How many times do people need to realize that it’s the PERSON not the animal that’s behind bad behavior. Just watch Cesar Milan (“the dog whisper”) sometime. He’s proven it over and over again. Why was the dog not spayed/neutered in the first place? More dogs to be euthanized for people’s ignorance.

Ban one breed and people will only find another breed to victimize and create and “fighting” dog…. Next thing you know, we’ll be banning rottweilers, dobermans, and all the other “dangerous” breeds.

it is not the dogs it is the owners…you can train a poodle to be a killer but becasue of their size the bad owners who want to fight dogs for fun pick the strongest breeds…the pit bulls….they are beautiful and loyal and only want to please their owners…..so if the owner is a horrible person the poor dog suffers…NOT FAIR…

as for hte mom who left her baby alone unsupervised..shame on her…the puppies i am gathering were playing but because of their strength..they may have gotten excited..maybe the child pulled their tail…no one knows…that mother should never have left her baby alone…leave the pit bulls alone already…

I have a companion pitbull who is wonderful, sweet, loyal, and well behaved- she was rescued off the street after severe malnourishment and has proven to be an awesome dog…..

We must continue to educate people who do not know or understand the pitbull breed and the issues surrounding BSL. For it is through their ignorance that laws have passed that have caused many innocent animals to die needlessly just because they were a “pitbull” and lived in a certain district. Any person who takes the time to look deeper into this issue would come to know that this in itself is an atrocity that must be stopped. Let’s make this right by enacting better laws that hold the people accountable that cause this breed to suffer so terribly through inhumane dog fighting and tactics they use to create an unsocialized, aggressive animal-PEOPLE have done this. Dogs are not just born that way. The positive, countless testimonies of pitbull guardians is proof of this….

Gee, no one seemed too concerned when I was bit by a chihuauha or however you spell it. Yea, all the bites I have gotten are from SMALL dogs… you know, the sweet ones. Yea, some are, but not all.
We have a pittie as part of our family. he is a doll and ALL the KIDS love him… and he loves them too. Didn’t anyone learn from the holocaust in germany? this is a holocaust for dogs… sad but true!

ONCE AGAIN..IT IS NOT THE BREED!!! IT IS THE IRRESPONSIBLE OWNERS!!!!! I have boxers, some very large, and they have been mistaken for Pitts so how can a UNEDUCATED dog officer know the difference just by looking at the dog?? My first 2 boxers were raised with 5 Rotts & 2 English Bulldogs, and I now have 7 boxers!! PUNISH THE OWNERS NOT THE BREED!
