I know this is a long post but it’s been on my mind all weekend .

You have a Ferrari & a fiat 500 .
Yes, the Ferrari is a lot faster, louder and more powerful than the fiat , however they’re both absolutely capabale of harming or killing someone if driven irresponsibly. The key and frankly only relevant difference behind both vehicles, is the person driving them.

Enlighten me how this is different to the ownership of a certain breed of dog? Anyone who thinks I’m putting say a chihuahua into the same bracket as a mastiff - please don’t , Of course I’m not doing that, I’m simply saying there are countless examples of the same context XL Bullies have been put into this weekend. It’s all about the handler / owner and how they train, breed, nurture & use them.

Do the government ban fast cars and class them as “dangerous”? No. They ban dangerous drivers. Does the government put whatever measures they can in place to ensure these vehicles are driven responsibly?

I’m not trying to take away how devastatingly awful and heartbreaking those attacks were. But I think we need to start looking at the owners not the breed . Banning breeds has never changed anything !

The XL bully has been responsible for a number of recent attacks, including one that led to the death of a man. | ITV News Meridian

its an uncertain and worrying time for all responsible xl bully owners indeed and absolutely gutting for us after all the time and energy we have put into them over the past 6 years

Everyone knows you only get a powerful dog if you are a confident handler these dogs aren’t first time pets but sadly because of their beautiful colours and amazing structure they have become a fashion accessory

The country is mobbed with bullies who do not have a garden or suitable spaces to exercise
Licensing have ignored Bully Breeders applications to be licensed breeders leaving only the option to buy from ‘backstreet breeders’ this has lead to imported American blood to mix with what was left of the pitbull blood still here in the UK due to the rubbish DEFRA system

Banning these dogs is NOT the solution & muzzling and preventing these dogs from exercising is just going to create more risk of dogs breaking out and going on a frenzy

Before ‘Lockdown’ only experienced dog owners owned American Bullys but ‘Lockdown’ encouraged people to get a dog and go for long walks

This is when the demand went up and so did the price with no thought put into the breedings in regards to temperament or structure only the price tag and the pretty colours they could produce

What an emotional week it has been as this breed is my favourite by far and I am the handler of these dogs here at Animal Basics if I can’t have these dogs I feel will have no purpose here anymore
We also are at risk of having pocket bullys, staffys and any other ‘bully type’ included on the ban

My 7 and 5 year old hear the news and they are worried what will happen to their sweet innocent Reigny and it absolutely breaks my heart

The good ones should get a get out of jail free card no need for “testing” or a muzzle!

I believe that the XL bully is a kind, beautiful natured breed that loves children and people in general, and are very loyal and loving pets.

This is Ellee, with her eight-stone XL bully, Costa. She trusts the 'big softie' so much that she lets other people's children pet him. He's never attacked anyone and is very gentle with them. Amid calls for the breed to be banned, she is urging people not to 'bully her bully'.

Ellee said: "I have been around a lot of XL bullies and they are the most loving dogs. It is the way the owners raise these dogs and it is on the owner."
