From 1 February, it became a criminal offence to own the XL bully breed in England and Wales without an exemption certificate. Anyone who owns one of the dogs must have had the animal neutered, have it microchipped and keep it muzzled and on a lead in public, among other restrictions.
So I'm guessing she got them before they were banned and had an exception so she didn't have to have them destroyed.
Or didn't and simply flouted the law.
There's a stereotype of people who own those breed(s) for a reason.
The article did mention them as "registered", so I don't think this applies.
Yeah I saw that but found it strange that it seemed to distinguish between registered dogs and certified owners.

Maybe they just had runescape accounts.
