Ohio HB 366 -- Urgent Help Needed
Ohio HB 366 is in trouble. From the reports I've heard, there is really no one on the House Committe (the Infastructure, Homeland Security and Veteran Affairs Committee) that seems willing to work to push this bill forward. This bill is very much in danger of dying in committee.
Let's discourage Breed Specific Legislation!!

Subject: OH Bill 366
Hello Representative ___________,
I am a resident of ________, OH and I support the Ohio Bill HB 366 that will remove pit bulls and pit bull types from the definition of vicious dog in the State of Ohio.
Breed Bans only punish the breed, and not the deed of dog fighting. Nor does it make the public any safer. Only responsible dog owners are punished when Breed Specific Legislation is introduced. Nor is it fair to label any dog based on its breed to be Aggressive. Profiling is wrong and unfair. Many Pit Bulls are raised to be very well-tempered, well-mannered, loving dogs. They are also used for Therapy dogs and Service dogs. The breed as a whole should not be punished. Instead bad dog owners should be punished.
Please support the Ohio Bill HB 366.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
