If by “regulated” you mean ‘rounded up and exterminated’ then I agree.
Agree.
About a half mile from my house a young woman was attacked and viciously mauled by a Pitbull that jumped over a 4 foot chain link fence to get her as she was jogging by on the sidewalk.....................
Megan, you could be my lost sister! ;-D
I’ve been looking for a dog for a couple of years since my last one passed away, so I thought I’d check out some Humane Society shelters (which I have never done), somebody’s always given me a dog.
My local shelter for the last decade and even before that usually maintains about 90 to 95% pitbulls, so all monies that are going to these humane shelters are going there to keep pits alive and fed. Nobody wants them.
I know that if I was in a survival situation I probably want to have three or four pit bulls around me but then that would be a survival situation.
Is there really a need for pit bulls? They were bred for fighting and still retain that hereditary aspect.
I have met some good pit bulls but as far as I’m concerned it’s a role of the dice on that.
Homeowners insurance won’t cover people with dogs such as mastiffs and pitbulls, or if so, the insured will pay a much higher premium with mandated options where the homeowner has to keep the blacklisted animal behind a suitable fence inspected for certain codes and on a chain in addition to the fence.
I wouldn’t generally use the registration word but these animals are time bombs in a lot of cases, and some people train them to be this way as an extension of their own psychopathic violent tendencies, I just don’t think there’s any place for those mastiffs and pit animals, Any dog can fight but a territorial dog like a big terrier that’s full on capable of maiming and killing by instinct? In an instant? No.
