Skyrocketing Dog Attacks and Police Response Post-XL Bully Ban
Since the ban on XL bully breeds in the UK, police have destroyed over 800 dogs and reported a significant increase in dangerous dog incidents. The costs of kennel maintenance have surged to £25 million annually, placing considerable stress on police resources. Victims like Lisa Willis, who suffered a horrific attack, advocate for stricter penalties for irresponsible dog owners. Authorities are calling for legal changes to better manage circumstances around dangerous dogs while safety remains a top priority.
