The owner of two XL bully dogs has said she would rather go to jail than have her pets taken away.
Does she think she get’s to take the dogs to jail with her?
Aichaa also said her five-year-old daughter was nervous around the breed, having been bitten by a friend’s XL bully, but still had a strong bond with Zaviour.
Glad to see her priorities lie with her dogs and not her own daughter.
Edit: I shouldn’t have to say this, but I was being sarcastic.
Zaviour?
Please what fuck?
"It’s ridiculous. I understand they’re big dogs, they’re strong, and they could cause a lot of damage, but it’s down to the owners of the dog, because any dog is capable to bite and attack and hurt somebody.
Maybe they should be rated on a spider scale instead 🙄
Would you pet and keep this tarantula?
Tarantulas are harmless

I’m a big 6’1" man, and generally a lover of dogs, but I’m exactly the same. I once had a massive German shepherd barrel up to me at full tilt, no owner in sight, and launch itself into my belly. It was being friendly, as it happens, but that’s hardly much comfort when a 30kg bundle of muscle and claws hurls itself at you at a full sprint.
The owner, when they materialised a few moments later, was a middle aged woman who chuckled about how “he’s a big softy, he just wants attention”. Like, sure, but it would have been small comfort if I’d been a 10 year old child or something. Keep that “lovable scamp” on a fucking lead if you can’t keep them to heel…
No reason we can’t do both. Dog owners should have to hold more legal responsibility for their dogs (and the same for all animal keepers really), especially when they cause actual harm. Banning breeds bred specifically for aggression is also sensible when they are identified.
On the other hand, whenever you hear or see a headline of “(dog) attacked and maimed (someone)”, the (dog) usually comes from a small select group of dog races. Or did you ever hear “Poodle killed baby”?
Yes, the main problem is the owners. But certain owners attract certain kinds of dog races, and it is not always a smart or healthy match.
Trust me, that’s an unnerving experience for people of all sizes. Always stand your ground though, and loudly shout “NO!”. Dogs generally won’t attack a full-grown human unless they’re trained attack dogs, or if the person runs. When you run it activates the dog’s prey drive, and then all bets are off. When you stand your ground, they second guess themselves. We appear to be twice as large as dogs from the dog’s perspective, because we stand on two legs. So even if it’s a dog that outweighs you, it’ll perceive you as larger as long as you don’t run.
Happened to my son when he was about 7 . Owners shouting “don’t worry he’s just being friendly”. While son literally pissed his pants.
Life long hatred of dogs
You don’t have to lose your dogs. You just have to keep them muzzled in public. And lose their testicles, I guess

This is the best summary I could come up with:
Since 31 December 2023, it has been against the law to sell, abandon, breed from or give away an XL bully, or have one in public without a lead and muzzle.
She sees herself as a responsible XL bully owner, does not take their leads off in public, and they are currently undergoing muzzle training, though the dogs are finding it difficult to adapt.
Aichaa also said her five-year-old daughter was nervous around the breed, having been bitten by a friend’s XL bully, but still had a strong bond with Zaviour.
"Clear guidance has been published on the action that owners need to take - with a transition period running until 31 January 2024, allowing those who wish to keep their dog to apply for an exemption scheme.
“This guidance also sets out strict conditions on XL bully types which must now be met - including that owners cannot sell nor exchange their dogs from this date.”
The breed joins the American pit bull terrier, the Japanese tosa, the Dogo Argentinos and the Fila Brazileiro on the banned list.

Oh god are we bringing all the pearl clutching bullyxl bullshit over from the uk subr*ddit? Brilliant.
I knew it was too good to be true, being able to read news that was aggregated in a half decent way without tabloid mince dumped everywhere.
