Dangerous dogs
It is against the law in Great Britain to possess certain types of dogs, and meeting the requirements of the Pet Travel Scheme does not change that. The dogs in question are:
- Pit bull terriers
- Japanese tosas
- Dogo Argentinos
- Fila Brazilieros
Any of these brought into Great Britain - whether or not under the Pet Travel Scheme - could be seized and destroyed.
The person with the dog could also be arrested, and would be liable on conviction in a court to imprisonment and/or a fine.
Travellers are therefore strongly advised not to try to bring to Great Britain any dog that could be regarded as a
prohibited type. If in doubt, donft travel with it.
