[QUOTE="Which Tyler, post: 1145864, member: 73592"] Yeah, I don't know any, but TBH, it was always surprising that they weren't banned from the off. To my understanding (very limited, happy to be wrong) they're basically a supersized Pit Bull; with normal-sized Pit Bulls already being banned. ETA: from wiki (so salt and all that, but generally pretty reliable about easily found stuff) "The XL Bully was responsible for over 50% of the deaths caused by dogs in the UK in the period between 2021 and 2023" And "The [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Pit_Bull_Terrier']American Pit Bull Terrier[/URL] (APBT) was the foundation (parent breed) used to create the American Bully. One particular APBT strain was crossbred to create a specific, stockier, physique that breeders originally misrepresented as purebred American Pit Bull Terriers. ... Eventually, enough breeders agreed that these dogs were disparate enough from American Pit Bull Terriers that it warranted them admitting that they were a different breed altogether" So yeah, a supersized variant of a banned breed.
