What is your opinion on BSL2007-11-25 2:53:23

It's too bad irresponsible owners and breeders can make it so people will have to get rid of their pets.

Personally I think BSL is BS. It will not solve the problem. Because even if you got rid of one breed the will be another and another. Some people just should not own some breeds. I think if a breed is deemed a problem then a person should have to obtain special permits and have special precautions (like fencing insurance etc. Some dogs that attack are owned by irresponsible people who do not care. But if you make it owning a certain breed difficult or monitored they are not going to wan the reponsiblity or cost. It protects the dog from being exploited and hurt plus innocent people. And there should be enormous fines for those who violate it.

I posted this once before, but I can't remember where...

Cool website that details why BSL sucks, who has it, who doesn't, alerts, etc. Be sure to check out the link on the left "Read about it." The author takes a hypothetical look at the effect BSL would have if implemented in her neighborhood. It's very enlightening! She also details how other laws (like no-chain laws or harsher penalties for irresponsible owners) could be implemented realistically and the more postive effect it would have on safety (versus BSL).

The author has another site, happypitbull.com, which is my personal favorite for great and positve pit bull info.

Pitbulls today.another breed tomorrow.It wont work.

How to fix the problem -- education, strict(er) penelties for illegal use, owner training (what dog owner in general wouldnt benefit from this?)

This problem will never end but maybe one day it will get better.
