Restricted/Banned breeds: Borzoi, St. Bernard, Great Dane, Malamutes

Who's breed is going to be next? It honestly scares me who they will pick to BAN next...

That what scares me! While neither of my dogs are purebred, sometimes they also pick on the mixes. Lacey most likely has GSD and Rottie in her, best we can tell, and Layla most definately has GSD in her and we'll have to see what else as she grows. All dog lovers need to ban together to fight BSL or 'your' dog could be next.

I am afraid that even a dog that is considered a pit mix is banned.. Friends of mine carry the shot record from the vets saying anything but a pit mix...

I totally agree with you, Annette.

Breed bans are one of the most outragous things I've ever heard of. How ignorant can some people be? I'm glad no breed bans are here......

Shar pei & Rottie banned in Smithfield Utah, according to listing. (I'm curious as to why those 2 breeds are chosen to be banned)

I'm glad to see you guys are "getting" it. Now let's do something about it. I will post How BSL on one breed will effect mixes because of dna.

You are so right! Denver has one of the worst BSL's there is but I bet you anything there is still plenty of dog fighting going on. I believe it was pit chick that said, "Outlaw Pit Bulls only outlaws will have them" Something along that line.

In the Netherlands pitbulls have been banned since 1994. Since the ban there's only been an increase in similar type dogs - Presa Canario & Bordeaux - and so those who want to project a type of image or menace will find a way to do so.

Heres a site with all the States that have BSL. A lot of States are banning rotties. Who's breed is going to be next? It honestly scares me who they will pick to BAN next..

Excellant site shows how & what we can do. Sample letter for when BSL laws come to your town, or even use before the do, and also use the Best Friends Link in main thread.
