I'm sorry I cant do much from here, but I think this is a shame

Ottawa passed legislation on pitties....IT SUCKS

They are not banning pit bulls or other breeds they are saying they have to be spayed or neutered unless you are a licensed breeder. I think this is long overdue but for all dogs. This will protect pitties from byb's.

Actually not because someone could start off playing good to get a lisence then start breeding all of their dogs. Also, what would happen to owner handlers? That would ruine our sport.

a stand needs to be taken for sure, the list just keeps growing larger, last I check over 90 breeds were banned in italy, including-collies, border collies, corgies... one look at italy and you have proof that BSL snowballs, if you ban 1 breed for a single dog attack that you would have to do the same with ALL breeds, we would have more dogs

I think BSL is awful, but I don't know how I feel about this "protest"...

I mean, how is not going to a dog show going to do anything (except help the competition)?

People are less trustworthy than dogs in my honest opinion! And we trust humans with guns, alcohol, cars....etc!

Anything can be dangerous in the wrong person's hands! DOGS included. But don't punish the dogs for what stupid people do!!

The STUPID politicians aren't just to blame for this, it's our horrible and biased media.
