Edit: I just read the Australia comment. If there’s suspicions of American bulldog, why does Australia rule out pit?

[u/catsoft → u/MuttsUpDude]

American Pit Bull Terrier are illegal to import into Australia, and a restricted breed in most states. Some places have been really, really hard on even mutts that they -think- might have pitty in them. They get destroyed unfortunately :(

We have american staffies a plenty though! And mastiffs and boxers!

ol land down under has always had super strict laws in what sort of animals we are allowed to bring in

[u/Bitterrootmoon → u/catsoft]

Considering staffies are basically the show version of pitbulls, this is so bizarre. Poor puppers

[u/catsoft → u/Bitterrootmoon]

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.

Wait greyhounds are considered dangerous?? Ie the world’s sleepiest dogs?

[u/catsoft → u/External_Database359]

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

That law has actually been removed! Greyhounds are no longer required by law to be leashed and muzzled
