Breed specific legislation
The Staffordshire Bull Terrier is a banned or restricted breed in many parts of the world -- due to many people branding staffies under the same name as pit bull type dogs, when, in fact, it is a totally different breed -- including parts of Europe and some North American states. The German government then tried to ban the breed in September 2000 across the EU, but were stopped by representatives from the British Kennel Club.
