Bandog is actually the English name for the German term chain dog . This is a dog that is tied up during the day or kept in a kennel and released at night on company or private property to guard an area or property. In Germany, keeping dogs as tethered is subject to conditions.
The other meaning has become known in the context of the fighting dog debate. In relevant circles of the dog scene, the so-called bandog describes a particularly large fighting dog . For example, American Pit Bull Terriers are bred to Molossians . The result is a big dog, not quite as massive, but still very agile and agile.
In the Bavarian dog catalog ( breed list ) the bandog is defined as follows: As a bandog (chain dog) crossbreeds of large-framed dogs (shoulder height over 45 cm, weight over 30 kg) with high aggressiveness are generally referred to. There is no uniform external appearance, the colors vary.
In Switzerland , the bandog is on the breed list in the canton of Zurich ; Keeping, breeding and importing are prohibited there.
In Austria , the bandog is on the rattle list in two of the three list-leading federal states ( Lower Austria and Vorarlberg ). Depending on the federal state, a " certificate of competence " (Lower Austria) or a special permit from the mayor (Vorarlberg) is required.
