The ban was in the Ottawa paper awhile ago. I think I still have that paper in my room.

They will allow registered pitt bulls as pets.

IMO I think ALL dogs should be registered & all dogs should be tracked (as in last vet visit, moved, living, temperment, ect). There r too many dogs being abused, tossed out & too many dogs attacking people.

Canada Post is even haveing major problems with dogs. & now they refuse to go to a home with an unsecured dog.

A few weeks ago a postman was attacked by a dog, who ran through the screen window & attacked!!

No dog should ever be that agressive!! Barking through a door, is ok, but snarling or snapping at a postman, NO. We taught Max who the postman was & we NEVER had a problem.

When ever the postman came over we would open the door, say hello & he would greet Max & then leave.

When Max was loose at my dads place, he would woof in the backyard & run to thew front of the house, only cause he hear a noise. Max would see the postman & start whining & wagging his tail like crazy & begging for a pat. He would do the same anyone who walked up to the house & left.

Entering the house IMO is different. If ur stupid enough to break into someones house & end up being torn to shreds by the dog thats INSIDE, is too bad. Being attacked by a dog outside should never happen, not even in the dogs backyard.

I have no problem with this ban, aslong as registered owners can have these dogs, mutt or pure. There is nothing wrong with the breed except it is too easy to get them to be mean & when the owner has turned them mean, they r just too powerfull. But remember, its the Golden who attacks MUCH more often!! But the golden is a much weaker dog so the damage isn't as bad as a pitt bulls. So ALL dogs should be registered.. Even CATS!!!
