IF YOU ARE BREEDING YOUR ANIMALS --- DO NOT ADD ME !!!
If your profile is set to Private, I am sorry, but I can no longer add you without some sort of message stating why you would like to be added. I have had too many problems accepting "private profiles" that were spammers.
Breed-specific legislation (BSL), is any law, ordinance or policy which pertains to a specific dog breed or breeds, but does not affect any others. The term is most commonly used to refer to legal restrictions or prohibitions on the breeding and ownership of certain breeds.
BSL is on the rise around the world. BSL targets specific breeds of canine and either (A) restricts them severely or (B) completely bans them from areas.This means that all dogs of the banned breed must be removed from the area or euthanized.
But breed bans don't work. They target all dogs of a breed... the innocent as well as the guilty.
Think BSL does not affect you ?
These are just some of the dogs that are affected by BSL in the United States:
Airedale Terrier, Akita, Alapaha Blue Blood, Alaskan Malamute, Alsatian Shepherd, American Bulldog, American Pit Bull Terrier, American Staffordshire Terrier, Australian Cattle Dog, Australian Shepherd, Belgian Malin, Belgian Sheepdog, Belgian Tervuren, Blue Heeler, Boerbul, Borzoi,
Boston Terrier, Bouvier Des Flanders, Boxer, Bulldog, Bull Terrier, Bull Mastiff, Cane Corso, Catahoula Leopard Dog, Chinese SharPei, Chow Chow, Doberman Pinscher, Dogo De Argentino, Dogue De Bordeaux, English Mastiffs, English Springer Spaniels, Fila, Fox terrier, French Bulldog, German Shepherd Dog, Golden Retriever, Great Dane, Great Pyrenees, Italian Mastiff, Keeshond, Labrador Retriever, Leonberger, Mastiff, Neopolitan Mastiff, Newfoundland, Presa Canario, Pug, Rottweiler, Saint Bernard, Samoyed, Scottish Deerhound, Siberian Husky, Staffordshire Bull Terrier, Tosa Inu
The time for all dog owners to act against breed specific legislation is now! Don't wait until your dog is threatened, it may be too late.
