Scotland could become the new XL Bully capital due to breeders dumping the unwanted dogs north of the border before the new ban is implemented.
Images of the dogs being moved in cages have spread on social media platforms with one captioned 'We found safe homes for them all in Scotland'.
Another post showed six of the dogs in a van being transported north from Manchester ahead of the ban on the breed.
Did anyone really believe that someone who wanted one of these grotesque mutts in the first place would be a responsible pet owner who would spend the necessary money to comply with the exemptions (neutering, muzzling, insurance) in the ban?
