He wants them all exterminated, but couldn't pull that one off, so he's making it hard for the owners.<BR/>Without socialization, which we know is very important to them, it could change their temperment. I think that is what he is counting on.<BR/>But many Bully owners are finding our own way of socializing them, hence the Bow Wow Pow Wow. I wrote The Londoner and invited other Pit bull owners to join in the fun.<BR/>Other cities are trying to make simular get togethers and...this is hush, hush for now, but an Association wrote us saying that once this has calmed down a little, they are wanting to make time in the off leash parks just for the pitties to run muzzedless and have fun.<BR/>That would be a BIG advantage to us.Connershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14768489273730846275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10075613.post-1130970776534079282005-11-02T17:32:00.000-05:002005-11-02T17:32:00.000-05:00The worst part of this is for us, the owners to tr...The worst part of this is for us, the owners to try with all our might to continue to socialize our dogs.<BR/>The government says, they are banned from Leash Free Parks, always muzzled and short leashed when out in public.<BR/>I'm now afraid to leave her outside while I run in the store, for fear she will be attacked or stolen. She works for me, bringing home my groceries that I can't on my own. This makes me as much as a victim (again) as her, as she's my arms in many ways.<BR/>Certain pet stores are even banning them. What is there to be afraid of when they are muzzled and leashed, when before, they loved and fussed over them prior to the ban?<BR/>To isolate them will bring about problems for them. You know what? I'm going to put on her muzzle right now and take her out for a walk. She DESERVES IT!Connershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14768489273730846275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10075613.post-1130963243358788122005-11-02T15:27:00.000-05:002005-11-02T15:27:00.000-05:00BSL laws make me so sick.

What are they going to to next, require that all members of a certain ethnic group are automatically banned from appearing in public without handcuffs, regardless of whether they have ever committed a crime or exhibited violent tendencies? Forcing a dog to wear a muzzle solely based on its breed is the <B>same thing</B>. Forcing these dogs to wear muzzles in public just perpetuates the stereotype that they are dangerous. It does nothing to protect or educate the public, since there are plenty of dangerous dogs of other breeds, or of mixed breed lineage. Stupid, stupid lawmakers.IndyPindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17995642798737607038noreply@blogger.com
