Same as when they last banned a breed. They must all be registered, muzzled, and neutered. If not, fines/seizure and possible imprisonment of the owner.
A perfectly reasonable way to sunset the breed.
Apart from because it's not a real bread, people will argue that it's not a bully wasting police time and effort having to seize and then categorise... time and money an already skint police force aren't going to want to do
It's reasonable to make a dog wear a muzzle the rest of its life despite having a good temperament? I disagree.
I assume that it applies to the dog in public, not while in your house. Even if it doesn't who is going to report someone for a dog not being muzzled in their own home?
I also assume it's only when in public places because the UK has had muzzle laws (in public places) off and on since the major rabies scares in the 1800s iirc.
In public? Yes.
It's like using a safety on a gun
