Breed responsible for nine deaths since 2021, but dog organisations suggest ban may not address the issue
The American bully has quickly become one of the more visible dog breeds in the UK in recent years.
It is the larger American bully that has been responsible for half of all dog-related deaths in the UK since 2021, killing nine people including three children. Last month, Jonathan Hogg, a 37 year-old dog carer from Greater Manchester, was playing with an American bully XL when it attacked him, going for his throat. Hogg later died in hospital. Armed officers were brought in to control the dog, which Greater Manchester police said “posed a significant risk” to the public, before it was euthanised.
