SUNDAY MAIL EXCLUSIVE: Adam Watts was trying to restrain the powerful animal when it turned on him at a kennels in Dundee.
A close friend of a Scot killed by an American XL bully dog said he would have opposed a ban on the breed if he was still alive.
The Scottish Government have said they are considering a similar ban to bring Scotland into line with the rest of the UK. She added: “Adam thought that every dog deserved a chance and would not have liked to a breed banned or put down as is being proposed.“People are contacting me to say they are now terrified that they will have to put their pets down when the ban comes into place.”
She added: “I also have a one year old granddaughter who in my house all the time and I have no worries about her with the dogs. “Once you let the dog off the lead you are no longer in control and that is when the attacks happen.”It can weigh more than nine stone and is said to be strong enough to overpower an adult.
