Definitely. The very saddest part was the realisation of my friend that maybe Luna is potentially dangerous. For such a lovey dog to be a threat really highlights the issue.

Despite my earlier messages (I'm very much pro the ban from previous experience) i had a very sad incident yesterday. Have got very friendly with a guy, really rough around the ages but good hearted and has a cross breed, Luna. She's the same age as my dog and they've been best buddies since...

In hindsight I should have done more than mouth off. I haven't seen him before or after but he and his dog are clearly a risk. I think if I do see him again I'll try and pay a bit more attention to him and investigate reporting his behaviour. Witnesses were a lot more shaken than me and I'm sure...

But it's very unlikely a staffy could kill a human. All dogs have potential to lose their nut for whatever reason. There will always be awful and tragic incidents involving even small dogs. But Bully XLs aren't remotely normal. And I agree about owners. There's always going to be bellcheeses who...

But a Labrador (or Doberman or staffy etc) isn't a Bully XL. There's no place for them in our lives. Just like we don't have pet tigers and lions. You cant just bundle them all up as dogs. They're dangerous animals.

Feels like quite an Americanisation of liberty. I want it so I'll have it. If they're outlawed I do feel terribly for owners who have dogs that they love, but a dog that is heavier than a human being, trained to fight/kill and can literally rip a human to shreds has absolutely no part to play...

I have run ins with Bully owners all the time. There's lots in Bristol City Centre. Just last week one said to me 'wait until we see you on your own'. We were passing on a bridge, my dog 10kgs and on a short leash, his a 60kg beast going absolutely spare. He was telling me to keep my dog under...

I don't understand why anyone would want to own a dog so big and potentially dangerous. Just doesn't make any sense.
