The home secretary is seeking "urgent advice" about banning American XL Bully dogs as footage shows one of the animals attacking an 11-year-old girl and a man in Birmingham. Suella Braverman has said the animals are a "clear and lethal" danger after the video of the attack in Bordesley Green emerged on the social media platform TikTok. West Midlands Police are investigating after two men, who were bitten and left with injuries to their shoulders and arms, were taken to hospital to be treated for their injuries after the incident on Saturday.
I find it particularly hilarious that England calls these American bully XL, while America calls them Staffordshire Terriers. Wonder which state of the US these were native to. America is well known for cultivating dog breeds over hundreds of years. England exporting shit and then relabeling it and pointing fingers is nothing new I guess.
“I find it particularly hilarious that England calls these American bully X”
"The American Bully Kennel Club divided the American Bully into four categories, including the XL, Pocket, Standard, and Classic, whereas other registries, including the UKC, have approved one consistent size standard.

When you hate the English so much, you just spout bullshit and end up looking silly…
Some people that breed dogs known for fighting and have a club for breeding fighting dogs have a bunch of sub labels for the dogs they bred? Crazy. I should start a club and make your family inbreed. I can call them things like super fatty XL.
That is very tangential. You could just admit you were wrong and that it wasn’t a British creation, name wise. Seems your ego is a little too frail for that. Sorry to see that.
They’re not staffies, though.
They’re the same dog, it’s just been selectively bread for muscle mass and jaw size. Plus the assholes who breed them for that purpose like to clip the ears and doc the tails so they look more different than they should.

They’re not, though, they’ve been cross-bred to fuck.
Assholes breed dogs for muscle mass and size is kind of what I just said. Thanks for agreeing with me?
You said they’re the same dog. If they’re cross-bred, they have other breeds mixed in. Are you being intentionally obtuse?
So they bred a dog with a dog that looks like a dog to make a dog that still looks like the dog you say? Impressive how it still looks like a more muscular version of the same dog after all that.
So you’re just fucking stupid, then, lmao
TIL if you make some muscular cousins fuck for a couple generations they aren’t humans after a certain number of times.
Seriously, though, the wiki page is really easy to find:

The breed is based on pitbulls, and has a bunch of other breeds mixed in. So they’re not staffies, have never been staffies, and you’re just making yourself look like a fucking moron.

Same dog breed. Now they just call the ones that got selectively bread a few generations something else.
Why doesn’t that include every breed of dog ever then? Since every breed is exactly that.
