The Danish Ministry of Justice has identified the following 13 breeds as dangerous. Henceforth, the breeds are scheduled to be banned from entry into Denmark and are not allowed entry into Denmark effective 01 July 2010.

The 13 breeds concerned are as follows: Pitbull Terrier, Tos Inu, American Staffordshire, Fila Brasileiro, Dogo Argentino, American Bulldog, Boerbel, Kangal, Central Asian Ovtcharka, Caucasina Ovtcharka, Southern Russian Ovtcharka, Tornjak and Sarplaninac.

The government bill, which has the support of the Danish People’s Party and thus a majority, is expected to be presented in Parliament soon.

If passed, the law will ban the procurement of these 13 breeds in Denmark. Dogs of these breeds that are already in Denmark will have to be held on a leash and muzzled.
