Following the recent incident involving an attack by an XL Bully, this topic has once again gained significant attention in the media.
As someone who deeply appreciates dogs, having grown up with a family pet and now owner of two dachshund puppies, I find it difficult to comprehend why individuals would want one, especially around children and then allow their XL Bully to roam freely in public spaces without any control over them.
Just last weekend, while at Liverpool One car park, two "young men" walking through with their two XL bully’s without leads or collars. I’m normally chilled around dogs, but these genuinely give me a scare.
I’m interested in hearing other people's perspectives and experiences - both positive and negative - when it comes to XL bully.

Strolling through Birmingham city on Thursday, I came across an XL Bully without a lead.
Over in the Wirral, we have taken to walking our dogs near our home or in secure private dog parks. This is because the amount of people not being able to control their dogs in public and a child attacked by an XL Bully not far from one of beaches we go. Earlier this year we encountered an unleashed XL Bully with no owner in sight. Thankfully, we didn't have our dogs with us at that time, but it made us feel uneasy.
I can't understand why some dog owners, especially those with large breeds, believe it's acceptable to let their dogs roam freely without leads and without keeping them within eyesight or having any means of control over them if they can't even see them.
