you mean the bans that Ontario is currently trying to overturn cause it does NOT work? Or the same ban that edmonton just overturned because well it doesn't work.

Breed specific bans work about as good as prohibition does...it doesn't.

You won't fix the attacks that huskies inflict, the ones border collies inflict, the ones labs inflict by banning pitbulls. If you want to ban a dog for biting ban them all and wrap us all in bubble wrap...OR teach proper dog ownership and a cultural shift towards proper dog ownership and education.

Banning just 1 breed(which by the way is a mix of about 20 different types of dogs) of the hundreds or recognized and thousands of hybrids is such a waste of time.

Oh just one more thing. There is no such dog as a pitbull, its a blanket characterization for a broad range of different dogs that have "pitbull looks"

Can you find this "pitbull" breed you speak of?


I wish sliver would disappear....
