:rolleyes:

I never think about what could happen, I make sure that it doesn't happen.  Anybody that owns this breed (or any large/dominant breed) should be aware of the damage they can do.  I have a 6 foot high fenced in yard and I STILL go out with him everytime when he's locked down in the backyard.

If there was any reasonable way to 100% ensure that irresponsible owners don't ever get a potentially lethal dog without a ban, I'd say let's do it ... if you can think of a way, I'm all ears.

You and I have gone through this before...

We can't be 100% sure, but banning doesn't do anything. Great, youve taken away that pitbull breed dog from the guy that lets his dog sit at the end of the leash go crazy at the people walking by, but he quickly replaces it with one of the breeds I listed above....the dangerous dog legislation doesnt do much here, does it?

Theres a house down my street that has chocolate lab tied up in front. A freakin LAB, and this thing goes nuts at anything walking by. I'd hate for him to brake away one day.

ZTW, youve heard this from me before but for the others...when they were going through court for all of this, there was a lady that had lost a child to a dog attack...she explained her situation...similar as above, dog tied up in front yard and tried hacking away at people as they walked by. It was a siberian Husky. A responsible dog owner would know that dogs, any dog can get very aggresive when tied up to a leash/chain. This dog broke away from the leash and mauled this woman's child to death. They fought in court for a very long time to have the dog destroyed, only to see him playing with his new husky puppy a week later.

Liek she said in court, her problem wasn't a pitbull, it was a dumb owner that is clueless with dogs. Any dog.
