A woman died after being attacked by her two XL Bully dogs in east London yesterday

Head of dog behaviour Hannah Molloy has urged the governments to introduce a "DVLA style" training course for people who want to own a dog.

This comes after a woman died after being attacked by her two XL Bully dogs in east London yesterday.

Speaking to Martin Daubney on GB News, Molloy said: "We need a much broader spectrum approach to dealing with responsible dog ownership.

"I think in the UK, we need to see a new agency formed by the government, a bit like the DVLA. If we had the dog licensing agency and every dog owner was charged, say £100, we would have £1.2 billion to spend on enforcement and education."
