Yes they genetic bit where XLs suddenly flip was ignored when I think it's the main point really.

Just seen Jaywick XL death case on BBC news, literally as I posted previous comment.

I found the images of the kennels in the Panarama program quite harrowing. It's disgusting that dogs can be kenneled for such long amounts of time while the backlogged court system grinds along. If an XL is caught straying it should be PTS immediatley - the owner has allowed that to happen, regardless of whether a door or gate was left open, if you have a banned breed you have to be super vilgalent.
Some of those dogs were stressed beyond belief and the risk to staff is huge. This really needs to stop, regardless of breed this isn't humane at all and a needle on day one of capture would be far kinder.

I imagine shooting a dog inside a concrete kennel would be a bit of an H&S risk!!
The 'suddenly flipping' is just one element, their size and strength and tenacity is also a worry. There are plenty of large breed dogs who don't have that 'unstoppable' element bred into them, but have enough drive to be useful in other disciplines, or a complete lack of any oomph at all which means they are safe as a family pet.
I imagine he didn't get paid that much to be fair, if at all.

Good to see this delightful character has been found guilty, albeit only of "owning a dog that caused injury while dangerously out of control".

It'll be interesting to see what the sentence is.

Saw that post linked on facebook, the comments were the usual 'it's the owner not the breed!' and 'what about that jack russel that killed a baby?' drivvel.
If I could be arsed to engage with them, I'd be trotting this little list out and asking them if they notice anything, particularly from 2020 onwards...

Almost as if people involved in nefarious industries had to pivot to a new way to make money, for some strange, unspecified reason, six years ago.

Of course, he had a wonderful, soft, cuddly temperament and was great with the kids.
And used as a stud dog too.

Why they couldn't have just pivoted to something less dangerous, like bootleg toilet roll is beyond me!
