10 forbidden dog breeds. The most dangerous dog in the world. Stray dogs are a real danger in the city

Once again I can't watch the new "The Dawns Here Are Quiet". I love Christina Asmus. I was sure that she was playing Zhenya Komelkova. As I remember...

The dog is man's friend. However, many forget that this is still a wild animal, which is not always successful in training. For example, in the late 1980s, cases of dog attacks on people became more frequent. As a result, pit bulls and related breeds gained notoriety.

There was even a wave of bans on some types of dogs. For example, in 1991 the Parliament of the United Kingdom officially banned the adoption of dangerous dog breeds such as Japanese Tosa Inu, Dogo Argentino, Pit Bull and Fila Brasileiro.

This initiative was also supported by some other countries. Even in those states where such breeds were officially allowed, it turned out to be quite difficult for owners to conclude an insurance contract.

American bulldog. These dogs are officially banned in Singapore, Denmark and some other states. The breed has been known since the end of the 19th century. It is one of the closest and untouched relatives of the English Bulldog. Initially, the breed appeared in the south of the country, where these bulldogs were used as guards. They were specially trained to hunt wild pigs. But these creatures weigh several hundred pounds and are quite ferocious. That is why the trained dogs were large, strong and quite dangerous. When attacking its prey, the American Bulldog clung to its throat until the owner approached. The peculiarity of the breed is its high pain threshold. And American Bulldogs weigh from 27 to 54 kilograms.

Bloodhound. Since the Middle Ages, the word "bandog" has been used to refer to large dogs used as guards. Modern bloodhounds have lost their pure blood, they are derived from breeds such as mastiffs and pit bull terriers. The size of such a dog is comparable to a Great Dane. Veterinarian John Swinford began breeding the breed in the late 1960s and soon became famous. The most famous representative, the Bantu dog, was extremely cruel and became famous for its military exploits. Now this breed is banned almost everywhere. And these aggressive animals can weigh from 30 to 50 kg.

Neapolitan Mastiff. Another nickname for the breed is neo. She was born in Italy. Such a mastiff was immediately used as a military Roman legionnaires. She also acted as a kind of gladiator in bloody fights. Today Neapolitan mastiffs serve as guards. The breed is large, its representatives have wrinkled skin, drooping cheeks and loose hair. It was the Neapolitan Mastiff that was taken as the basis for creating the image of the giant Hagrid from the Harry Potter epic. Dangerous dogs are prohibited by law in Singapore, and in Romania, the owner, before acquiring such a pet, must pass a preliminary interview with a psychologist.

Czechoslovakian Wolfdog (Czechoslovakian Wolfdog). This breed was bred in 1955 in Czechoslovakia when crossing a German shepherd with a Carpathian wolf. The intertwined genetic structure rewarded the wolf with an unpredictable character. It is difficult to say when she will behave like a wolf, and when - like an ordinary dog. Representatives of the breed have a well-defined prey instinct. That is why sometimes a child is considered as a potential victim, resulting in cases of attacks on children. In general, the dog is considered a good pet, but its keeping is prohibited in Norway.

Boerboel. This dog has become widespread in South Africa. Outwardly, it is somewhat reminiscent of a sports bull. The name of the breed in translation from Dutch literally means "farm dog". Boerboels take their origin from African and watchdogs. In 1920, the breed appeared on the mainland from Europe, specifically for the protection of diamond copies in South Africa. Dogs are excellent guards, they love children and do not show outright aggression. Huge dogs reach a weight of 60 kg and are banned in Denmark. Boerboels are very strong and hardy, however, the owner is required to conduct constant exhausting training.

Dogo Argentino. In 1928, the breed was created by Dr. Antonio Martinez. In the process of creation, 10 different breeds took part at once. This is a Great Dane, Dogue de Bordeaux, Irish Wolfhound, English Pointer. Each of them gave the new breed something of its own. Irish wolfhound - speed, great Pyrenean dog - endurance and white color, Great Dane - height. The breeder bred such Great Danes specifically for hunting mountain lions, cougars. In a pack of five dogs, at least two turn out to be suicide bombers, which requires courage from the dogs. They are a real pile of muscles, and weigh up to 65 kg. The Dogo Argentino looks like an oversized pit bull. Breeding of this breed is prohibited in 10 countries around the world, including Portugal, Australia and New Zealand. True, despite the terrible appearance, the dog was never used as a fighting dog.

Presa Canario. The Dogo Canario comes from Spain. The breed was recognized relatively recently, in 2001. At the same time, the dog was marked by the first case of killing a person. The victim died right in the hallway of his house. The dog's owners were found guilty of murder and sentenced to lengthy prison terms. She guards well and feels her territory, loves peace. The appearance of an uninvited guest can lead to an outbreak of aggression. The dangerous animal is banned in New Zealand and Australia. The history of the development of Great Danes goes back several centuries. They were not bred artificially, this breed developed naturally in the Canary Islands.

Fila Brasileiro. The large Brazilian Mastiff was once used to hunt jaguars and wild boars. The progenitors of the breed, most likely, are mastiffs. Of all the forbidden dogs, this one is the most naughty. The Brazilian Mastiff is an excellent guard dog who does not trust strangers. Some fanciers even appreciate this breed for its aggressiveness. Even at exhibitions, judges are not recommended to touch them. In the United Kingdom, this breed is prohibited. Although the dog shows loyalty to his owner and his family, numerous guests can cause aggression.

Japanese Tosa Inu. This breed is also called the Japanese mastiff. She was bred at one time in the principality of Tosa just for dog fights. Local Japanese dogs crossed with bulldogs, mastiffs, great danes and St. Bernards brought from Europe. The result is a breed that can fight silently and is distinguished by increased stamina. She does not rush at the enemy and does not growl, but tries to press him with her body. Although sales of the Tosa Inu from Japan itself are extremely rare, this breed is banned in Malta, Norway, Denmark and other countries.

American Pit Bull Terrier. This dog is a real horror of man. Meanwhile, most of the fears are in vain. Pit bulls were bred from early bulldogs and terriers specifically to fight other dogs. They really have no equal in this. This breed is strong, able to fight to the end and win no matter what. However, today, unfortunately, pit bulls are a symbol of criminal offenses associated with dogs. But an attack on a person is associated only with poor care of the dog and its poor-quality training. Initially, she was not bred at all to attack people, so she does not show aggression. Do not consider this good-natured pet as a deadly enemy. True, it was banned in Miami-Dade County, Florida, the Canadian province of Ontario and some countries.

10. American Bulldog
Banned in Denmark, Singapore and several municipalities. The breed appeared in the far south, where dogs were bred as farm dogs. The bulldog was trained to catch wild pigs, which have several hundred kilograms of weight and a pair of dangerous tusks. If driven into a corner, hogs become dangerous opponents, requiring great strength and athleticism from the dog. Therefore, the bulldog has a high pain threshold. The dog weighs 35-60 kg, although it can be more. 9. Bandog
The term was used as early as the Middle Ages to describe a large dog that was unleashed at night to guard an area. The modern Bandog is not a thoroughbred, there are several "recipes" for how to get a Bandog, including American Pit Bull Terriers and some Mastiffs. The goal is to create a mastiff sized dog with the attack of an American Pit Bull Terrier. The breed became famous in the late 60s when veterinarian John Swynford started breeding them. Now bandogs are banned almost everywhere. 8. Neapolitan Mastiff
The Neapolitan mastiff, or neo, appeared in Italy, where it participated in gladiator fights in the Colosseum. Such dogs were also used in the war. Today it is the defenders of the house. Mastiffs are easy to distinguish by their appearance. The largest specimens can weigh up to 100 kg. The Neapolitan Mastiff was used as Hagrid's dog in the Harry Potter films. You cannot have such a breed in Singapore, and in Romania you need to be recognized as sane for this. 7. Wolfhound
There are many famous breeds of wolves and domestic dogs, including the Czechoslovakian wolfhound and the Sarlos wolfdog. Probably the most famous wolfhound is White Fang, invented by Jack London. These dogs are very unpredictable, reacting like a wolf in one case and a dog in another, and are not considered good pets. There have been several attacks by wolfhounds on humans, usually on small children, who are perceived by the dog as prey. Banned in Norway. 6. Boerboel
It comes from South Africa and resembles the athletic mastiff in appearance. The name translates from Danish as a farm dog. They were bred from local African dogs and watchdogs. In the late 1920s, De Beers brought the Mastiff to South Africa to guard their mines, where these dogs made a major contribution to the modern breed. Excellent defenders of the house without too much aggression, they are also good with children. Banned in Denmark. 5. Dogo Argentino
First appeared in Argentina in 1928. The Great Danes were bred by crossing the extinct Cordoba fighting dog with several other breeds, including the Great Dane, Dogue de Bordeaux, and the Irish Wolfhound. Antonio Nores Martinez bred such dogs as mountain lion hunters. They were also used for combat. They are white in color and resemble a pit bull.

Fights resemble sumo wrestling, the winner receives the title of Yokotsuna. Tosa shows unusual resilience, fighting silently, not growling. Banned in Denmark, Norway and Malta, among other countries. 1. American Pit Bull Terrier
Pit bulls were bred by crossing bulldogs and terriers for dog fighting. In this case, the pit bull has no equal. He was valued for his strength and tenacity, and soon the pit bull became the city's symbol of male crime. Due to poor breeding and training, dogs began to attack people, most often with a fatal outcome. In the old days, pit bull owners washed their dogs before a fight to eliminate the threat of poisoning. Banned in Miami-Dade, Ontario and many countries.

A neighbor passing by drew attention to the dog, which, as it seemed to him, was playing with some large object. Looking closer, he saw that a man was lying on the ground. The neighbor called the police, the pit bull was shot dead. The woman was taken to the hospital, but the doctors could only ascertain her death. The police are investigating, and it is likely that a criminal case will be opened against the owner of the dog.

This case again raised the issue of banning pitubles in Quebec. There is no federal law in Canada that regulates the keeping of dangerous dogs. Pit bulls are banned in Ontario and Manitoba's capital, Winnipeg, while in Quebec, such a ban exists in some municipalities.

The Pit Bull is the ancestor of the American Staffordshire Terrier. He was bred by crossing a bulldog with a terrier. The pit bull belongs to the breeds of fighting dogs, but the Fédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI) still refuses to recognize him. This breed does not have well-defined standards. The English ancestors of the pit bull were engaged in the protection of the master's property, but at the same time they were famous for their good disposition and even, like the Scottish Shepherd Collie, nursed children. In America, bull terriers were used for dog fighting. At some point, this type of entertainment was banned in the United States, but pit bulls have retained their unpredictable aggressive nature and can suddenly attack both an adult and a child. Of the ten cases of dog attacks on humans, eight are pit bulls. No wonder they were banned.

A wave of bans began in Europe in the 90s of the last century and began to spread throughout the world. In most EU countries, pit bulls are banned, and where there is no ban, then there are strict restrictions on their maintenance. In Russia, the pit bull terrier is recognized as a potentially dangerous breed. It is impossible to walk dogs of this breed without a muzzle and a leash, but there is no complete ban. In Russia, this breed enjoys a certain popularity. In Romania, the owner of a pit bull is required to be over 18 years old and have a certificate from a psychiatrist. In order to obtain a license in Spain to own pit bulls and dogs of a number of other breeds, including Argentinean dogs, bull terriers and Rottweilers, one must also buy insurance in the amount of 120,000 euros. In Singapore, owners of dangerous dogs are required to have insurance of $100,000.

Not only pit bulls, but also other breeds were included in the proscription lists of different countries. In Denmark, these are, among others, the Caucasian and South Russian Shepherds, in Ireland, the German Shepherd and the Doberman Pinscher. Who knows this breed: Fila Brasileiro Akita? Cute dog with long ears. It is also banned in a number of countries, including Australia, the UK, Spain, Portugal, Norway and Bermuda. Where "dangerous" breeds are allowed, there are strict laws on keeping them.

The fate of pit bulls in Quebec may soon be decided. Society on this issue was divided approximately evenly: according to a survey conducted immediately after the tragedy in Pointe-au-Tremblay, 49% are in favor of a ban, 44% are against it. Animal rights advocates believe that all claims should be made against the owners, not the breeds of dogs. Owners should be responsible for their pets. Still, two-thirds of those surveyed believe that this issue should be resolved at the provincial, and not at the municipal level. Most likely, pit bulls will be banned. This does not mean that owners will be forced to get rid of their pets. Most likely, already existing dogs will be forced to sterilize. If the law is passed, then the breeding of pitubles will be stopped, and their import into the province will be prohibited.

Without waiting for a decision at the provincial level, the ban on pit bulls and crossbreeds of this breed is introduced by the municipality of Brossard. New pit bulls will not be "registered" in the city. Existing owners will be required to buy at least $250,000 worth of liability insurance. They will also have to complete obedience training with their pets and have their dogs microchip implanted. Access to dog areas for pit bulls will be closed, and on the street they can only appear in muzzles. All this will be supervised by a special inspector. Keeping your pets for lovers of this breed will be troublesome and expensive. In the Montreal area, pit bulls have already been banned in the municipalities of Outremont and La Prairie.
