Rejected petition Change the official definition of an XL Bully dog

Change the official definition of an XL Bully dog. Urgently update the description of dogs that will be covered by XL Bully Ban, or delay until this can be done correctly.

More details

The official document's definition, measurements, and descriptions of an XL Bully encompass a vast number of other large dogs, including those that have no direct relation to the XL Bully breed.
This overly broad description in the document will apply to numerous large crossbreed dogs not solely XL Bullies. Many thousands of dogs will be impacted by this
This is looking like a back door ban on all large strong breeds not just XL Bullies.
