Good ban. Idiots of the "it's never poochie woochie's fault, all dogs are good boys" should be thrown to a pack of the worst pit bulls, IMO.

I don't think it's unreasonable to require a license for a dog over a certain size of head/jaw or something. Requiring they be neutered and kept securely leashed in public is a good idea.

A big pitbull lost it in the local park about 18 months back, tore up and killed another dog and threatened to attack some families and children. Park had to be evacuated and the police turned up and had to shoot him because he was ready to gently caress up animal control when they arrived.

This is ostensibly part of Britain too, so you know how loving bad it has to get before armed cops get called out.

Any dog can flip, but when a Jack Russel or a spaniel goes psycho killer they can barely get their mouth around an ankle let alone crush your skull in their jaws.

Have you guys heard about this? Apparently the UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has vowed to ban the controversial Bully XL breed, saying the dogs were "a danger to our communities" and would be banned by the end of the year.

A dog's temperament and behavior are influenced more by upbringing and training than by its breed.

What are your guys thoughts?

Any animal capable of grave boldly harm to a human should not be legal to have as a pet.

UK owners of existing American XL bully dogs face new rules but no cull

The UK’s chief veterinary officer has stressed there will be an amnesty before a ban on American XL bully dogs, after an expert said the breed was behind almost half of all attacks on humans and dogs killed since 2021.

An amnesty for XL bullies would mean existing animals were not culled, but owners would be required to register and keep them leashed and muzzled in public, Christine Middlemiss said.

I do think this issue is a bit of misdirection and distraction by the Tories.

I’ve always found the cognitive dissonance of anti-gun leftist pitbull owners/advocates to be amusing. All your anti-assault weapon arguments should apply to pits as well. Restrict/regulate both because the universe of people who would get someone killed with a gun and fail to train/control a potentially violent dog is a circle.

But nah, their babies could not possibly be considered dangerous weapons.

These dogs are a menace and right to be banned. Getting them off the streets and into muzzles is really the right call. Only thing I really worry about taking the kids to the park is someones 70kg, terminally insane and psychopathic dog getting off leash.

For reference in the last twelve months, these dogs have made up less than a fraction of 1% of dogs in the UK, but have caused 75% of the fatal dog attacks.

I’m surprised some people argue that it’s not okay to ban certain breeds of dog. No sane person would be against banning the ownership of some types of animal - say, wild or endangered animals.

Arguing that it’s just a type of dog is like saying a California Condor is just a type of bird, and I can own a pet cockatiel, so logically I should be able to own a condor, right?
