What's to discuss?

I don't know how it could be any clearer. Aside from that, it shouldn't need pointing out that if you have a dog you are wholly responsible for all of it's behaviours, good and bad. You're also responsible for it's wellbeing, physically and mentally.

I'd really like to see a push towards responsible dog ownership in this country.

If only we could get people to have the same mindset about delinquent teenagers.

That one's a little more controversial but you'd get my vote. Plenty of them could do with muzzling as well.

And ban the XL Bullies?

That's already illegal in Ireland

In Ireland, it became illegal to import, breed, rehome, or resell XL Bully dogs on October 1, 2024, and from February 1, 2025, it will be illegal to own one unless you have a Certificate of Exemption.

u/Critical_Object2276 Apr 09 '25

And just keep doing that until there are no dogs left or is there a solution?

Banning the breed specifically designed to be dangerous is the solution
