All I'm reading here is a story about two dog owners who have no interest in obeying the law ... hardly encouraging to anyone concerned about the future of dog attacks in this country.

And why is it so important to society that people should have the privilege of owning a dangerous dog? And how is your desire to socialize your dog any solution to the problem?

No offense to you personally ... but all I'm hearing is a lot of selfish whining about "what I want" and no concern whatsover about the fact that people are at risk in our society due to dog attack.

Thats a big thing that bothers me about this ban...how the fawk are you suppose to socialise your Bull breed when it isnt allowed in parks, can't be off leash, has to be muzzled...etc.  This dog requires serious socialisation at a very young age, yet this law prevents responsible owners from doing just that.  How is it helping the situation?
