After fatal attack by American Bully: debate about breeding ban gains momentum. As early as autumn 2023, a debate about bred fighting dogs was sparked in Austria after an American Staffordshire Terrier bit a jogger to death.
The animal protection organization PETA has now reiterated its call for a breeding ban for all dog breeds, not just so-called listed dogs. Attacks by dogs occur every day in Germany. In 2022, a total of 576 incidents were reported in the capital in which people were injured by dog bites.
