Xena, I'm sure your hund is well trained , and that you are also well trained to pick up its excrement from public places, in which case you are among the minority of responsible dog owners. But are you sure that your animal's natural aggression is completely under control? would you leave a child alone with your dog?
the British Guardian newspaper reports : The Office of National Statistics records the number of deaths caused by dangerous dogs as an average of 2.3 a year from 1999 to 2005. More than 3,000 people are recorded injured by dogs each year but many more incidents go unreported. In 2005, three people were convicted of breeding a fighting dog or from a fighting dog while just over 400 were found guilty of allowing a dog "to be dangerously out of control in a public place injuring a person". This can be any dog, not just the four that are illegal.
