GB News: Dangerous dogs mapped: Hotspot areas where most dogs are seized by police with 114 taken each week
In the UK, police are seizing an average of 16 dangerous dogs daily, totaling nearly 6,000 since November 2023. Greater Manchester leads in seizures, with 1,000 dogs taken off the streets in a year. Hospital admissions for dog bites are rising despite existing legislation.
Experts argue that breed-specific bans may not effectively address the issue, emphasizing the need to tackle irresponsible ownership and breeding practices. The recent XL bully ban, prompted by fatal attacks, may not be sufficient to prevent future incidents, with concerns about illegal rehoming of banned breeds.
