Identification of types of specially controlled dogs
27.
The pit bull terrier is the most common of the four types of controlled dog. It is
currently estimated that there are about 10,000 in the UK and a detailed description of
the type was sent to Chief Officers on 26 July. The posters sent to all force headquarters
on 2 August give a further indication of the typical size and range of colouring of pit bull
terriers.
However, it is recognised that identification of pit bull terriers is not
straightforward and it may be most easily confused with the Staffordshire bull terrier,
which is smaller.
And therein lies my argument. Especially the last line.I have quite a
leggy Stafford and have seen some taller and bigger built than him.
Thanks for the comment about Ossie's site.
Sal.I agree that we tend to follow suit with Europe,but even more worrying is the fact that some states in America have banned The Stafford,and if Blair and his cronies run true to form,they will blindly follow the lead of the Yanks.
