Dog breed list
Dog breeds restricted in Poland
A 2003 regulation of the Polish Ministry of the Interior lists the dog breeds considered aggressive in Poland. Keeping one requires a permit from the local municipality (wójt, mayor or city president). The list is about the breed, not the individual dog, and says nothing about a particular animal’s character.
4 breeds. Breeds from our encyclopedia that appear in the regulation (Dz.U. 2003 no. 77 item 687).
The full list (11 breeds): American Pit Bull Terrier, Perro de Presa Mallorquin, American Bulldog, Dogo Argentino, Perro de Presa Canario, Tosa Inu, Rottweiler, Akbash Dog, Anatolian Karabash, Moscow Watchdog and Caucasian Shepherd Dog. Keeping such a dog without a permit can be punished with detention or a fine. This is information, not legal advice: check the details with your local municipality.
