THE AMERICAN XL BULLY - Next breed to be BANNED?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 авг 2024
- 3 child fatalities in the UK in the last few years by XL American Bullies. The media is going crazy saying these dogs are dangerous and should be banned. But what is the truth?
Today Anneka meets Southend Dog Trainer Adam Spivey to chat about his statement that he put online about the America Bully being the Next Breed to be Banned.
Are all American Bullies dangerous or is this another case of bad breeding and management by individuals and the press getting carried away with sensationalising deaths by Bully breeds instead of reporting ALL dog fatalities.
Can we stop this breed being banned in time? Adam and Anneka have some ideas to share..

Rottweilers, German shepherds, Belgian Malinois,bull mastiffs are the most capable dogs in the world yet combined don't even match the number of attacks XL bullies are responsible for.
That’s right!
Its my thoughts that police dogs bite the most people.
@Lee-on6jx any dog can attack but the XL bully attacks the most
@@6ft7guy media playing you my friend to cause fear,.. covid, bad concrete, acid rain....it just goes on and on man, false made-up stories, to control the masses so we run to the government for help.. who causes their actions and lies. How easy would it be for the so-called establishment to let their "own" dogs lose and then say it is us? The government are the terrorist, not the people.
This.
A lot of these dogs are deliberately bred from bloodlines known for aggression. You see breeders claim to be ethical, to care about health and temperament and all that, and then you look in their pedigrees and you find names like Kimbo and Legion show up again and again. Kimbo was a repeatedly inbred dog whose offspring killed a number of people, including children, and Legion is his grandson, bred from two of Kimbo's offspring from the same mother. Inbreeding is rife and the results speak for themselves. They are also known for 'flipping' and turning vicious without warning, having appeared to be placid for months or years.
Yes and they're direct descendants of the bull hunting breed the Americans (as in the continent) made, when the UK was breeding the staffy to be a companion dog, the Americans were making a killer and even more aggressive killer. This is why they go for the neck and head, that's what they were bred to do with bulls.
These clowns who try to argue all dogs are equally as dangerous should be put before a a very angry XL bully and a ver very angry Jack Russell, see which one they want to approach. I suspect it'll be the little aggressive dog that may get some cracking bites in, but is highly unlikely to kill them.
People say it's not the breed but the owner, but the question is how to keep idiots from becoming owners of these dogs?!
yes, you want to train a civilization that has rape, murder, theft as to how to work with difficult dogs. I think humans need to be socialized as to how to get on with other humans before we allow us to own any deadly weapon, even a dog. That being said, do you see the skull? I was told that dogs with compressed skulls are in constant pain as there is not enough room for the brain. This was told to me by a girl whose mother was attacked two times by her own pitbull, and this is what the vet told her. They had to rehome the dog.
Yeah maybe they should be chipped and owners have a licence to own one like a gun
Licensed owners.
If you ban these dogs you’ll just get idiots buying another breed, something like a Rottweiler or Cane Corso then the amount of Rottweilers and Cane Corso’s will increase and with that the amount of attacks attributed to those breeds. Unless you ban all dogs over a certain size the same thing will just keep happening.
There is a good reason why in the UK the overwhelming overwhelming overwhelming number of attacks onhumans is by XL Bullies rather than labradors.. That reason is XL Bullies have been inbred for violence. Yes, the owners of such a breed are at best naive or morons.. Many know exactly what kind of dog they have acquired and are just thugs.. In anycase the breed must be banned.
We're surrounded by tons of these where I live ALL of them are clearly owned by people who WANT a scary, volatile dog (for intimidation or for dog fighting) - none of them have a 'love for the breed' , they've usually just been arrogant in their own ability and taken on much more than they can handle. The ban will probably be a relief for some of them. I can see both sides of the argument, but if I see a few less of these around as a result of the ban I'll be happy
a sensible answer
Do you hate the dog or THESE types of owners?
@@phrogg--6 Having a responsible owner is no guarantee of safety as generally well behaved dogs can and have flipped at any time. When the dog has the ability to kill or seriously injure then they need to be banned.
All that needs to happen is an introduction of licensing for dangerous dog breeds. A professional (such as a vet) will do a home visit and check the facilities are suitable for such a breed and also check the aptitude of the potential owner. It's still essentially a ban on certain dogs because 90% of the current owners wouldn't be given a licence but you haven't ruined the fun for responsible people. We have this system in place for shotgun ownership and it works. Total bans just make the blackmarket production a lot worse because there's no legitimate market setting good standards woth oversight.
@@not_gladgood idea but very costly to enforce and police. We have a dangerous rottweiler in our neighbourhood that's never leashed. It has attacked countless times over the last three years (including humans) and the police/RSPCA/have done nothing despite so many reports and complaints. Cant imagine them being able to crack down on unlicensed breeders honestly
The dog that killed Bella Rae literally ripped her skull apart, someone held it together knowing she had died until an ambulance had come. It randomly attacked why she was dancing jumped and literally ripped her skull apart. I understand it’s mostly breeders, people are buying to breed to make money…. It’s now a fashion accessory now and they are extremely frightening dogs.
I agree.
I've heard many incidents of dogs attacking the owner and these are different breeds of dogs. The problem with the Pitbull breed is that it has stronger biting force and a wider mouth. it's much more dangerous
@@HK-ce2ljthis isn’t a pit bull…it’s an American bully. The only “pit bull” is the American pitbull terrier. Educate yourself.
@@trinp2914 I know, I was talking about the Pit bull breed
Yes they can be aggressive my neighbours xl bullies were nice but they tried hurting my puppy so I took my puppy away from them one of them dogs was always by my side and didn’t like when the other xl got close to me yes they were sweet but the guy that brought them didn’t treat them right I showed them dogs love because when my dog chewed through my headphones I told her off but why the xl bully chewed through my neighbours headphones he punched it in the face so I feel like it never knew what love was always remember just because they look dangerous doesn’t mean they are even a Yorkshire terrier could rip you apart but because they look innocent people think that dog can’t do no bad
It's a hard one for me this one because I didnt think any breed should be banned but less than a month ago my staffy was playing with his best mate which is an xl and they have spent almost every day together since pups and out of nowhere his xl grabbed hold of my boys head and it took 3 of us to get him off and my boy had to go into surgery and have stitches in his head, chops and gums and the emotional stress hasn't really worn off yet so if a good natured xl which grew up with my staffy could do that for no reason it makes my views about this breed change as that could of been a kid
Yeah they're extremely unpredictable. Every incident I know of involving an XL was a surprise to the owner (and the other poor dog/child).
@@ewan9886 This is the issue with these dogs. Nobody believes their dog will do something untill it does. At which point, it's too late...
@@bvc9815 yeah, their temperament and physical ability make them very unsuitable for suburban everyday living imo. Perhaps in a different time when the need to defend from attackers/wild animals was there. Also they're not happy just hanging out while you do your ironing, they want to work.
These dogs need to be worked and the best type of work for this strong and aggressive dog is killing some other animal. It would be good for wild boar hunting and the like. NOT a family pet. That is about the only use for these animals.
@@bvc9815Exactly! I’m sick of all these owners saying how wonderful their dogs are. They can’t all be or the attack figures wouldn’t be so high
"The issue I'm seeing at the moment....is bad breeding"
In other words, there are such a thing as bad dogs....meaning it's not just about owners.
You don't understand breeding do you. If they're not bred correctly withing the guidelines of the UKBKC, they will gain traits that the dog wasn't originally bred for.
They've been carefully bred to not have the same instincts as say the pitbull but when back yard breeders start messing around, crossbreeding and inbreeding, that's when you get problems.
@@1pinhead84 Their point is that THOSE are bad dogs. The ones that have aggressive traits. The XL Bully
Border collie- bred for herding
Bloodhound- bred for sniffing
Lab- bred for retrieving
Pit Bull- it depends on the owner!
What have pitbulls been bred for throughout the years?? Maybe its in their name PIT BULL. You need to look up the history of the breed.
"Thats racist! You probably hate black people too!" - Pitbull owners.
Wanna differentiat between the two then mate lol rookie mistake here classifying it as a pitbull
Xl bully bred to be a family companinon , FACt

@@jameschallis4600 It's bred from a Pitbull, so what does that make it? Duh 🤔
Point of video: "Stop irresponsible breeding." 99% of comments: "No bad dogs, only bad owners."
Because it's a reality, there are Japanese Tosas that live with young children, and there are Golden Retrievers that have to be euthanised for aggressive behaviour.
Legit, american bullies are some of the worst for backyard breeding, to be honest, they're basically just glorified mutts anyways, just like doodles. It's so bad! They breed them for extreme traits, exotic, merle, pocket, xl. They're all poorly bred as far as I'm concerned.
My friend had a xl bully she had it from a puppy took it dog training was well looked after had a great home .one day it attacked her for no reason .🤔 100% the breed .
@@flipperflipper-eo2gp
What were the parents temperament like?
How many litters had the mum had previously? How well was the dog socialised as a puppy, not puppy classes, actual socialising?
How well did your friend know about the breed before hand?
The list is endless really.
It’s not just the owners it certainly does not help and a bad owner might guarantee a tragedy. But no your wrong breeds have characteristics and have pre disposition to behaving in certain ways.
I don't care what anyone says. Don't bring a shelter dog into a home with children, it's reckless and dumb.
I totally agree with this. My youngest child is 7 and I absolutely wouldn't bring a shelter dog around him. I will always get my dogs from reputable breeders no matter the breed. It just takes some research.
The dog that suffers the most abuse by far in the UK is the Greyhound. A racing Greyhound is kept in a small cage, abused and misstreated. If the don't run fast enough they are disgarded. Hundreds of ex racing Greys are rehomed and yet there is not one recorded human fatality by Greyhound. There are countless reports of Bull breed dogs, raised in a loving home for many years that suddenly turned on their owners. Tell me again how it is the way they are raised.
The problem is the average person who wants one of these dogs is usually the exact type of person who shouldn't get one.
I disagree I own a pocket bully
@@julieannbarnes2647you could kill a pocket bully with ease meanwhile fighting off a 120lb XL bully ain't easy.

@@colinc5531 XL bullies attack 90% more than rotts
Describe that 'type' of person please? then please describe the 'type' of person that may want to own a dog such as a chihuahua. I own a standard Bully (not an XL), I chose this breed for his amazing companionship, obedience, intelligence and very low energy. I can assure you, when we are on walks (always on lead may I add), its always been a non bull breed that has run over (off lead) and attacked him....x2 Yorkshire terriers, X1 retriever, x1 chihuahua. all of these dogs had no recall or appeared to have any training. Do you blame these dogs? or do you blame these owners? My Boy, just for your information, did not retaliate in any way and instead ended up with his nose torn to shreds. So please...what type of person am I?
Ban the Bully from the UK. I was attacked by a pitbull. Bullies are even more dangerous and bigger. The owners had him for not to long from a dog home and I was just walking out of my house and was attacked.
I would never allow young children near dangerous breeds, or allow them to go to their friends house if they owned dangerous breeds.
Don't need banning at all you muppet. The dog could probably just tell that you're a goon and decided to smack the ignorance right out of you.
If you ban bullys then the bad owners will get more dangerous dogs like rottweilers and will make things worse.
@@MrJeffHead the already have I know people that mixed the rottweiler with the red nose American pit bull terrier
I have been attacked by sheepdogs, labs and jack russells in my past life as a delivery driver, should we ban all those? or should we concentrate on irresponsible breeders and dickhead dog owners?
@@MrJeffHead Unpopular opinion: All of theese should be banned, including rottweilers, dobermans, german/belgian shepards, akitas, etc. And all dogs in their type. And we would live in a better, safer world.
I have said this before , the US 🇺🇸 need to have regulations on all breeder to stop these back yard breeders and make sure only responsible owner / trained owners
Totally! You fill out a ton of paperwork to be allowed to sell food, but you’re allowed to breed and sell a living, thinking animal without a proper license??? It’s so dumb! Also you should have to do a similar paperwork that you do when adopting a child for dogs, and a check to make sure you’re ready to care of it, and you’ve done you research.
Why should dogs get treated as objects to buy and sell whenever!
Maybe on a state level, but no where in the constitution does it give the federal government the authority to regulate pets. The US government already has enough illegal regulations as it is. Nice try though.
@@makeamericagreatagain356 wait so do you think that the government isn’t allowed to pass any laws that aren’t stated in the constitution?
@@morninggloom8391 Correct. Its called the 10th amendment. " The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."
@@makeamericagreatagain356 Ahh, I had misunderstood what you meant a bit, still that kind of seems beside the point?
A: The original commenter never said it couldn’t be state specific laws, just that they needed regulations.
B: By your logic you’d also disagree with stuff like having to do a test and get a license to drive, or speed limits, and while those things vary a bit state-to-state I believe all the states still have them.
Considering two little children in the USA were just ripped apart by this breed I personally think they require at minimum additional licensing if not a full out ban.
Breeding licenses and regulations should be placed everywhere. Just look at what's happening with the French bulldog
Yeah Frenchies & Bullies have become a common way to launder drug money, then start puppy farming.
If you made all those who want to own a bully XL take a compulsory IQ test then there would be some predictable results.
Not only that but make them read up on the needs and know thst love does NOT conquer all. A well loved dog can turn into a monster.
Legit, they get them just to look tough, the breeders only care about the money, they're all backyard breeders if you ask me
I own a standard bully and sadly I have to agree with you.
@@adriananic8258 there's a difference between a wel trained and a wel loved dog .
@@wildtatz nah just that it lacks the training and is being spoiled.
It is amazing to me how all the breeders know more than the best genetical scientists and say it is the breeding that is the problem!
All of the dogs in this video have had their ears mutilated. It’s an illegal act in itself and speaks volumes about the desired image. Sad.
I dislike dogs and am deathly scared of them. I cross the street when I see one, esp a bully and most of all, these XL dogs. I don't enjoy being growled at for no reason, jumped on, knocked down and humped. Dogs creep me out and I don't like being around them.
Excellent job Lois.
Thats your problem, maybe get some help.
@@sphenoidjjj why? I just avoid dogs & people. Esp bullies.
Sounds like your describing some men not dogs 😂
Since this video was posted another Bully XL has killed a girl family member in Yorkshire ! The Bully had been raised from a puppy by the family .
Yes , same reason I viewed this page. There is an alarming pattern to whats occurring in a relatively short space of time. This breed will defintely get banned, the pitbull genes are strong in this breed.
@@sphenoidjjj Pit Bulls have been banned in the UK for decades but yet there are many still at large ( often off the lead or unaccompanied ) .There are even more Pit mixes and there doesn't seem to be any appetite to enforce the dangerous dogs act until a tragedy occurs and then the police state that the dog wasn't on the banned/dangerous dog list which often sounds like their are excusing their lack of action prior to the fatality and also letting the owners of the killer dog off ! These fatal attacks hardly get any coverage on TV news now ; it is as if these attacks don't shock the nation anymore ! Another breed that has caused severe injuries is the American Bulldog and yet they are still legal .
The biggest problem is that the breed is advertised as a family dog. That's what I wanted, and the breeder told me it was so. I raised my dog from 2 months old with lots of love, and one day he decided to become extremely aggressive to strangers, and even some people he used to see everyday
@@hx1487 I have been made aware of that same situation happening with three other American Bulldogs owned by three different people. It is a heart breaking and distressing thing to happen. I also knew two really good natured American Bulldogs but sadly when certain individual dogs become aggressive then it is very problematic.
@BruceWayne-sz3th Not my dog
Getting adult male dogs from a shelter into a family with young children or toddlers is NOT a good idea, unless the owners and the children are experienced with dogs.... meaning the owners are confident and consistent with cultivating obedience and self control in the dog, while the children know how to respect the dog's personal space and the children obey their parents when told not to engage with the new dog, to mostly ignore him or have supervised time with him, where they call him and give him a treat after he comes and obeys a 'sit' command... all under adult supervision.. no play time or any other engagement with him outside of supervision... it teaches children the boundaries and it teaches the dog his boundaries. It gives him time to understand the family/pack dynamics and time to bond and trust with respect and patient love. Ideally, for new adult dog additions to a family, especially 'hard' breeds, its best if there are either no children, or older children (14yrs onward).
This on both counts its the owners fault either from caseless behaviour or lack of knowledge. Also to add to that personal i would never buy a dog from a shelter or a dog of age from someone. Because of training. I own a dog and got him at 4wks. Yes im aware that this was too soon however my point here is i got him from young and put my own training on him he's now a year old.

Not even experienced can handle an attacking pitbull
What is the test to prove someone is a responsible dog owner? It turns out, most people are not. The majority don't even want to walk their dogs. Rescues hand pit bulls out to anybody with a pulse just to keep live release numbers up in order to qualify for grants.
Facts. Better to train a well bred puppy in a family.
Why are earth would you allow a stange dog around children! These two attacks were by bullies that were not raised with Children or at least the children they were brought into. Small children around large dogs no matter the breed should be supervised at all times!
Not to mention that almost no one seems to teach children they cannot just walk up to a dog they don't know and start touching it! We work with rescue dogs that can often be reactive when out on leash, and we've had kids come running up and just reaching out to the dogs, even when we have warned the child and the parent that the dog should not be touched, there seems to be a sense of entitlement that is contributing to children being in harms way.
Iv got two XL bullies 11months and 5 months and they listen to my 2 year old daughter more then me it’s all about how you bring them up. Like my two just want to please you and play I couldn’t ask for better dogs

They took a bulldog to make them softer, slower, calmer, but pitbull still sits inside of them, you never know when pitbull drops himself in to blindness - atack, it calls "game", yesss it's what they was bred for, by the way would be great to see a video about Amstaffs.

Completely disagree. It's not just about training. If it's all about training and environment then can we train and have big cats as pets and off leed in the streets and just say to people "oh don't worry he's friendly"? No because it's about potential. Same with bears, same with Lions etc These bully breeds have so much power and strength in them that most owners that have them aren't strong enough to control them if they lose control and even the strongest people end up on their arses. It is known that questionable types purchase these dogs because 'oh aggression's cool' or I want a 'guard dog' and legitimately want them to be aggressive because again they think it's cool I'll agree to that. But, I pose this question to the trainer in this video - "If a dog you've personally trained ends up killing another dog completely out of the blue, how would you then defend its behaviour?"
That’s the thing. All dogs will occasionally crack but when these do it’s a bloody nightmare
I hope so. I can’t walk down the road without seeing one. It’s frightening. Some off lead or being led by a child. A dog has already been killed by one and another attacked on my road.
Dangerous dogs, not all dogs are the same
Some people should not have dogs! If you can't control the dog, If you can't train the dog, If you can't spend time with the dog and if you don't have room for the dog. DON'T GET A DOG! Control the breeders not ban the breed. Breeder of these dogs in questions should be license by the state. If your dog hurts or kills someone the court should throw the book at the owner and breeders. Thanks for sharing Cheers 👍🏻
Ban then all. No reason to own these dogs. People just want to scare people that's all. Get a normal dog as a pet. If you need armed police to stop a dog ur in trouble
Then we ban all the army and police dogs too? Seems excessive. Licensing is the way forward

The problem is experienced dog trainers have been killed by these dogs and people attacked in public.

Ban the breed! All dogs on leads and muzzled in public. Harsher prison sentences for those whose dogs attack others.
Lions are beautiful animals, there is a reason they are not suitable as pets. Common sense is needed here.
So many of the bully’s you show have had there ears clipped. It just shows why the owner has bought them, not for a loving companion but as a show piece of strength, power and danger. In London most of them are owned as weapons
I used to advocate for so called dangerous breeds before I owned my own dogs. Now I have dogs, I carry protection spray and avoid any large breeds that look capable of killing mine because there are too many idiots out there with these dogs. The dogs themselves are mostly sweet in nature, but the fact that they have the ability to cause severe harm or even kill humans or dogs with minimal effort is why I think they should be banned. Anyone with these dogs appears to be doing it purely for aesthetics, to make money off of breeding, or some other dodgy reason, and I’ve seen far too many dogs be attacked, unprovoked, by these breeds. It’s not fair on the dogs, or other dogs and their owners. There is no need to have a breed like this in your home unless they have a specific job to channel their energy and intellect into, the same as any other working breed.
I agree
A lot of temperament is inherited. Thats why responsible breeding is paramount. I remember hearing in the bully groups online of some dogs just snapping one day out of nowhere. I remember hearing of one guy who was a breeder and one of the dogs snapped and attacked his mom one day… dogs can have mental illness as well.
It’s true. I had an Alaskan malamute with a type of aggressive mental illness yet all the ones I’ve filmed were amazing
You may have to quote me on this (i.e. may not be accurate numbers), but one study I read a few years ago suggested around a third of dogs brought in to be trained had a health condition, and about half of those had a mental affliction which is generally anxiety or another issue like idiopathic aggression. and to ignore these and put a dog through training is so so common. THEREFOR. its not always 'the owners fault' as suggested in many threads here at all. We need good licensing and regulation for breeders, for owners and trainers too.
This is spot on. I had a micro American Bully and even though he was an absolute baby with the family members, he would just snap out of nowhere at people he had known most of his life, and who always treated him with love. He had an uncontrollable desire to fight, especially other animals. I heard his brother was the same. I lost him two weeks ago and I am still in tears
@@Animal-Watch You say that the Bullys you filmed were owned by amazing breeders, but they still had all of their ears clipped... which is an illegal practice in the UK.
So they're not natively produced, they're American imports.
And a truly ethical breeder would not give their money to an exporter who crops all of their dogs ears to make them look more menacing.
Excuses!!!
90% of the attacks are from pitbulls so its definately about the breed! Secondly, if a dog can become dangerous through neglect that alone is a reason for a ban.
Say it louder for the cheap seats!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I am not sure why they don't just have licenses for all large dogs capable of killing. Makes so much more sense to require training and licensing rather than banning.
All dogs are capable of killing. A pack of Dachsunds seriously mauled and killed a woman, there was a case of a pomeranian killing a baby, and most of the small dog cases revolve around children, where little dogs have either killed a baby or seriously injured a child on the hands or face. And it's not like breeding licenses aren't a thing, they definitely are in the US and I'm in a group that is UK-based but shares the platform with the US and many UK members have stated that there are breeders and kenneling licenses where they are.
When it comes down to it, there are just too many cracks in the whole "mandate licensing" thing just like in any system the government tries to enact and enforce. That's why illegal gun purchases, sales, and ownership is still an issue both in the US and the UK. But good breeders can weed out the bad if you tried hard enough. Flood the market with cheaper well-bred dogs, compete with the bad breeder's prices and poor quality with your better quality dogs at a cheaper rate. And training should be made cheaper and more readily available as a necessary service. Not many people are willing to give up youtube training videos that might not be accurate to pay $200-$500 for a dog training class.
Bring down the cost while upping the quality of both the dogs bred and the training they need, flood the market to flush out the bad breeders and trainers, and keep up with where your dogs go. Take it a step further and make a whole separate registry for breeding dogs aside from KC, ACK, CKC, etc. Breeders would need to apply and show health and temperament testing before being approved. Dogs and breeders that do not pass will not get their approval papers to show that their dog is worthy and that they as breeders passed a good breeders test and should not have business done with them.
Piss poor breeders will never go away, but you can make their business pool smaller and less successful. At the end of the day, it is still a form of business with a market. Let's treat it more like a market problem and it will be fixed better than it is now.
@@friendsgaming0776 I meant licensing to own a dog not just breed them. Maybe over a certain weight of dog would require license and training. Freak accidents happen with smaller dogs but plain and simple a small animal is not much of a threat in general regardless of how aggressive.
Pit bulls are deadly, but not particularly large. Newfoundlands are huge but very low in aggression.
@Friendsgaming, you can trot out all the whatabouts you want to, pointing out isolated incidents that were a one in a million chance of happening, but neither extreme outliers nor anecdotal accounts disprove statistical realities. The statistical reality is that more than two thirds of fatal dog attacks are the work of ONE breed. Nothing else compares to it.
@@bbgprocessservice5396 actually in 2015 the Golden Retriever had the highest bite record. There's literally a entire list of statics from each year. The media just so happens to inflate a lot of them and mislabels a lot of said breeds as pitbulls when they aren't pitbulls.
Game bred pit bulldogs and APBT were supposed to only be dog aggressive and not people aggressive
But some were.
It’s the good ol bell curve
Those at the margin are crazy and will bite you
When there are thousands of these animals, the amount of dogs at the margin who will bite you is significant
The breed is scatter bred that's why all of those different personalities and traits almost all the time you don't know exactly what you're getting
That's why you buy from a reputable breeder.
@@Axiomatic75 exactly
Exactly ! They are not just amstaff and apbt, but mastiffs as well but the breeders deny it. Amstaff and apbt are not man aggressive, but the mastiff breeds are. You don't want the high drive, energy and quid actions of an apbt and the size and wearyness to strangers from mastiff breeds combined
That’s what happens when you mix too many breeds together
@@wanneske1969 well said
Not everyone is qualified to own a dog
it's this type of breed, there are breeds who are scared of their own shadow and wouldn't hurt a fly, like boxers, for example
correct & not every breed is suitable for every owner.
I have been walking my two small dogs in my local area for a few years and I have been attacked two times so far. Sadly both times by the muscular breeds and sadly both times the fault was the owner's. First time I had a american staffy cross the street and attack my japanese spitzt. The owner was loading his truck and had his dog off lead out the front. Lucky for me he came running over straight away and grabbed his dog. My dog was badly bruised. Second time again a staffy, it got away from a lil boy holding it and attacked my dogs. I put myself in between (I know that is wrong) but my lil ones stand no chance with muscle breeds. I got bitten on my leg but my dogs are alive. I am so scared now and afraid to walk my dogs alone without my husband. 😣
Yeah and a Jack Russel breed killed a toddler somewhere I heard, yes the damage is more with these breeds but the people should pay the price not the dog. I mean I have a dog aggressive American Bully but he is on a secure harness that is tied to my wrist, and sometimes he gets attacked by one of the smaller breeds all I do is I pick him up and that is it, I am a responsible dog owner, my neighbors small dog bit my sister yes she was not fatally wounded but still that does not make it ok. Were your dogs barking at the dogs in any of these attack incidents? Please answer me because I want to understand something for my dog, thank you.
American bullies have a low prey drive, they're much different from pitbulls/amstaffs
@@Axiomatic75 thats why theres been more xl bullys kill people this year than any other dog in the uk, yet i bet theres not as many xl bullies than there is other breedsm so yh low prey drive
Are your small dogs yappy like most?
These breeds will be banned before long, they were responsible for at least half the dog related deaths in the UK in 2022, and even more in 2023 so far. It won't be long before they're put on the list alongside pitbulls.
They are dangerous. Not a question.
Ahahah
Ban them now, only sick mental people would want a dog like that.
I recently watched a special investigation (in Canada I think) about this breed & how the dog shelters did not admit to aggression in order to get the dog adopted. A lot of these abandoned dogs have a history that doesn't follow the dog! So unknowing people with kids are adopting these dogs, trusting that they have no history of aggression. That's a major issue. Here's my opinion: why is it people need to own a dog that was bred to fight & kill other dogs or people ? There are many many other breeds to choose from that wouldn't have as much a potential to kill. And I've see so many videos of these dogs that get loose that attack & kill innocent dogs on a leash. And I've seen videos of these dogs getting loose and attacking innocent people. It's not just bad owners either! They were bred for aggression and anyone with kids that adopts a dog trusting that it's history followed the dog is a recipe for disaster.
Why would one want to own a dog that cannot be trusted with kids left alone? All it takes is one time & your kid can either killed or mauled to the point of not having a face left.
Suggestion: Do a general search on RUclips for dog attacks & see which dogs are attacking innocent dogs leashed & people. Many of these dogs are getting out of fenced in yards, or were being walked by kids or owners too weak to handle them.
This is why the breed should to be banned bc it is impossible to figure out which owner can handle these big, strong dogs or can train it properly. And lots of drug dealers are wanting to own these dogs to protect their house and then end up getting loose & attacking innocents.
I also remember, that , in Calif. was such a surplus of pit type dogs in shelters, rebranded name PIBBLES, & adopted them out , & tho claimedbeen tested for aggression,...& ppl had them for years, & then one day snapped, & attacked . Are unpredictable
It was in 80s , rappers, drug dealers wanted big mean dogs, & mixed mastiffs, for size, & became ppl agressive,.. Original pit bulls for fighting ,.. ppl friendly, & owner had be able to get their dog from middle of fight . Back yard breeders is what we got..
Even tho are called bully types, are descended from APBT, & AmStaff,... the AmStaff was original pitbull (APBT) till was registered as AmStaff in 1936.
So the Am bully roots/ancestors, go back to original Eng pitbull pit fighting dogs !
If you think any dog breed or any dog is safe for small kids to be unsupervised with you are irresponsible and don't need to owen dog .
Well said
I sooo agree with this man - there should be a license to breed ALL animals
Yes
@Bernie Gores you dhould sterilise always
@Bernie Gores lol thats a lot of what aboutisms
@Bernie Gores chickens? 🤦♀️ How many chickens are killing children because of lack of training and proper socialisation? 🤔 Also, do you not think it’s irresponsible AF to allow your female dog to get randomly impregnated by a stray? Come on mate, give your head a wobble!
@Bernie Gores WTF are you on about 🤣
I'm working as a part time dogsitter and I had to turn down two dogs of this breed simply because I will never trust them around my children aged 2 and 6. They look ferocious.
Hi! Can you please do a video on Native American Indian dogs (not to get confused with North American Indian wolf dogs) these dogs are bred to be large hypoallergenic wolf like dogs resembling those that the native Americans may have had, anyway they are really interesting and a great fit for this channel
The trouble with these mastiff-type dogs is that some people have them as weapons, whether they admit that or not. I think the question is, why do you want a dog that looks threatening and has the physical power to kill someone?
A lady in Walmart was confronted about her obviously fake "device" pit bull. When asked what task it can perform she said it can attack.
The ADA doesn't recognize that task as a reason to bring your dog into stores and on airplanes, etc.
Pittbulls are not mastiff type dogs.
Cracking video packed full of good information. Only thing I'd add is another reason for aggression in dogs is new owners with great intentions and zero research/effort. Some new owners don't realise that socialisation is a thing, or seem to expect the dog to instinctively know the basic commands.
People need to research as best they can any form of life that they're bringing home, regardless of whether they've had one before, there might be breed traits that were missing from your last labrador. Not all dogs are the same, and a little preperation can go a long way.
Most people would not want to socialise or risk their dog with a bigger overpowering dog like this.
@@RCRM22 I disagree, most dog owners would be fine with it, but it is true that some would not. I experienced that with my old boxer, some owners would pick up their dogs or cross ditches to escape. Others would come over desperate to meet him. I understand that people want to protect their dog, but if enough people denied socialisation like that, it could create breed problems and stereotypes. That's a very extreme example that is very unlikely, most people don't actually see a breed as a big scary dog, (my first experience of a rottweiler when I was a kid was a guy socialising his dog, and he asked me if I'd interact with it, and he said "that's a 150 pound rottweiler" I replied "no it's not, rottweilers are scary, that's cute it must be a labrador" I wasn't raised around dogs obviously) other owners and another factor you could consider though, their views on amazing breeds like this could affect it getting the chance to meet other dogs and play. however if you are able to simply attend socialisation classes on a regular basis you could prevent their fears becoming a problem in terms of aggressive behaviour.
My neighbour got one three weeks ago. She must be confident about it, because she has two small kids.
Them kids still alive or they pushing up daisy's?
@@6ft7guy Still all good.
Amen to this guy on education about ANY breed! Thank you for your channel. Always do research on every dog you consider. Know it’s standard characteristics, habits, needs, physicality, life span, just everything! Even then you may get a dog that is out of control. I researched for over a year on dogs, my daughter won out and we got a shitzu (she wanted to carry it around). Worst little dog EVER. Got a rescue AM Staff…also at my daughters bleeding heart behest…BEST DOG ever…3 lab mixes later - you just have to learn the dog, learn their natural proclivities.
Update on my baby girl (half blind) AMSTAFF, I think she was in a puppy mill situation before she found us and has now been through a hysterectomy, teet removal surgery and tons of tumors…She is the sweetest thing, and I can’t imagine life without her. My point is, know you will have vet bills, you will get super attached and pet insurance MIGHT not be such a bad idea if you have a dog that has issues or is known to have issues. Sooo off topic. Just a thought.
You are a responsible man - Many people are not and think of dogs as toys or machines and have no idea how to choose a breed and train.
Children are dying and adults are being attacked and wounded by this breed.
This video is spouting nonsense. A blatant disregard for clear as day facts.
The dog breed is dangerous and isnt a pet. It's like living with a Viper.
The perfect storm of the covid pet boom, lack of training and dare I say the overwhelming demographic of its owners makes this breed too risky.
How anyone could deny this is frankly dangerous and ignorant. I would like to see the owners convicted of the crimes of their dogs, when and it will happen, the dog attacks a child then the owner should be sentenced in the same manner.
I’m
Sorry but you guys are completely wrong ,
Bread does matter a lot. That’s why us hunter use dogs with high pray drive . And why do you think you don’t hear of other dogs killing people as much
Yes what, they have just been banned here in the UK. I even wonder why people have to go to dog breeders at all; there are plenty of dogs awaiting good homes in rescue centres. Buying them perpetuates the breeding cycle, which they is very little real need of anyway. How far from the original model of a dog have these breeds become, it is not natural at all
50% of the American Bully dogs responsible for fatal attacks had the same parent which was a notorious killer.
Inbred to hell, likely to have neurological issues due to that level of inbreeding, they are a significant problem.
Unless every dog is genetically tested and considered to be diverse, you will have issues enforcing anything.
When the XL Bully kills it knows what it is doing because it very often kills children, old people and people playing with them. It's a fighting dog, bred to exploit vulnerability, it is not a pet dog.
À fighting dog my ass if you put an XL bully in the ring with a gamebred APBT he won't last 10 min they're fat pigs who can't hardly breath and have no stamina or endurance, they're just a fashion statement but not a fighting breed at all 😂
The issue with this dog is that it's a status dog. Certain people buy it to look 'hard' not because they actually care for the dog. So they wrap them in big chains and rile them up. So the dog becomes anxious or replicates its owner's energy. (and this is ignoring any bad breeding and health problems).
Ban the dog. It won't lead to suffering long term but not banning them will only lead to the EXACT same situation we have with staffies now, which is people who shouldn't have them, having them.
In reference to the 2 recent fatal attacks on a 10 year old child, and a 17 month old little toddler, they should be banned. You can jazz this breed up all you want, but they are basically a Pitbull type of dog. And because of their size they are now the preferred breed of gang members, and dog fighting. The attacks are on the rise from this breed, and I do understand that there are some responsible breeders and owners of this breed, sadly there are many more out there who are far from responsible. The American Bully XL has become popular because of the look and size, and are used to Intimidate. This is a dog that not only bites, but grabs, holds and tears at the flesh. Keep that vision in your mind, cause that's exactly what 2 dogs of this breed did to 2 children. I say ban the breed, before more children are mauled and are killed.
Now would you like to do a post on the mastiffs ripping toddlors to pieces last year unfortuantely blaming two attacks on irresponsible owners handlers isnt fair to ban a whole breed , on that primus all mastiffs , german shepards , rottweilers and moloser breads , dobermanhs should be banned also

@@jameschallis4600 ah I get you man, be better of with mastiff in my eyes 👌 I'm on waiting list for boerboel, hopefully have one start of next year cant wait 👌
They need to be banned. All of them. People who have studied basic biology know that genotype, phenotype and behaviour are very tightly interlinked. It is practically impossible to keep the physical characteristics of a breed and breed out the behaviours and traits that go with them. It is very famous the russian experiment with the domestication of the silver foxes; for unknown reasons the more domesticated the foxes would become their tails would become more curved with each next generation, something we assume is why ancient breeds which are close to wolves (huskies, malamutes, akitas etc) have curved tails while wolves dont.
I am not saying that bad owners do not have anything to do with the attacks but as with all mammals, behaviour is the product of a combination of factors with genetics being the most important.
I’ve now seen a fair amount of cane corsos in England since game of thrones made them popular. Makes me sad because cane corso need a very firm hand , always need refreshers on socialisation with both human and dog , more than most other breeds . Myself , my grandad ( memory’s as a child ) with them are some of my best memories. My grandad told me and showed me how to talk and act round them ( he in a nutshell said you have to be calm and a LEADER always ….sorry for the rant but I think the cane corso will follow at some point and that makes me so sad …I hope people research the breed before getting one because they aren’t for first time dog owners and they REALLY REALLY NEED mind stimulation and exercise….if your experience is lacking please god don’t get a cane because they WILL become boss…. I’ve never had a bully so can’t really speak on them but I hope this gets through to someone and it saves a cane from a weak owner
Yep they will replace the bully which is a terrible outcome.
The bully is a lazy low drive dog that's the point of them .
Every dog you could replace it with needs huge amounts of stimulation and won't sleep next to you on the sofa all day like a bully will .
This is going to cause more harm than good.

It's simple -- if the dog's head & jaws are above a certain size it should be banned.
I disagree, my French mastiff is amazing with everyone 🥰
It's simple, if a person is from a particular place, or a certain color of skin they should be banned. You see how that logic of yours is flawed?
@@dodo19923 My logic is...er...logical. Dogs that are specifically bred to be muscular with big jaws are mauling and killing people. Regular dogs with smaller jaws are not.
Same old same old " it's not the dog, it's the ow". This is so true. Unfortunately this type is sought after by chavvy numskulls with absolutely zero skills to raise a puppy. The topic on LBC with Nick Ferrari a few days ago was this breed. Of course there were a couple of owners who called the show to say how lovely their dogs are. The male caller sounded like a total liability who bought the dog from "a friend and his son who breed them" and when asked why he chose this breed said "for the look and the size"
If a dog does decide to attack another dog or a human being it MUST BE STOPPABLE but these dogs are not. There is no place (imho) for this type of dog in our society. The event that spawned the topic was about 2 of these that attacked a cockatoo being walked on a lead. The dogs were loose and not under the control of the "owner?????" It was said that boiling water was used to get the dogs to stop the attack. The police claimed to be unable to take any action as these dogs were not on the banned list. Had a child been attacked rather than another dog would they have said the same thing? Come on all you have, get a grip and think first.
You said it best! I have a small Pomeranian cross (he’d be dead in seconds)& I live in fear of other big dogs. Fortunately very few bully types where I live in Australia.
Dog license would be a great idea. It’s about bad owners, not dogs!
Not necessary bad people, but owners who are arrogant and/or lazy in their approach. If you adopt a dog, you should always consider what kinda household you adopt it into, and whether you have the time to socialize it and look after it initially.
These people are ignoring researching dogs and dog behavior in general.
We used to have a dog licence it's extremely difficult to police with the amount of dogs around these days
The country of Ireland requires dog owners to have licenses. I hope the UK and the USA require dog owner licenses. I think it would help stop bad owners and breeds; however, inspectors and training are needed for all breeds. I love bully breeds.
no wtf
Sorry but these dogs are killing machines and should be banned
“A bad owner - a bad dog” - this is not a way to solve the problem. The good owner - the wolf is a good dog, and if the owner is bad, сhihuahua will be angry. However, it is forbidden to hold wolves, and other wild animals require a license. So why should dogs be an exception?
I walk down the street with my american bully and all she does is want to play , when i see jack russle etc they’re always yapping off trying to bite everything that moves yet the bully is the problem.
Maybe because the russle is not as dangerous as a bullly. You are a good owner so your dog doesn’t behave badly but there are a lot of bad owners so the dogs are dangerous
This guy from Essex is bang on he’s brilliant! He’s talking sense.
How do you breed aa dog with lower prey drive if your foundation stock is all from breeds with well documented sky high prey drive?
Breed with Brit bulldog or Boston terrier
It’s called selective breeding. You select the lowest drive puppies.
you cant relly, cos people forget that a dog is a predator, they will always have some amount of preydrive. you look at small dogs and think they have no preydrive cos they live with small animals and are fine with them but chase and rip up toys... thats litterally redirected preydrive activity. trying to reduce predrive is like that, but its in a bigger package and more dangerous bite... ie you can't ever get rid of it. so train with it and be a sensible human and dont leave children alone with dogs.
Exactly what I was thinking. They're lying. This dog was bred to fight.
@@annabell3385But nobody wants to admit it

This is so wild to me because the XL Bully is a lovely dog in the states, but we don’t have that many. Pit bulls still lead the pack on dog bites and maulings, but we never banned them.. or Dogos or Cane Corsos. But, apparently, because pit bulls are banned in the UK, XL Bullies became the new thing.
One thing I would point out based on what I have seen in the US - something like 95% of dog bites are committed by male dogs. If you are considering a larger dog, go for the female.
US doesn't ban them or regulate in any way, because you have every police responder packing the capability to neutralise these animals with both lethal and non-lethal equipment.
In the UK, only a small division of our police possess the equipment to even render non-lethal repellent upon any dangerous animal...
And they're not regularly patrolling the streets 24/7.
Sry..BIG story out..dog killed female owner. MAULED face of boyfriend. Will send many here to find out about the xl.
They are not the only breed of dog to do this.... in fact if you search on Google any breed of dog it will shoe attacks on animals or humans. Why its zoned in on these dogs more because they are bull breed dogs. Perceptions are not going to change because the media get the scaremongering stories and spin them over and over. A st bernard dog killed a toddler a few months back the media wrote about it once and dropped it. When these dogs do anything its spotlighted..are there thick f*ckers buying them? Yes! Is the breeding that dog comes from an effect? Yes! A well bred of any dog with the right training and upbringing will be a pet for life.

Lol some people are willing risk there lives to prove a point to others for nothing, wonder if she can have the courage to lay in a pin with 12 pitbulls if they are so sweet and “ it’s how you raise them” or whether their instinct will kick in and maul her to death.
They are not pitbulls
Every breed that falls victim to fashion always loses out.
The biggest problem is the british government doesn't care, they just see another breed to ban . In the video you mentioned the dog licence i agree that it is time to bring it back but have it properly inforced and anyone caught without their dog being un licenced be banned from ever owing another dog, I believe that all dogs should be kept on a lead whilst being walked and properly trained in obedience but not enough people are putting in the time with socialisation and training to get well balanced dogs .
Sadly only licences will get people to value dogs and not abuse them. It can only be necessary for specific, powerful breeds

Ain't no mastiff in them. How many people have Tibetan mastiffs killed again? 0
It's not about bad dogs it's all about non responsible dog owners who don't understand that they carrying a dangerous weapon and killing machine if needed not a normal bet
I'm a Bully XL owner n I tell others "large breed owners responsibly is the same Responsibly as a fire arms owners in the wrong hands both can injure, maim or kill!"
Same kinda folks who would have their hands full (with issues) with a much smaller (and easier) breed. No common sense. Selfishness. Ignorance.
Well bred XL bullys are not weapons, they're companions. Badly bred ones are weapons, just the same as any other badly bred dog.
That's why they should be banned. Because it's impossible to select people who should own rather than banning the breed wich it's easier.
It's not even about the breed, it's specifically the owner. A dog that comes from good breeding, that isn't taught correctly how to behave is STILL just as dangerous.
This breeding license should be worldwide, that's an excellent idea
Hopefully they get banned
It's not the dogs it's the owners I'm a dog owner and all dogs should be licensed as they used to be.
I don’t understand why people blame the owner for the Dog’s behavior when it’s actually just the dog.

Dogs need love because of past relationships with their former owners.

What people don’t understand about Animals is before there was such thing as pets all Animals were dangerous towards Humans and other Animals.

dog regardless of breed into his home and left it unattented with a child and your question is why do people blame the owner ,come on now can you really ask that
@@jameschallis4600
Dogs attack their Owners all the time so it doesn’t matter if the Owner left the Dog unintended it’s going by it’s Wolf Instincts to kill.
It's interesting seeing the video clips show examples of behaviour that Adam (being interviewed) keeps having to say STOP doing (see "cute" clip with baby and presenter firmly hugging dog, wrapping around it's neck).
People cannot be trusted, and these dogs often attract the wrong kind of owners. The dog needs banning.
100% facts 🎯
Then they will just find another breed to make them look tough.
So if the issue are the breeders, then doesn't it make sense to ban the breeding? I don't get how this guy can say that this breed has a massive issue with breeders making them too dangerous, and then thinks it shouldn't be banned. Unless he wants all dog breeding to be banned? I mean, I would support a license for all breeding, but this dog breed is still able to and will kill people if things go wrong. Most breeds at worst bite you, it's very rare for other breeds to kill, so why take the risk of letting bad breeders breed these killer dogs?
I was a skeptic before getting my Diesel who is an xl bully. I educated myself and took the appropriate steps, hand fed him for the first six months. He never got a free meal and always reward for work. He comes everywhere that dogs are allowed, and socialized with every possible human that would give him the time, which was surprisingly almost every we encountered. He has the basic training and it is an on going process.He is very gentle and shows it when he encounters children and he immediately lays down and very gently will show them affection. I fully believe the problems come from Bad owners who are completely irresponsible, and should be flagged to never own and animal. Banning doesn't work actually will just make the problem worse.
Do you think compulsory training will help as I agree with you 😉 but when I see a 12 yr old holding one I laugh as I know she cannot hold even a pocket so its irresponsible of the adult as well
@@vernonalexis704 yes I agree letting any person who isn't cable of holding the dog is irresponsible as an owner. Although the dog needs to know that the 12 year old is still its leader and follow commands regardless of age or size, and this is where a lot of issue start when the dog believes it's superior. People give them an inch and these dogs need definite leadership or they will steam roll you and then rules ....lol. Compulsory training will just enforce this leadership and the bonds as well. it should be done daily and whenever you can take the opportunity.
Read the comment below "and out of nowhere his xl grabbed hold of my boys head". It just takes one incident .... time and place, who knows? But the the breed is a ticking time bomb.
@@danstvguy I was attacked by a german shepard as a child, just finished walking him and I turned to go in the house and he jumped on me like a rabbit. Bit the heck out of me, so I personally believe any dog is capable of snapping. I also believe animals will give some warning which humans miss just before they snap. Problem with Bully breeds they are big and can definitely inflict fatal damage. I still feel owners need to be very diligent and aware with these dogs, their capabilities, and warning signs, which they cant ignore.
No sorry banning them stops idiots buying them therefore does work.
It is the BREED and anyone saying different are uneducated about the Breed. We have had many attacks by that breed that has killed people in the USA and the dogs WERE NOT TRAINED to be killers by their owners as they were kept as pets only. So STHU it is about the owner as people don't know their A** from a hole in the ground about the breed.
Sorry but you are wrong 😑
@@Animal-Watch You are going to tell a person who watches the news in her state where those dogs DID KILL people. I suggest you learn to NEVER again tell a person that KNOWS what they are saying they are wrong as it is obvious you KNOW NOTHING except you own little world.
All dogs can bite but when one of these starts they like to finish the job and are extremely powerful, this is why it never ends well.
@@helenmelon6780 No not all dogs attack and the attacks in my state which have been MULTIPLE and yes killed children and elderly women have been the Pit bull or mixed american bull. Stop trying to make excuses for these breeds. I have had enough of the refusal to admit about these breeds by people are DANGEROUS. You tell me what other breeds have attacked multipe times and killed people go ahead I will wait. YOU CAN'T.
@@tamaragonzalez2227 WTH I actually agree with you, why are you attacking me, I said ANY DOG CAN BITE but these breeds are much more powerful and intense, wow whose side are you on? Read my other comments and you will see I agree with you.
Adam Spivey speaks of creating regulations for getting permission to own a dog, breed dogs et.c. as if the state knows better than the people it serves and in this video this position is undisputed.
How about if your dog kills someone, you get life in prison for murder? If your dog hurts someone, you get sentenced as if you did that damage? And if you abandon your dog, you are fined whatever it costs for the dogs shelter, food and socialization. You abuse your dog, you get sentenced the same as if you abused your child. People will quickly realize what's up when there are consequences to this bullshit rather than trying to find loopholes in regulations or pass regulations and then again do the same bullshit.
Re banning breeds, I can't see the point. You can create a new breed that is just as or more aggressive by just finding two mutts with those traits.
Sweet dog. God protects you both. Amin🍓 وَٱللَّهُ خَلَقَ كُلَّ دَاۤبَّةࣲ... Allah has created every [living] creature from water. And of them are those that move on their bellies, and of them are those that walk on two legs, and of them are those that walk on four. Allah creates what He wills. Indeed, Allah is over allthings competent. (Quran) وَمَا مِن دَآبَّةٖ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ إِلَّا عَلَى ٱللَّهِ رِزۡقُهَا... And there is no creature on earth but that upon Allah is its provision, and He knows its place of dwelling and place of storage. All is in a clear register.(Quran) PS : Allah is the name of God in arabic . The arabic jewish & christians arabs they say Allah too . In the arabic bible it is written Allah. Only 18% of Muslims are Arabs but 82 % they are Muslims but not Arabs so the majority of Muslims are not Arabs .& the arabic word islam, it means submission (Submit to God) which is the religion of all prophets since Adam including the messengers Moses, Jesus and Muhamad peace and blessing of Allah be upon Them all .They have One God, one Religion & one straight path (the pure Monotheism). إِنَّ هَـٰذِهِۦۤ أُمَّتُكُمۡ أُمَّةࣰ وَ ٰحِدَةࣰ وَأَنَا۠ رَبُّكُمۡ فَٱعۡبُدُونIndeed this community of yours (your religion) is one single community(is one religion), and I am your Lord, so worship Me.(Quran)مَا كَانَ إِبۡرَٰهِيمُ يَهُودِيّٗا وَلَا نَصۡرَانِیࣰّا... Abraham was neither a Jew nor a Christian, but he was one inclining toward truth, a Muslim [submitting to Allah ]. And he was not of the polytheists(Quran) إِنَّ مَثَلَ عِيسَىٰ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ كَمَثَلِ ءَادَمَۖ... Indeed, the example of Jesus to Allah is like that of Adam. He created him from dust; then He said to him, "Be," and he was. (Quran)وَإِلَـٰهُكُمۡ إِلَـٰهࣱ وَ ٰحِدࣱۖ لَّاۤ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنُ ٱلرَّحِیمُAnd your God is one God. There is no deity [worthy of worship] except Him, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful.(Quran)مَّا یَفۡعَلُ ٱللَّهُ بِعَذَابِكُمۡ إِن شَكَرۡتُمۡ وَءَامَنتُمۡۚ...What would Allah do with your punishment if you are grateful and believe? And ever is Allah Appreciative and Knowing.(Quran) Thanks wich you the best from heart🍓
The point is to save people from being torn apart by animals. Breed bans work. When they were common dogfighting was much harder to get away with and daily attacks by pit bulls did not happen in residential areas. Cops knew what a yard of pits meant, unlike now when gangs have yards of pits and call it a "rehabilitation training center." As if.
@@annabell3385 Then my question is (again), once you ban this breed, what do you do when people have brought out aggressive traits of another breed and you have the same problem?
My daughter’s Westie was attacked, and almost killed by one of these beasts. The owner’s reaction: “He’s so loving. He’s never shown agression before.” Famous last words. And, the owner’s refuse to pay the vet bills. Ban these monsters, and the breed!
anyone that mutilates a dogs ears and puts a fake curb chain on them should never be allowed near a dog let alone own one
I totally agree with this guy regulation and licence for large dogs
It’s 2022 and people still think that certain dog breeds are to blame? It’s whatever circumstances the dog may have been brought up in that are to blame. Bad/no training, dog fighting training, abuse. Any dog no matter the breed would be affected by this. Same as any human who may have been abused, trained to kill , treated less than human, etc, when pushed into a corner, can very likely lash out. It isn’t a case of breed/breeding, I believe it’s a case of proper care,training and morality, or lack there of.
Exactly, thank you! Try entering my garden without being invited, I guarantee you that you will be my three Labrador dogs dinner that night, meanwhile my American Bully would try to break up the fight for sure.
Dog carer here. I completely disagree. Every single act of dog aggression has come from bully breeds. All of these dogs were from loving families some of which I knew personally. They attacked purely out of jealously. The problem is with the potential to damage or kill so easily if they flip out. I don't hate bully breeds but I will avoid them and I refuse to look after them because of the damage they've caused.
If not raised right, they are to blame...very sad but true.
@@lullylew9083Thank you! The voice of reason
RIP Bella 😔🙏
When a breeder asks what is your budget alarm bells start ringing. I’ve come across a lot who only want to see how much money they can get out of you!
I love this breed and hope they don’t get dragged down by irresponsible people!
The whole bully thing is a money grab
As a breeder, most do this because our time gets wasted A TON from people not being able to afford prices. Definitely go to a reputable breeder
@@aubreekane9439 When you advertise a pup for sale put a price tag on it, then there’s no confusion.
@@willis8281 have you looked at many adverts for xl bullys there normally listed as a group and each pup is priced different due to colours etc or they run on picks you pay more money for first pick etc , its the same with frenchies look for a frenchie and in the advert will be dogs pf all different prices
@@jameschallis4600 if you could you point me in the right direction I’d be great full. I’ve been looking on instagram and haven’t seen any advertised with prices. I’m determined to find the right XL bully for my next family pet but I’ll only buy from a breeder I trust and get a good vibe from.
Already get banned, it is a monster.
I am cat owner, house cat can attack but never caused casualties.
If it a different cat like Tiger or Lion then I am a cat food.
I grew up with springers when I moved out I got a xl male as my first dog I bought him from a pup he’s my best mate and so much easier to train and listens so much better then any springer I’ve had growing up there an amazing breed it really boils down to the owner an how they treat the dogs
It’s also over breeding
@Mj Ch ur silly man
Instead of banning. They should require owners to have licenses. That entail temperament tests. No owner/breeder will invest this kind of money into the breed. If it’ll get taken away later for bad training later on.
Absolutely vile dogs .seen way to many attacks .a licensed needed . unfortunately i know people that have trained X bullys had them from good breeders still attacked .
Most bs comment I've seen in a long time. They've been bred to be family dogs, it's an amazing breed.
@@Axiomatic75 sorry they didn't get bred as a family dog .not sure where that's from . They come from the Pitt family actually working dogs .they now have been turned in to family dogs.
@@flipperflipper-eo2gp They absolutely did get bred as a family dog. They're great with kids and people they don't know, absolutely lovely dogs who love to cuddle. They had their aggression/prey drive bred out intentionally. The only way I see one of them turn aggressive is if they're abused by their owner but that is true for every breed. I've been around many american bullies recently as I'm looking for a puppy and I have only met amazingly friendly dogs. They are very, very different in temperament from pitbulls (who can be lovely dogs as well if raised/trained properly but have a high prey drive).
@@Axiomatic75 this is not true they got bred for working not family dogs .this is misinformation .they also are not good with children .
The reason some are bad is because there owners treat them like there pit bulls when there just dogs who wanna chill with there family
This breed has finally been banned from next year onwards. They are a menace where i live in London, with owners not being able to control them. They are so powerful that even when on leash, they pull their owners around everywhere. When I see these bull dog or mastiff looking breeds I always move away well in advance. Especially with bulldogs, I don't buy the 'it is the owner and not the breed' claim. DNA plays a big role in their behaviour. This has been proven in the USA where many pitbull owners (XL Bully relative) claimed their 'little angel was the most loving dog ever', until one day it went psycho and killed someone. They are known to suddenly 'snap' like that, yet these so called 'dog experts with influence', keep covering up this fact, and risking the lives of innocent people.
The majority of people who own these breeds are not looking for a 'loving companion', but a weapon to intimidate others with, but will lie to others about their motives.
Exactly what I was thinking. Dog license for EVERY breed. Even a chihuahua can be difficult to manage. A Labrador can be food obsessed and bite.
You forgot cats, hamsters and rats.
@@nieczerwonyHow many people were mauled by cats, hamsters and rats?
