Went shopping today & saw this muzzled dog opposite. Gave me a shock as I v rarely see muzzled dogs in my area & never ones that resemble XL Bullies. I know the pic is blurred,

It's overweight the muzzle was probably on to stop it scavenging food on it's walk...

Particularly if you live in a chicken wing shop area... it's pretty common near us.

I'm loving this thread, thanks OP. The photo 🤣🤣. First glance thought it was an obese goat.

PrincessBing · 01/03/2025 09:37

It appears to be a labrador crossed with a shetland pony? I can see why such a combination would need a muzzle!

Really rare, those.

If it was a DeDoDoDa someone could legitimately call The Police. There could then be a Sting operation. As long as it does Stand So Close To Me it's fine....

I'll get my coat.

I believe submissions for the Natural History Museum’s Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2025 are open, OP.

Definitely taxidermied. But it’s a cat.

Show quote history

Hell fire !
Now that is terrifying , poor cat .

Snooks1971 · 01/03/2025 09:16

I think it’s a ghost. Quick, someone email Danny Robins from Uncanny.

I bet its his dog !

MrBallensWife · 01/03/2025 09:25

Are you available for wedding photography OP?
Asking for a friend 😀

blacksax · 01/03/2025 09:20

Well at least it had a muzzle on, which you don't see all that often, so it seems the owner is trying to be responsible.

WellsAndThistles · 01/03/2025 09:16

Why are you asking, if it has paperwork and a muzzle on it is probably perfectly legal.

(Personally I would have them all PTS but hey ho).

BornSandyDevotional · 01/03/2025 07:55

You can't be too careful. At least it's muzzled. I saw this yesterday. Terrifying! I reported it, obviously.

Wow - you know your XL Bully is illegal right? What will you do when it rips out a child’s throat?!!!!

JandamiHash · 01/03/2025 09:10

Fucking hell OP that could be a statue outside a barber’s for all we know. Come back with a better picture!

Whatifitallgoesright · 01/03/2025 09:09

I got a Specsavers advert under your photo so even the internet has concerns.

GoldStar2 · 01/03/2025 09:09

What?

Whatisthisbs · 01/03/2025 09:06

The comments haven't disappointed 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

theJackofHearts · 01/03/2025 09:06

Were you in Swaledale? If so it is definitely the black dog of Yorkshire.

I must've drank more than I thought last night though, my eyes just cannot focus on that photo!

redboxer321 · 01/03/2025 09:05

Could be. There's a lot of XL bullies about. I saw two on TV last night, one of whom was orange.

ForestFox44 · 01/03/2025 09:04

What's the problem if it is an XL bully under control and muzzled? Kindly get a life....and a better camera 😅

murphys · 01/03/2025 09:02

I don't think it's an XL

It's definitely a Woosh

Bundleflower · 01/03/2025 08:55

Did you take that picture from a plane?

ScottBakula · 01/03/2025 08:44

I see a little cocker spaniel most days s/he always has a muzzle on .
I have no idea why but kudos for the owner taking responsibility.

How on earth do you expect the Police to find that, it blends into it's surroundings like the Predator did in that Arnie film!

DiscoBeat · 01/03/2025 08:35

You must have been shocked for all of 0.5 seconds as you shot past it!
