Procedure descriptions

Keeping a fighting dog - apply for a behaviour test

If you keep or want to keep a fighting dog, you need a licence to keep a fighting dog.

You do not need a licence if the fighting dog status of your dog has been refuted.

To disprove the fighting dog status, you must present proof that you have already passed a behaviour test or apply for a behaviour test.

In the behaviour test, your dog's basic obedience and behaviour in various situations are tested. In addition, the equipment used to keep the dog (lead, collar or harness, muzzle) will be assessed.

The dog's behaviour is decisive for passing the test.

Please note the following information:

Dogs of the breeds concerned are classed as fighting dogs over the age of 6 months. If necessary, registration for the test must be made in good time beforehand.
If your dog passes the behaviour test, the certificate to be issued is limited to the statement that your dog is highly unlikely to be a fighting dog at the time of the test due to the behaviour shown in the test.
If your dog is less than 15 months old at the time of the successfully passed behaviour test, a repeat test is required between the ages of 15 and 18 months.
If your dog proves to be increasingly aggressive and dangerous at a later date despite having passed a behaviour test, it is irrefutably considered a fighting dog.
If your dog has already successfully passed a test in another country and its status as a fighting dog has been officially refuted there, you can submit the existing certificate to the competent authority. For details, please contact the authority responsible for you.
