Quote from an owner,""Sadly, come the 1st January a lot of these poor dogs might not be with us and it's all due to being judged for how they look."

 

No, you stupid ***, it's based on the killing and maiming which has been caused by these dogs, nothing to do with appearance.

So I wonder how many dog attacks in Scotland will now be necessary before they also ban them. Once again their hatred of England forces a contrarian folly.

This is very much a 'wait and see' episode' and I pray the Scots are correct.

Bully XLs will only be euthanised if the owners refuse to comply, or can't comply with the new laws.  They've had plenty of notice

It is not simple to ban dogs that are not of a specific breed.

Drunkard apologised to my partner. His dog jumped over a low wall. Three neighbours ( gels) came up and cuddled the dog and said they were witnesses. so his wife got him to do the right thing.

but what about the kids passing?.

As my bus pulled out of the bus station yesterday I spotted in an adjacent bus a woman with one of these dogs sitting on the seat next to her.

In my book, any dog on a bus seat is a no-no, let alone one from a ferocious killer-breed.
