The horrific situation about American XL bull dogs has shocked the dog world. We have invited our friend Debbie Connolly to join us for a special Facebook live on our page on October 4th at 7pm BST 11am PDT to discuss the situation and talk about banned breeds. This is a tragic situation but I hope Debbie will share some clarity on the situation.

But at the same time, we need to understand that some bites/near-bites are more serious than others. As this poster designed by Dr. Yin and illustrated by Lili Chin shows, there are varying levels to the severity of a dog's bite.
