaTheThird I could not have put that bit of myself. Bringing him back the dog licence will probably be a great thing. They had it years ago and it worked.
this is great news. safety first as owners cannot be trusted
They should bring back the dog licence. and maybe so people have to have public liability insurance for their dog.
Responsible owners do have public liability, it's called pet insurance. And people pass their car test, they still drive like idiots.
Or just hold owners accountable, insurance or not they are forced to fork out
@@TheKeirsunishi That is already the case.
All people should have a licence to own a dog. Any dog. Poor pups. The dogs get the blame once again. We all know it’s people to blame. Why would you get a dog and not train it.
A fake certificate of exemption is going to be the new finesse for these criminals now, especially with desperate people with the view that their dog is a good dog.
For sure.
@@BowserLucaTheThird No. It would probably be an electronic register.
@@mbak7801 surely be chipped linked or something
People fake service dogs in my country so they can take their untrained dog with them into stores. You can get fake service dog id cards online and the stores don’t know they can ask for a doctors letter stating that the person needs the dog to assist with their disability
Haha,,, yeah. I bet they'll be on eBay in a few weeks.
People attack each other daily, we are talking about a minimal amount, that again!?…. Your obviously try to make a name for yourself, at the expense of the dogs!! It’s people that train them to be aggressive, grow a sour and think about the animals and all those fantastic , responsible , owners, because of a Minuit percentage of the population, and without knowing the facts would put money on the police records percentage wise would show this also, I’m so angry right now, how do I contact the show??
Already had issues with this, UK police can not tell the difference between XL Bully's and any other large breed. 🤦🏽♀️
I believe you, I think alot of Cane Corso owners will be hassled, some people can't even tell the difference.
Yup going to be as much mess as they made of the pitbull ban were slots of completely non pitbull dogs were seized off familys and killed. If anyone has any suspicion their dog could be accused of been type they need to apply to exempt them rather than having more innocent dogs killed. I've two XL boys and just adopted a XL ten week old female puppy to save her last week. I'm exempting them all, my boys were already neutered and they were thankfully muzzled trained in case of medical procedures so I was a step ahead in been prepared but so many unsuspecting people will loose their dogs because they don't realise they'll be accused off type
I work for a grocery company that does deliveries. I went to deliver to a customer whose XL dog was going crazy to come out the door. When I approached the door, she opened it fully, knowing it will rush at me, when opening the door she said it’s friendly as it was rushing towards me and ended up biting onto my calf and wasn’t letting go. needed stitching as well as tetanus jab and was off for two weeks from work .I blame the owners for all dog attacks.
And the bad breeding
How many dog attacks have been by other breeds of dog? I don't own an XL Bully but I want to know how many attacks have happened by other breeds too.
Agreed, other breeds known to attack should also be banned.
None of them should be banned. It's no different that blaming crimes on a ethnic group.
75% of fatal dog attacks in the UK over the past few years have been from XL Bullies. There you go thats a statistic that shows how overwhelmingly dangerous they are compared to other breeds. Happy to help.
@@cafiusklien If you think there’s any comparison between ethnicity in humans and the breed of a dog then I feel really sorry for you, life must be so confusing to you all the time.
@@CosmicBrain21so theirs no difference between any human races/ethnicities?
One of the biggest problem is the owners, Sophie is a wonderful owner and shows us how they can be trained
Lets be honest she's not the usual xlbully owner.
@@user-il9qo4qc4nyou really shouldn't watch bbc so much!! The majority of xl bully owners are responsible, train their dogs & give them good well rounded lives,it's a very small majority that have caused this !! The dog responsible for attacks after the xl "type" is Labrador but you don't see that on msm do you !
"One of" is keyword.
Problem is that even her trained dog can turn, which is exactly the problem.
If you had to tackle one of these in a situation, could you handle it? Could you get it off a person? Most dogs are pretty easy to deal with certain types have higher levels of aggression and are hard to handle = why they are so concerned.
Mastiffs doberman ,Rotties,American Bulldogs, German shepherd's, Cane Corsos Pressa Canarios ,Malinois,Bull mastiffs, boerbeols.Borduex.All breeds which are capable of doing just as much damage as an XL and often do , So why target and demonise one breed and ignore the others? This legislation won't work it'll not stop deaths by dogs, it'll just case the death of many innocent family pets .
I've seen large men dragged down the road by these breeds let alone women and teenagers....ALL dogs have aggressive potential BUT when they're as big and powerful as these...it's this that's makes them dangerous....alot of European large breeds are banned from the UK already. I can honestly see why, especially the type of person that buys them.. unfortunately not all are like this lady owner on here. At 53 I know alot of people...I don't know one that could handle a gone savage XL to XXL Bully.
@@mandysmith7619 No european breeds are banned.
German shepherd?
People need to do a dog driving test before getting one, to prove they are actually capable of owning and taking proper care of one.
totally 100% agree! There are so many people who don't take proper precautions when getting a dog. I hate it when someone has a dog off leash and just lets their dog causally walk up to a dog on a lead. How does that owner know the dog on the lead isn't going to get nervous and snap at the off lead dog?! Some dog owners have zero common sense
Lol wow do dogs drive
@@charlesfriel5570 The roads are dangerous enough...
She said she takes precautions as a responsible dog owner. What are these precautions she has taken? The precautions are to have them muzzled and be on lead. Thats a responsible owner. My dog is aggressive, not a bully or anything along those lines, he wears a muzzle and is on lead. Before you all point fingers as im the owner so obviously its my fault, no!!! I got him like this. My dog was in kennels for 4 years and a stray before that. I dont know if he would bite, he doesnt like anything or anyone coming in his space, i wont give him the chance to bite. I dont see why there is a big to do with this law. Responsible owners should be responsible!!!
well done
@@beaulieuc8910 thank you
I have 10 month old Jack Russell who love playing with 2 xl dogs and owners is so proud to see is dogs happy playing with my dog
The other issue which richard rightly says with these dogs is that people have these dogs for the intimatation factor or to look hard. Worse still they are still some bred purely to fight. Too many lives have been lost already and not enough care by the public has been taken so its natural that it must be banned.
Wrong. None of these dogs are used for fighting. They still use pitbulls. It’s been confirmed by police and criminal lawyers, unfortunately speed and agility beats looks and slow dogs. “Too many lives have been lost” I’m sure you think it’s an absurd amount… reality it’s 4, I suggest you look into it yourself rather than having the news tell you everything and you taking it as gospel.
@@Willxors Bit aggressive but I know where you are coming from. This is similar to how the "Dangerous Dogs Act 1991" came about where number of deaths is in the single digits however, deaths shouldn't be treated lightly and it is unfortunate for those 4 individuals and there families. But I agree that this is overkill as this is imposing eugenics to cause extinction of a dog breed.
Oh no I don't. But as I don't like dogs mainly due to having to fend one off attacking my family member once, you'll understand why I don't have issue with the law taking matters out of people who either don't care or are using them to intimidate and threaten people. So please chill with that moral high ground and understand that even one life is one life too many when it concerns the families and friends of the victims. @@Willxors
Anyone remember when the same argument was being said about Rottweilers? Every generation this comes up around different breeds.
And it was legitimate, they ought to be banned still.
Same , different 🚽
Yes, ban them all.
@@CosmicBrain21🤡
@@PanglossDr🤡
Probably only thing left that can protect British citizens these days.
She's constantly treating it to keep it calm
That woman is deluded, those dogs are very dangerous it’s about time the government did do something about dangerous dogs and hers is one of them.
🤡
This is horrible. If I had a dog I wouldn't want it taken away !!!
Maybe I should listen before I make comments
These dogs have been bred to be aggressive, woman on sofa with the soppiest looking cute dog 😂😂
yes insane
My husky has been attacked twice now by 2 different French bulldogs,1st time wasn’t so bad the owner grabbed it quickly, but the 2nd one about 1 month later,it was biting my dogs face very aggressively,the owner couldn’t get it back on the lead,then it bit its owner,all whilst i tried getting my dog away before he bit back,in the end my dog had enough and bit it back very hard.any dog can do this not just bullies,just keep the dog on a lead if your not sure about it.a few weeks later i spoke to another dog walker who dog was attacked by the same frenchie
Yeah, you’ve got to watch out for those Papillons, haven’t you? “Any breed”…do me a favour.
I would say the blame is on the owner as any dog is dangerous if not properly trained. This whole argument to me feels like something implemented by people who think they know best without actually going through the process of qualitive data (dairies and personal documents) and only looked at the quantitative data (stats and figures).
The difference is the power of xl bullies and Pitbulls , your dog would have been ripped apart and possibly you
@@BB-qp9rigo and do some research please, nothing to do with power. It’s to do with genetics. Pitbulls have a similar bite force to a Labrador, are they deemed as dangerous by the public? No. I’d stop blaming dogs for how they look, and look into their genetics instead, kangals have a bite force of over 740, power doesn’t mean anything in the slightest.
@@Willxors I don’t need to research ,its common knowledge that some dogs have a much higher jaw strength than others , google the top ten you might learn something
I've had dogs all my life, we used to have 2 staffies, they were the kindest and most loveable boys in the world, they were in our house with our granddaughter from her birth and adored her, she loved playing with them in the garden in summer and in the house in winter. Maybe the government should be looking at the owners more closely. Dogs dont make bad Dogs, Owners make bad Dogs.
This 💯 percent .
My pitt has just passed. Would have been 17 in January and was never aggresive to anything yet would have been put down if caught.
And ? … so what.
@@mrinvisible9175 he lived for nearly 17 years and never showed aggresion to anyt or anyone. He was classed as dangerous breed and would have been put to sleep but he was not dangerous because he had an owner than can look after dogs and doesn't use it as protection or a status symbol. Foh
@@danday8596 Wonderful… an exception to the rule . However statistically insignificant to the issue of dangerous dogs. These land sharks are dangerous there is no argument to be made for not banning the Bully’s .
@@mrinvisible9175 🤡
The Staffordshire bull terrier is the original Pitbull terrier without this dog those red nose pit type Dublin red dogs wouldn't be around
fault lays with the breeders. all these dogs are good boys . they never asked to be born. get a grip on dog breeding.
Why do people feel entitled to put the lives of others at risk?
It comes down to the owners every single time, no matter the breed. What should be happening is certain people , those who train the dogs to behave that way , It’s the owners
Soz posted by accident Those people should be banned from having any kind of animals
Should we put huge body builders that have had a fight to sleep also???
Other dogs are not out here ripping people apart.. Pitbull type dogs are.
Not always... dogs need to be socialized this law will stop that and make dogs more nervous.. People cross the street now if see any big dog..
@@takeysha2332😅😅 Labradors are responsible for the most bites after xl/pitbull types, stop watching BBC......🤡
Richard is becoming more like Alan Partridge by the day.
he is kinda based on Madely , Frank Partridge , even Martyn Tyler
Any kind of dog will suit city life , people get these kind of dogs , because it is the latest dog on the list of must have , then they will get forgotten about when next breed comes to light of must have all fashion statement
That isn't a bully it is a pit bull terrier and it doesn't have the dosile temperament of the xl bully. That dog is already band and I bet if she ended up pregnant she would think differently
So its not a recognised breed but you want to put controls on the breed. How can you know for certain its the type of dog you looking for....
Bread for aggression 🤦🏻♂️ he hasn’t a clue he wouldn’t know an xl from a Staffordshire bull terrier they just don’t like the breed
People who own power breeds always give the 'any dog can bite' story totally ignoring yhe fact that large powerful dogs do far more damage
Dogs are bred for certain characteristics, temperament, size, colour etc. what are bully dogs bred for in the first place? What are herding or guardian dogs bred for? Genetics carry a lot of risks and if those dogs being bred and sold to people who have no idea what the generations of the litter is on both sides, there certainly can be some very serious problems. Why did that lady get a X-L bully? I’m sure it’s also to protect her home, herself her family. That dog may appear docile when inside the home chilling on a zoom call, but let some dog and person it doesn’t recognize and see how it reacts. Will it be neutral? Chill? Or would it get off that couch and mare sure that perceived threat doesn’t enter, or if it did, it retreats and gets out asap? She didn’t say what she does with her Billy (dogs name) just saying it’s a family pet. No activity mentioned, no taking it to obedience school or obtaining a good citizen certificate, no a sport club mentioned. So that dog gets to hang about the house, go for walks and hikes. That’s why I don’t believe that this dog was just bought as a family member pet.
Bullies are bread to be companion dogs . They basically bred out the terior genetics from staffs and pit bulls and replaced it with mastiff genetics. They behave like mastiffs that's why people like them. They don't move much or get the zoomies in the house they just sit next to you. They bark a little to alert you of someone coming near but aren't very vocal overall. They aren't aggressive they are protective that's how the problems occur. The owner gets nervous and the dog interprets that as my owner is under threat and attacks . Pocket bullies and standard bullies are great. But the XL well you probably shouldn't have a 65 kg dog if you yourself aren't over 85kg or you might have problems controlling it. Then you will be nervous you can't control it. And the nerves will trigger the dog . Banning xl bullies will just make move to another large breed and then we will see the same problem with that breed.
Banning one dog will just make those awful dog owners move onto another, any breed can be trained to be vicious and aggressive, *IT'S NEVER THE DOG'S FAULT!*
"any breed can be trained to be vicious and aggressive" But only the pitbull family naturally is like this. They were created precisely for this purpose after all.
Wth would a vet know... killing dogs disgusting shouldnr beabke to call themselves vets ... Cartel
American Bullies were never bred to be aggresive quite the opposite lets put this myth to bed
This 👆 💯
Thousands of dogs have been needlessly slaughtered already. Discrimination based on looks. How would that look for people. This is pure evil incompetence.
Dog is totally down with everything being said.
"I don't think so because we haven't seen any evidence [of the dogs being dangerous], what we have seen is a handfull of attacks." Could these people be any more dumb?
The main stream media are pusting false information about this breed and the same for that corrupt vet, more people are realising how out of control they are, it's discussing
Disgusting how these dogs will be destroyed by the end of the year if in rescues. And I'm sick of hearing people saying they are bred to be aggressive. They aren't. Humans cause it. Irresponsible owners.
What dogs next on the hit list after the bully ?
LET ME TELL YOU, THE PPE WAS ON SALE IN 2018
So are German shepherds so are Rottweilers so are Doberman so so are a lot of dogs the xl bully was was bread to be a family dog this is crazy my dogs and American bully not the xl it’s not going anywhere
i would still keep one because i know how to handle dogs 👍🏻 the APBT was also outlawed you can find one regardless, dont panic
I find it interesting that every XL bulley owner Ive seen interviewed with their dog has body language which is a bit jumpy, and they all keep their hand on their dog in a holding back position. This says a lot
They get them not despite their fearsome reputation, but because of their fearsome reputation
XL Bullies are not inherently aggressive. They are often protective but also known for their loyalty and affection. Any dog can be aggressive without the right and appropriate training. Unfortunately all the attacks that has happened, have been with dogs who weren’t trained therefore people assume that it’s the dogs fault. It’s really not. XL bully’s shouldn’t be banned but instead, to all of those who want to own such breed should hold a special license saying that they have been trained and they have right capabilities to take care and maintain such breed. If you’re dog owner you would know that any dog on the face of this planet can be aggressive without the right and appropriate training.
I feel so sorry for all these poor pups. No dog is a bad dog.
let them be banned they serve no purpose and a useless liability
Ban can’t come soon enough.
not every dog does or can do same damage so stop with that, its pit types causing the most nonsense
@@93ImagineBreakerseeing as some have red blood this type can be more dog on dog aggressive
The reason these XL breeds are the ones way ahead of any other breed. For Attacking someone. Is because this breed is the ,"Fashionable" breed ATM. Yrs ago it was German Shepherds.
🐂 💩
I can remember all this from the 90s with pit bull's and it didn't work then so don't know how it will work this time I really like all bull breads but they do need a firm hand when being traind but alot of the people who own these dogs don't have a clue about dogs but same as always the animal has to pay the price for bad owners
BAN ALL DOGS OF THIS TYPE AND SIZE,,,,,,,NOW.
In the sixties it was German Shepherds....IT IS NOT THE DOGS...ITS THE OWNERS.
should be a license for breeders. meet a strict criteria. im fed up seeing dogs getting bred with all sorts of breeds without knowing the risks to their health amd then charge thousands. 10s of thousands of dogs get neglected or abandoned every year.
I wish my country will follow and ban them too.
Thinks there will be few checks on the dogs . The fines should be huge after attacks with a jail sentence on top .
😂😂😂 🔔 end
It's about time.
I know all dogs not bad but all dogs should lead if they had they might not attack someone
How many times must we go through this? It is *NEVER* the fault of the dog, it is *ALWAYS* the fault of the owner!
Well that’s wrong for this breed. With experienced trainers being attacked by their XLs
@@hqew6662I’m an experienced trainer, once in a while you do get a genetically unsound dog, and guess what, they are usually that way because backyard breeders have bred them for colour, or just because they can, at the detriment of their health, physical or mental. Doesn’t mean the breed as a whole is bad, I’ve been bitten by a frenchie, does that bring into account that all frenchies are bad? No. It’s illogical
@@WillxorsI appreciate your expertise and knowledge and I agree. The owners have to take responsibility. However, my chihuahua cannot chew a piece of chicken if it's over 1/2 an inch big, an XL bully can shred a metal car to pieces. The level of damage and danger isn't comparable.
@@BP-of5cp so can a kangal? But you don’t see them on the news do you? It’s genetics mate? XL bullys have a bite force of around 300, labs have a bite force of 230, the difference between both is marginal, yes, they’re strong, but they aren’t as strong as you think when a bite from a lab is pretty similar in damage.
I wouldn't say it is always the fault of the owner as genetics do play into a dog's temperament yes however, it doesn't mean an owner can't make a strong effort to control that. I mean our ancestors tamed wolves so... Another issue I have is I feel they have over exaggerated and not planned this through since making something illegal makes it harder to regulate
And who will actually enforce this ? Take a look at some of the owners. You just know, they won't comply. I am talking about feral people, who own these dogs, and will use these dogs for protection, and quite happily let them off the lead. Responsible owners, still can't ever guarantee their dog's behaviour. Like a human, a dog can flip. I still think most get them for protection
How many times does this vet need to blink im amazed she can even see lol
If a breed of dog can fell a grown man in minutes it is not suitable as a pet. As well as attacks on humans the number of dog-on-dog attacks has increased massively. Only 17 out of 39 police forces record these attacks and, based on their data, attacks have increased from 1,700 a year in 2016 to 11,559 in 2021. That's an increase of 700%. These attacks are devastating not just for victim dogs but the owners. Also these attacks are frequently the precursor to attacks on humans. There are plenty of other breeds to choose from that don't require specialist handling.
Affordable DNA sampling in various bullies and those that have attacked or killed would be an interesting study on bloodline and temperament. Sounds like the UK is reclaiming civility in its public parks whereas the U.S. is indifferent to public safety on many levels, as XL Bully population increases and owners often let them roam the public parks off leash, despite that legal violation. In the U.S. "freedom" is often interchanged with boorishness and belligerence of the dog owner.
I have a XL bully hes the softeset friendliest Dog I have owned.

She hasn't lost the argument
How can you get someone on a debate who is completely biast on a ban and won’t accept it’s an owners fault for a dog attacking
The thing is, every dog can be dangerous. l once had a very savage Jack Russell, who was not keen when people arrived at my front door, and my mail was deemed to be an enemy, and was often ripped to shreds lol.
lol. The murderous Jack Russell terrier.
You’re more likely to be able to stop a Jack Russell than an Xl bully.
Yes, but you'd be able to overpower the Jack Russell but you cannot overpower an XL bully.
good !
And then you wonder why the public think they have real pedigree with paper works when buying and the papers works is real but there furbabys are not real pedigrees you tell me how this is allowed to go on ? And why this doesn't get stopped and fixed and protect the pedigree papers works and why this isn't stopped and why it's allowed and shouldn't be and all the public think there getting what they pay for and so ain't and look how many calling there furbabys xl bully's and so ain't and most are Staffordshire bull terriers or mastiff Staffordshire bulls so Concerning when Staffordshire bull terriers have good fantastic names we proven that it was the bad owners and bad people getting them if you start punishments for the humans doing wrongs then you will get better out comes and then the rest doing good fantastic and brilliant carry on doing so with all furbabys ❤
Everyone will say their dog is good, not violent because they love them until it attacks others or the owner themselves. Sadly humans learn from experience more than for example. The government is correct but the ban should have started in November a full ban in January. but as always the UK is slow and people have lost lives while others are injured and disfigured
Ignorance is sad.
Its like people owning Lions and trying to tell us that their Lion is lovely and would never hurt any one. Its utter madness
Trying to compare domesticated dogs and lions 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂 my XL is born n bread with my nefews hes such big baby even council checked said hes bless bully 😅 don't get it twisted hes knows went to bark 😊
exactly, narcissistic gaslighting and lack of accountability
The new rules are too vague. My Staffordshire bull terrier cross meets all the requirements and even our local vets are confused what to do. Even boxers meet the requirements. It’s a farce
This happened before with the "Dangerous Dogs Act 1991" which was rushed. The law was too vague and instead of being just "that" breed it included anything that was anyway related to it. A lot of innocent dogs were "destroyed" over the 1990's because of it.
It's legislated racism. We should all be worried about what this country is coming to.

I see to many youngsters walking these dogs and some are huge.... frightening considering ive also seen large grown men pulled and dragged like nothing...look, lets face it... doesn't matter if its a teacup terrier or Godzilla...there are way to many irresponsible people owning dogs full stop let alone powerhouses like these...and yet again its the actual animal thatll suffer, unlicensed backdoor breeders to, cruel. And as far as policing goes....todays coppers aint gonna do sh**, meaning more atacks leading to a countrywide euthanasia program implemented 😢. If your responsibile and you love your dog...go and get it sorted, this should be a staple for all animal ownership anyway. To many people take animals lives for granted its got to stop
I have a large European male Doberman, because of all the media and new laws coming out my dog no longer leaves the house without a go pro on his body harness recording at all times "purely for his own protection" he has been attacked several times by dogs off lead "none were bully type breeds I might add, one was a Leonberger and the other times were Collies" and everytime the other dogs have come off worse and the owners of the out of control off lead dogs then start with..... I shouldnt have a dangerous dog and he should be muzzled even though he is on lead and I have total control and its there dog being dangerous but at the same time after giving owners warnings to get their dogs on lead before every attack "I will not stop my dog from defending himself against another dog attack"
I have a standard American Bully and like you i always walk him with his harness on , many many times is confronted with dogs off the lead some friendly some not they seem to find it funny until he defends himself.
@@sarahmorris9483same I won't let my xl off leash anymore because of the other dogs with zero recall, he's been attacked too......
He says "that breed" ...... Not a breed - a type
100,000 bully’s in the uk I’ve read ,where has this 15,000 suddenly come from
It's what the government thinks, although the American Bully club has over 100 thousand XLs registered from the UK.
Rottweilers, shepherds, dobermans are known to be nasty.
Its ALWAYS the owners fault, never the dogs....!!
Yes better ways is punishments for the owners doing wrongs and not allowing the bad owners ever to have or own any furbabys dogs of any ever again stop punishments for good brilliant fantastic owners and furbabys and please put a real xl bully or xl bully's real up stop putting up other furbabys that so ain't xl bully's at all
Yes I think nobody under 21 should be able to handle or own them because he the young aren't responsible enough
Its not an u stable breed the dogs who attcked were mistreated
The vet is so biased get someone who is at least unbiased - so unprofessional gmb
Havent seen any Proof ) She is Blind!!
Sometimes i think these owners think they have pokemon not dogs, they think its great like they way pokemon trainers are with there pokemon, its a living creature, the owners need to be blamed, a dog is not some sort of cool accessory, its a great and loyal companion
The problem is that the criminals and idiots that own the aggressive untrained XL bully's aren't going to register them 🤦🏼♀️ the only people this ban hurts are the responsible dog owners and well behaved XL bullies. I have a boxer and thankfully it won't affect us but I've worked with rescues that have had many XL bullies and they've all been great family dogs. Any big dog can be aggressive.
@@michaelalderman7896so true i hope he has all his paperwork in order just saying your dogs a boxer wont help you this will effect lots of dogs that aint even a xlbully but could be classified as one just by the government vage description
These dogs are definitely soft and cuddly until they’re not. …. When you get all those injuries people have an faces ripped off .. toddlers mauled & 20+ people killed this year. It’s just too much of a risk. Personally I would walk to other side of the road from this and all pitbulls they’re only ever aggressive.
Does matter what dog big or small can attack its the irresponsible owners, that use for weapons to look good on thinking big man
''Handful'' LOL
What makes a bad dog is either bad breeders and or bad owners, you get unlicensed, back street breeders who do not care about the welfare of the stud dogs which most likely are bad dogs, or to save on stud fees they use inbreeding eg using the dog's sons and daughters. I remember the times staffies was a craze for chavs, gangs and dealers, but I own a staffy since he was a pup, but he is loyal, loving and caring as he alerts me when i am going to have an epileptic seizure, my wife has epilepsy so he lets me know if she is due a seizure but she also has young onset Alzheimer's dementia and he lays with her if she has a bad day... but before you ask about paramedic safety he will happly allow paramedics to attend too us. yes there are bad bullies out there as i have come across aggressive bully xl's but its down to bad owners, and yes i've nearly been bitten by one but luckly i had my dog with me.
No matter what people will want to say this will carry on irrespective of any ban that will surface here.
As long as we can hear “ I can guarantee my dog isn’t able to hurt anyone”, or “just a proper training is guaranteeing that dog can be predictable at any situation”, as long we will hear a tragic news dogs involved. The question is what is purpose of those dogs? All we know that dog fight is taking a big role for it, so how on Earth those dogs can be even considered as a family pet dog ? Those type of breeds shouldn’t be created, in the first place. If they so, now all of them should neutralise, to prevent breeding. Due to poor backyard breeding, lots of them are deformed, which cause a constant pain. They cannot speak, if they in pain they can be prone to be irritated and easily. All of those tragedies : people attacked by dogs and big amounts of abounded doggies is irresponsible breeding, creating weird breeds without consideration . One more thing, stop spreading a false narrative that they are great family dogs! Statistics shows that they are simply not !!!
What we've ACTUALLY seen - and i'm speaking as someone who lived through the hardest parts of the 1991 dangerous dogs act which outlawed many dog types, including the pitbull type - is that a criminal contingent has adopted the pitbull type knowing fine well it has been considered illegal for over 30 years. This is why a proportionately high number of attacks have been by these dogs, as looking at the public incidents which were recorded, these attacks were almost all by UNREGISTERED - and therefore illegal - pitbull types (remember, in the UK, a pitbull is only a dog "type", and not a breed - staffies, American bullies... even some dogues de bordeaux can technically be classified as "pitbull type" if measured by dog sergeants). If you discount the illegal portion of the animals involved in the incidents they're far more in line with other powerful breeds (Rottweilers etc) RE attacks on humans and other animals.
@michaelalderman7896 hiya Michael - are you saying your dog was seized as a staffy/lab cross? The mad thing about the 1991 DDA act is they can technically call any breed of dog "pitbull type" if it meets the checklist. It's such a bonkers law.
Thats not a xl bully in the video look more like giant pitbull. , its a cross for sure .
Any breed, inc XLs able to take down an adult when it looses it or snaps should be looked at too. Any dog can snap, no matter how good the owner thinks their control or training is. To exaggerate my point....Not many small breeds are capable of killing someone in seconds, no matter how determined they are.
Talks the talk , However a dog is reflection of self. Cane corso , xxl muzzled and on a leash is appropriate. As if she’s challenging the outcome there have been children / deaths as a result. What an insult to those victims. you always get a handful who challenge and moan - your dogs are a nuisance an issue.
So glad to hear about this, I wish they would do that in the United States!!! I think it's going to happen soon, those dogs are linked to many deaths here in the states!!! Say what you want, those dogs are dangerous!
Who kills more? These dogs or gun owners?
Mate get a grip of yourself there's already over 300 mass shootings this year in America and your worried about some dog go ban the rottweiler and German shepard but no just the bully
@luke6949 Just to help your argument a little bit over the course of the pandemic there was over 600 mass shootings in those years; 2020: 610, 2021: 690, 2022: 640, 2023: 632* (mass shooting is 4 or more dead/injured in one shooting attack) A dog is like a child, raise and train it well and it's harmless; don't raise it at all and then there's problems but even still there are less deaths to dogs then other means of death.
