An expert dog trainer has warned people against buying one breed - and says he believes it will be the next added to the UK's list of banned dangerous dogs. There are currently four breeds and types of dogs banned in the UK - Pit Bull Terrier, Japanese Tosa, Dogo Argentino and Fila Brasileiro.
Jacob Morgan, founder and trainer of the YorkshireCanineAcademy.co.uk, believes another name could soon be added to that list. Jacob has trained more than 2,500 dogs and owns five himself.
But there is one breed he says most people shouldn’t buy, and he knows because he owns one. Jacob says: “Just this week I have seen five Belgian Malinois dogs looking to be re-homed via Facebook. This is frightening to see as it shows people are buying this breed of dog and not being able to care for them.
