Banned Breeds

In 2023, the UK government made the decision to add XL Bullies to the UK banned breed lists. This means owners must now have exemption certificates, insurance and all dogs must be kept on a lead at all times and muzzled in public places.

At Big Paw Walks, we do not support the banning of breeds, instead we support education for owners, proper training and socialisation of dogs, responsible handling and stricter rules on dog breeding.

Dog attacks are on the rise, and as owners we have a duty of care to the public, and our dogs to keep each other safe. Banning breeds is not the answer, we need to work together as a community and do our part to stop more dogs from becoming banned, and more people from being hurt.

At Big Paw Walks, we offer discounted prices for owners with banned breeds, as we recognise the difficulty in owning a banned breed, and the frustration of owning a dog who has never put a paw wrong, yet now has to live a restricted life.

Dogs on the UK banned breed list:

  • Pitbull terrier

  • Japanese Tosa

  • Dogo Argentino

  • Fila Brasileiro

  • XL Bully
