Those who want to keep their dogs will have to register them with the exempt list, and will then be forced to comply with strict requirements
The exact date American XL Bully dogs will be banned in the UK has been confirmed after new rules were passed.
Dogs more than a year old on January 31 must be neutered by June 30 next year, while those less than 12 months old must be neutered by December 31 2024. Owners without a certificate of exemption will face a criminal record and an unlimited fine if they are found to be in possession of an XL bully as of February 1, and their dog could be seized.
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak had described XL bullies as a “danger to our communities” when he promised to instigate a ban following a spate of attacks involving the dogs over the summer, but said that work needed to be done to define the breed. Earlier this month, a woman was injured after she was attacked by her own American XL bully in Norfolk.
