Interesting. The article says police found the dog at the property when visiting for a different reason and obtained a warrant to seize it. Then pressed charges because the owner hadn't complied with the new laws.

Wonder what happened to the dog, surely no chance of rehoming if it's that aggressive?

Bernese Mountain Dogs - not generally aggressive, they are herding dogs basically. Dachshunds are terriers, so have terrier instincts (digging etc). I wouldn't have put either breed in the frame, but maybe he fell over (he'd had a knee op) and something went horribly wrong? The neighbour said the Bernese would fight/play loudly a lot. They are BIG dogs though but I think generally known to be quite gentle
 
Too many dogs together and you risk a pack forming and then hell breaks loose.

Case in point:

Son charged after mother killed by his pack of seven pit bulls (msn.com)

His mother was attacked and mauled so badly they had to amputate her leg, then she died a few days later. According to police he was more bothered about his fence being damaged and the cops taking away his dogs than he was about his mother lying savaged.
 
I saw two what looked exactly like XL bullies today, being walked unmuzzled by a woman who could barely hold on to them.

They growled and lunged at me and I wasn't even near them. Why on earth would you have them as pets.

I have reported it, I don't expect that the police will do anything, but given the dogs general behaviour and how she was struggling with them I would put money on them attacking someone in the future given the chance.

Actually fair play to the police, they have taken it really seriously.

What did the police do?

There was an XL wandering around unleashed outside a block of flats near me. The owner was chatting on his phone and smoking skunk whilst the dog mooched about (could smell the weed from across the road 😩).

Obvs couldn't be arsed to take the thing for a walk, happy to just let it tit and piss on the little patch of greenery outside the flats while he smoked his foul smelling weed
