The only thing I don't understand was why that lady spent so much time and energy writing that very well thought out article to those unworthy sad excuse for an organization called Peta. . .. Those peta people really get to me.

but yeah, great article.


It was written because un-fortunately PETA still has alot of sway when it comes to things like this. This organization actually made itself look even worse by writting the article that this lady was responding to.

Oh one MORE thing to add hahaha

To touch base on the whole licenseing thing. I mean that people should actually have to take a course to prove their ability to own one of these animals adn thus getting a licence to own. If they do not have a license and are in public or the dog is complained about the dog should immidiately be removed and taken to a shelter to be held for a certain amount of time giving the owner a chance to get it back if they can get the license, if they cant the dogs will be adopted out. It really wouldnt be that hard to do. It also gives some added limitations to backyard breeders. Now having to have the animals registered and the person being licensed, this will easily turn many bad owners away. There will always be issues with irresponsible owners, but why not take the steps to minimize it as much as possible?
 
I agree with your licencing idea labont. I commend you on starting a topic that has such controversy.
I live in ontario and find the ban is unfortunate. Im not sure if the ban is going to work like the government hoped it would. There are many ppl that still have pits that arent fixed and they dont wear muzzles. It was written in my local paper that the local humane society would not be going door to door seeing if ppl with pits have followed the law, but they would only enforce the law, when someone complains/rats on a person with a pit that is not following the guidlines. Why have the ban at all then? :huh:
 
A bit off topic but if we are goining to make people take tests/ courses top prove they are able to keep a dog we should do the same for people having children.
 
Having children and owning a dog are two completly diffrent things. Everybody has the natural right to have and raise a child in anyway they see fit.
 
People aparently have a natural right to bring a child into the world abandon it, beat it senseless, sexually abuse it.

But a dog... you should have a test... nonsense

I don't see where you're going with this. I don't agree with having to register a dog. But, raising a kid and owning a dog are two completely diffrent things that should not be compared.
 
I am going to agree and say its off topic, but all i was saying is why afford dogs more protection than children, i am, however, all for making people prove they are capable of raising any dog as i am calling for them to prove they are capable of raising children.
