Owners shocked as dogs seized for XL bully checks

Two dog owners whose pets were confiscated by police checking for banned breeds have criticised the process around them being taken away.
Natasha Goodall and her partner Jordan Williams, from Swansea, said the moment their American bulldog Ralph was seized was like having a “child ripped away” from them before police confirmed he was not an XL bully.
They have called for owners to be given more time to prepare for the seizure of their pet, and for checks to be conducted at owners’ homes.
South Wales Police said such measures were put in place to “enhance public safety” and reduce the XL bully population over time.
The XL bully ban was introduced in Wales and England on 1 February 2024 following a number of attacks involving the dogs.
