I believe that Bully XL dogs under the age of 18 months should not have to wear a muzzle in public but should still be walked on a lead. I feel it is unfair to muzzle any dog before the adult age of 2. I believe early months are crucial to development and that dogs under this age rarely shows aggression to attack. Being able to socialise plays a huge role in a dog's life.
