UKs XL Bully Ban: A Growing Crisis
The UKs 2024 XL bully ban, mandating muzzles, neutering, and insurance, has led to overcrowded private kennels housing hundreds of aggressive dogs. Despite the ban, attacks and fatalities have surged, with at least six deaths since 2018. Kennel owners report increased calls during holidays, with severe injuries on the rise. Families of victims, like Morgan Dorsett, advocate for stricter owner accountability. The bans first year saw kennel costs skyrocket from £4 million to £25 million, with 85% of seized dogs returning home post-court. Officials warn of worsening attacks as pre-ban pups mature, emphasizing the need for smarter, long-term solutions beyond fences.
