<\/p>\nA number of illegal "backyard breeders" will bring vicious dogs far worse than XL Bully breeds to the streets of the UK, an expert chillingly warned. <\/p>\n
Dogs which "you do not want on the street" may be wandering UK towns in a matter of months as an increase in abandoned XL Bully dogs was reported. Liverpool-based Carla Lane Animals in Need says there has been an increase in abandoning the dangerous dogs. <\/p>\n
Banning XL Bully dogs was announced by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak earlier this year as the "nation's horror" amounted to action being taken. The "pattern of behaviour" found in the dogs was deemed a massive problem.<\/p>\n

Starting next year, the dogs will be banned under the Dangerous Dogs Act, though Cathy Billington of Sanctuary says a ban "will not solve" the rise in dog-related incidents. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
She said: "The problem is always going to be breeding of dogs. Because we are having every backyard breeder breeding these XL bullies that aren't being socialised, aren't being trained properly. <\/p>\n
"You then ban the XL bullies, they'll move onto the cane corsos, the presa canarios – which you do not want on the streets, you really don't. They're going to be worse than the XL bullies in regard to bite factor." Both breeds mentioned by Billington are larger than XL bullies.<\/p>\n
Cane Corsos and Neapolitan Mastiff's could also be a danger to the streets of the UK, with LADBible reporting a "big and strong" breed like the aforementioned two needing "puppy training classes".<\/p>\n

The American Kennel Club stated: "Early socialisation and puppy training classes are recommended for all dogs, but for a breed as big and strong as a cane corso, they are a must. Many cane corsos can be dominant and protective; socialisation will help ensure that they grow into well-adjusted, well-mannered adults.<\/p>\n
"Obedience training will keep them from becoming the boss in the household." PDSA warnings were also noted, which read: "We really wouldn\u2019t recommend having a cane corso if you have small children."<\/p>\n
So far, the death toll in the UK in dog-related incidents has risen to 24 over three years, the Daily Star reported. Sir Robert Goodwill has called for a "general cull" of the XL Bully breed. <\/p>\n
