Home Secretary Suella Braverman announced her intention get the dog breed banned
The Home Secretary has announced her intention to get the dog breed, American XL Bully, banned in the UK. Suella Braverman has pushed for a ban on the breed, claiming the dogs are a “clear and lethal danger”, especially to children.
There are currently four banned breeds of dog in the UK: the pit bull terrier, Japanese tosa, dogo Argentino and fila Brasileiro. The dog is not recognised as a specific breed by the Kennel Club, meaning it could be hard to define and a ban could inadvertently outlaw a range of other dogs. His view is mirrored by the Dog Control Coalition, which argued that the Dangerous Dogs Act - which has focused on banning specific types - has coincided with "a troubling increase in dog bites and fatalities".
However, a person guilty of an aggravated offence could be liable to imprisonment not exceeding six months or a fine, for a summary conviction. A conviction on indictment could mean that owners could ultimately face up to two years in prison.
