BSL is sweeping across our nation. Most people think that
only Pit Bulls are being banned, they turn their heads and think
it wont happen to them. Well that is simply untrue there
are many breeds of dog turning up on BSL lists across the
nation. Aurora
Colorado has around 10 breeds deemed dangerous on their list
which includes the Cane Corso. We all need to work together to end
this. How in America, the land of the free, can you not own
the type of dog you want to. It is not the dogs fault.
Owner responsibility is what we need. City's need to
enforce dangerous dog laws that are already in place. I believe that the media plays a big role in this problem of BSL. If there is a pit bull bite it is cover page news VICIOUS MAULING BY PIT BULL. If it was a golden retriever it would be A Golden Retriever Accidentally bites a girl or something to that affect. The media plays it up. Denver has euthanized hundreds of dogs since the reinstated their Pit Bull ban. Many were loving family pets. I don't think that people who fight their dogs and are using them for illegal purposes were the ones that lost their dogs. Think about it, if they are already doing something illegal like fighting their dogs do you think when Denver said you have so many days to get rid of your pits before they are illegal and will be confiscated they just had a change of heart to not break laws and just turn them in or found them homes outside the city?! I doubt it. Please Visit the following links to learn more about BSL and how to fight it. http://www.rott-n-chatter.com/rottweilers/laws/breedspecific.html http://www.pbrc.net/breedspecific.html
The following are some pictures taken at the AKC Denver show in February of 2006. The American Staffordshire Terriers participating in these shows had to have special permits to get in the city and had be out of the city by 9 pm each night. We went and took Athena with us. We spent the day setting at the Anti-BSL booth speaking with people and trying to educate the general public.
