"Next steps" being worked on for American XL Bully dogs

DEFA says it's aware of the breed being added to list of banned dogs in England and Wales

Government says it's working on its next steps regarding the ownership of American Bully XL dogs on the Island.

It's after the breed was added to the list of banned dogs in England and Wales.

From February, owners there will only be allowed to keep them if they've been given an exemption.

The Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture says it's aware of the news and is assessing how to proceed.
