A vet has cleared up what the American XL bully ban means for owners of the dog
After a spate of attacks involving XL bully dogs, the Primer Minister announced plans for the dogs to be added to the banned breed list.
"Although we don’t know full details, we do know they plan to allow responsible dog owners to keep their ‘American XL bully’ dogs through a registration scheme. This means dogs can remain with owners, as long as certain rules are followed and the dog is not decided by the courts to be ‘dangerous’. Once the ban is implemented , owners will be given time to meet any Government requirements. However, in the meantime, there are some things that owners can do.
"Only report a dog if you are concerned about their behaviour, simply owning ‘American XL bully’ dogs does not need to be reported to the authorities at this time."
