Around 11 this morning I think, at the next traffic lights just west of Asda. 3-4 police cars stopped(with their lights on) and a police land rover coming down the hill from arrowe park (may not have been involved) one of the cars was nose to nose at the traffic lights with a Light brown LDV crew-cab pickup. Couldnt see any other vehicles stopped, but traffic was rubbernecking, slow and building up.

Anyone know what might have been going on?

If it was an accident, hope no-one was injured.

I passed again an just over an hour later and they were all gone

Breed Specific Legislation! verysorry

You don't here about it in the press to much but basically if you own a dog normally a bully breed for example a staffie, bulldog, or a cross breed and they measure a certain way (resemble a type of dog that is a banned breed) even though DNA etc proves they are not, they can seize your dog and destroy it, even if it is 5 years old and passes all aggression tests.

Lennox is in court on Friday http://www.savelennox.co.uk/
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOrM7hVk6ts

Venus is on Monday - Merseyside Police took her and her litter mate although returned her sister and kept Venus, although she has passed all aggression tests they want her destroyed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJ7GGEDie6c&feature=share

Fudge was taken from her home at 5 months old and didn't stand a chance, she was killed within an hour even though she was too young to determine what type she would resemble!

All I'm saying is I see a few friendly amazing dogs being walked about Wirral and running in the parks, if you own a dog that could be thought to be of type then you need to research your rights, your vet will report your dog! http://www.ddawatch.co.uk/

And don't sign anything! eek BSL is 20yrs old now and still they are taking family pets from loving homes! Deed not breed -They are punishing the wrong end of the leash! BSL needs to end or it could be your dog next! Pit Bulls were destroyed and now they are targeting staffie x's etc....

Not wanting to go off topic here, but I think that more should be done to tackle owners rather than the dogs themselves. I have a very large dog who has no aggression in her whatsoever, she is always on a lead in the park only this week a woman walking to terriers off a lead laughed when one of them went for my dogs throat; sadly even though in my opinion it was the owners fault for not having the dog under control, a swift kick with a steel toe cap ensured my dog didnt get injured to badly. I agree totally with teh above post

I understand people don't want to lose their dogs but they know the risk when get a dog that looks like it may not be legal. If a dog is an illegal breed there is no wa,y even if they pass the aggression test, that they should be allowed to live. They are illegal for a reason.

A staffie is not illegal, a bulldog is not illegal - when you cross the two they are not illegal, HOWEVER.... If their muzzle or legs grow to a certain length they can deem them as TYPE which means they are not a banned breed but they have characteristics of a banned breed so therefore they can destroy them even if they are 8yrs old, live with 10 kids and have never out a foot wrong.
Pit bulls (illegal breed) are a no no in the UK but in America they are still happy family pets. Its people bringing them up wrong (dog fighting, status dogs) etc that got them a bad name due to their strength. If you look at the statistics BSL does not work, more people are attacked by collies, chihuahua's etc...
Attitudes must change or else next to go will be rotties, dobies and bull dogs! Please don't take my word for it, http://www.ddawatch.co.uk/ I have a labrador, when you measure labradors 90% measure as TYPE although these are not deemed a threat!

The media are to blame when it comes to bad press for bully breeds, they never report on collie or yorkie attacks. I myself have seen many dogs in Birkenhead Park that could be deemed to be of type but theres not one bad bone in their bodies, they play with my son and my dog and their owners are decent people. However my dog has been bitten twice by a collie and a little golden thing went for me (dont know what it was but it had a long nose) and a retriever went for another lady!
The government needs to regulate breeding because there are too many homeless dogs and also put a 5 yr breeding ban on staffies and staffie x's there are 25,000 of them killed every year.
