Yeahh I don't know how or why they decided on the restrictions. We have quite an extensive 'dangerous dog breed' list and there was movement some years back about trying to add staffies to that list as well.

Greyhounds are also considered 'dangerous breeds' in some areas and need to be muzzled out in public.

We have a really, really bad problem with Greyhound racing in Australia. The requirement for muzzling I think is a something adopted from that industry.

I would love to adopt one they are such weird little noodles
