  1. >attacking another dog and injuring three people

    Sad, but all he was really doing was moving the problem from one area to another.

    I understand he and people like him mean well, but this wasn’t the answer.

  2. Looks like a straight up pitbull to me, if it’s the one in the photo with him. I don’t disagree with BSL as such, but it’s obviously not up to scratch. 

  3. >Yesterday his lawyer told the Record he was not at fault over the incident and a complaint is set to be lodged with police – claiming video evidence shows the animal was under control when it was shot.

    I suspect they’ve fully swallowed the myth that if the dog is on a lead then it’s under control, no matter what it’s actually doing at the time

    >He added: “He wasn’t a ‘devil dog’, his name was Kilo, his crime? Being an XL Bully.”

    His crime was mauling a 14yo collie and injuring three people who tried to save it. 

  4. Now seeing multiple of these dogs around Aberdeen with the usual reprobates.

    It has always been mostly staffies here but there is now an influx of these dogs being walked off lead.

    Only a matter of time.

  5. But those damn chihuahua’s have so much to answer for….

  6. Am I the only one who read it as the man, not the dog being shot dead?

  7. All of these dogs just need to be humanely put down, or at least all sterilised so there’s no more of them.

  8. If it was under control, how did it managed to injure another dog and 3 people?

  9. > In a social media post shared by Wilkinson prior to bringing Kilo to Scotland, he said the dog was “probably the strongest bully I’ve worked with” and the animal had shown “incredible strength”

    I wonder how carefully he vetted the relative strength of the person who whom he handed the dog to in EK.
