Review: Further restrictions possibly pending
The Danish government introduced BSL in 1991 in
respect of "Pit bull terrier" and "Tosa." Click here
for further details.
NOTE: The Danish government feel
the current legislation has turned out to be inadequate. "The Ministry of
Justice is considering whether or not to ban also other breeds, or to adopt a
different approach all together, since many of the problems with dangerous dogs
seem to be directly related to the specific circumstances under which the dogs
are kept."
