A large dog, suspected to be an XL Bully, was Tasered multiple times by police after allegedly killing another dog in a Nottingham garden. The incident occurred on Dec. 30th, 2023, in Ashwell Gardens, Hyson Green. Officers used rifles and riot shields to contain the aggressive dog before eventually securing it in a wheelie bin. A man has been charged with being in control of a dangerous dog.

An XL Bully-type dog stubbornly resisted being repeatedly Tasered as dozens of police swarmed a Nottingham garden after it allegedly killed another dog. Officers armed with rifles and riot shields were among police called to an address in Ashwell Gardens, Hyson Green, at 11.48am on Monday, December 30. The muscular dog, which has the appearance of an XL Bully, was filmed standing beside the smaller, black, apparently dead dog in a front garden.

The video shows officers containing the pet before firing a Taser and wrapping a pole hook around its neck. Despite being electrocuted, the dog manages to briefly stand back up while wagging its tail as police try to haul it into a wheelie bin. Nottinghamshire Police said the dog was later taken away and remains in secure kennels while it is assessed to determine its breed. The force could not immediately confirm whether it was an XL Bully. Following the incident, a man has been charged with being in control of a dog dangerously out of control, causing injury. Shaun Coke, of Ashwell Gardens, has been released on bail and is due to appear at Nottingham Magistrates’ Court on January 23. As part of his bail conditions, the 46-year-old is not allowed to be in possession of any dog in a public place. A police spokesperson said: 'Police were called to an address in Ashwell Gardens at 11.48am on Monday after a dog was attacked and killed. The larger of the two dogs was contained in a front garden by officers and Tasered. It was later taken away and remains in secure kennels pending further assessment to determine its breed.
