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

A trainer of dangerous dogs has slammed the Government's response to XL Bullies and claimed that some of them are just "sweet little lambs".

This comes after a woman in East London was attacked by her two dogs yesterday and pronounced dead at the scene.

Speaking to GB News was Jon Gardner, a dangerous dog trainer, who said: "They shouldn't be on the streets, they shouldn't be in people's houses, and more importantly, they shouldn't continue to be bred.

"However, in fairness, there are a lot of XL bullies out there and I've met a fair few that are sweet little lambs, if you excuse the cliché.

"An attitude where euthanising them, and we're talking about a cull here killing all the XL bullies, is simply not fair.

"If it solved the problem, I could take that bitter pill. But it will not solve the problem.

"I think that's easier said than done. And I think you would have to be a very cold-hearted person to turn up to some of the family homes that I know and take these dogs away from children.

"I think that the answer to the problem isn't as simple as filling out a form online. It means spending a little bit of money and making a bit of effort."
