Your analogies just do not compare at all with the situation no matter how hard you try. No-one here is a hater; I have always had dogs, I love dogs. There's a huge difference between dogs that are bred to do one thing and then taught to be something else (Alsatians - as in German Shepherd, are herding dogs, some are taught to be guard dogs for example) and dogs that are selectively bred to be aggressive and kill.
There's a lot of new evidence of DNA traits in animals and humans - you can't take traits out of a breed by training.
Yes, as I alluded to in my comment about Cocker Spaniels.
I am not saying users here are haters but, those banning entire breed populations are. If they can ban your dog breed, they can ban mine!
The one most common in the USA is similar to the Michael Vick (famous USA football player) case over Pit Bulls. Similar to Cocker Spaniels with two divergent population groups but banning both out of ignorance of the difference.
Surely every XL Bully in the UK isn't a menace to society but, obviously, some are. Why is that? Why don't they ban bad dogs instead of an entire breed? Are XL Bullies the only dog to kill someone in the UK?
I feel bad for GOOD OWNERS who now have a dog deemed a threat to society because of some bad owners and breeders.
