Banned breeds living in UK

http://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/441952/EXCLUSIVE-More-than-2-300-banned-dangerous-dogs-allowed-to-live-in-the-UK

Heavily biased article.

Well it is the Express Caryll, they aren't renowned for their unbiased views

Trouble is that pit bull 'types' are grouped under those banned breeds and take up the vast majority of dogs on the exempt list. These pit bull types are often just staffy crosses.

What they're missing is that the 'exempt' dogs have had extensive temperament tests. They are no danger to the public!

Exactly. We've had a couple of people on here before, who've had staffy crosses that have been targeted as being 'pit types' and have aimed to get their dogs on the exempt list. There has been nothing wrong with them in relation to temperament.

becasue they was breed to look like an banned breed doesn't mean they are gosh we live in an stupid world

Yes, there are some stupid people out there!

Exactly! This is what I find the hardest in work.. dogs that are quite clearly ebt x staff or lab x staff are PTS daily as type because of the bloody ridiculous measurement guidelines.. just makes no sense what so ever.
