The sun brought out the zoomies and the craziness too. We get just as much enjoyment watching all the pups play as they do.

Important Updates to XL Bully & Section 1 Dog Exemption Rules in England and Wales

Defra has updated its guidance regarding exempted dogs under Section 1 of the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991, including XL Bully dogs and Pit Bull Terriers.

The key changes are:

🔹 Third-Party Liability Insurance No Longer Required
From 1 July 2026, owners of exempted Section 1 dogs will no longer be required to maintain third-party public liability insurance as a condition of their Certificate of Exemption.

🔹 New Child Supervision Requirement
From 1 November 2026, it will become a legal requirement that a child under the age of 12 is not left in close contact with an exempted Section 1 dog in a private place (such as a home or garden) without adult supervision.

This new requirement will form part of the conditions attached to a dog's Certificate of Exemption.

What Remains Unclear
Despite these changes, cooper & co: doglaw states there is still no published process for removing a dog from the Index of Exempted Dogs. Defra's guidance continues to state that further information on this issue will be provided "soon".

Weve had another playdate and Charlie met his twin.
Buddy was a pro at the enrichment game with George being a close 2nd.
Our home is all about being happy and safe.
