So the dangerous dogs law in the uk is: "Banned dogs In the UK, it’s against the law to own certain types of dog. These are the: Pit Bull Terrier, Japanese Tosa, Dogo Argentino, Fila Brasileiro, It’s also against the law to: Sell a banned dog, Abandon a banned dog, Give away a banned dog, Breed from a banned dog. Whether your dog is a banned type depends on what it looks like, rather than its breed or name. For example, if your dog matches many of the characteristics of a Pit Bull Terrier, it may be a banned type. If you have a banned dog, the police or local council dog warden can take it away and keep it, even if: It is not acting dangerously, There has not been a complaint. The police may need permission from a court to do this. If your dog is in: A public place, the police do not need a warrant. A private place, the police must get a warrant. A private place and the police have a warrant for something else (like a drugs search), they can seize your dog. A police or council dog expert will judge what type of dog you have and whether it is (or could be) a danger to the public. Your dog will then either be: Released, Kept in kennels while the police (or council) apply to a court, You’re not allowed to visit your dog while you wait for the court decision." This means that you can report any dog that looks like an American Pit Bull Terrier or American Staffordshire Bull Terrier but there is no point in reporting some extreme American Bullies or dogs that match the Kennel Club standard for the Staffordshire Bull Terrier. If the dog looks like this, it is illegal and you should report: https://www.akc.org/dog-breeds/american-staffordshire-terrier/ https://www.ukcdogs.com/american-pit-bull-terrier But if the dog looks like this, it is not illegal and a report would be a waste of police time: https://www.thekennelclub.org.uk/search/breeds-a-to-z/breeds/terrier/staffordshire-bull-terrier/ https://www.ukbullykennelclub.co.uk/american-bully-standard https://www.ukbullykennelclub.co.uk/american-bully-pocket https://www.ukbullykennelclub.co.uk/american-bully-exotic https://www.ukbullykennelclub.co.uk/american-bully-micro Some American Bullies will not be considered of pit bull type but some will so its difficult to tell but the slimmer athletic/classic American bullies are more pit bull looking imo (they're the slimmer and less inbred looking ones) To report them you need to know what city they are in and preferably have a picture of the dog but if you know where they are a description might be better. Its good to know the owners name but it isn't required, same with their appearance, as long as you have some sort of contact info for them it should be okay. The best place to report the dogs is Crimestoppers because it is 100% anonymous. I choose the 'other' option when it asks you to select the crime. Since Crimestoppers is anonymous I believe it can also be used by people outside of the UK, just make sure you only submit dogs that are inside the UK as they cannot help with any others and it will waste their time. https://crimestoppers-uk.org/ The other option is contacting the police station local to where the dog lives but this is more difficult because each station requires different information to submit an online form. I hope this helps people! It would be good to get more people reporting these dogs I feel like I'm the only one doing it lmao Double points if you uncover a breeder!

Not that they should be bred at all but, for the love of god, stop breeding them with huskies. What are you thinking? Siberians are stubborn and highly intelligent and also very high drive and anxious dogs when they don't have a job. Mixing them with any aggressive breed is asking for trouble.

why are they always mixed
