A relative volunteers at a “downtown” animal shelter. Nearly 100% of the animals in the shelter are pitbulls, abandoned in the hood. Its yet another form of welfare, and a further sign of the “ghettoization” of the USA.
“Nearly 100% of the animals in the shelter are pitbulls”
Same in my area and I’m 40 miles and 2 peninsulas removed from the hood. When a regular dog comes in, it’s gone in seconds.
I’m not against a euthanasia program for these cast offs, it’s a sad affair, but come on... it’s ridiculous.
I read an article that talked about registering pit bulls with owner classes and licensing for people who want to have pit bulls. That would cut down on the amount of Pit Bulls that just get put out there and sucked up by ‘bangers only to be left to the shelters in fairly short order.
Our local shelter here in Ohio is also overflowing with pit bulls and pit mixes. Frankly, I’m amazed that they are even available for adoption, due to possible liability issues. I thought they would be put down upon entry to the shelter.
Is there any culture that has Pit Bull recipies?
Kind of like cat, but needs a slow cooker.
