Why are they intent on killing him instead of placing him outside the area? Unbelievable.

thanks. I'll hope for the best, but not expect much since the authorities have made their decision.

Maybe a lesson to future owners, not to get dogs like this...or else?
Altho the owners say he's not a pit bull, he sure looks like a pit bull bix to me.
That poor dog. And the poor family. I don't know what I'd do if one of my dogs was taken from me for no reason than what breed they think my mix may contain.

And according to directgov.uk:
A dog type is not a breed. Whether your dog is a banned type depends on what it looks like, rather than its breed or name...
It wont matter what type or breed a dogs parents were. (Cross-bred and mongrel dogs can have the characteristics of a Pit Bull Terrier.)
...Some kinds of American Bulldogs have been found to be Pit Bull types.
