I just read a story about Denver and their Breed Specific ban.

The story here is of a dog named Forrest. He happened to live on the outskirts of Denver. One day he got board, went for a stroll and found himself in Denver’s Pit Bull banned area. You will see that this story does have a somewhat happy ending considering what it could have been.
I am not a Pit Bull but, I am a terrier and above all, I am a dog brother.

What a bunch of bull, about pit bulls. Forrest the Dog Lives

For some reason people have decided that all pit bulls are dangerous.
For years it was German Shepard’s that were said to be dangerous, then Chow Chows, Doberman Pinchers, Rottweilers…..The list goes on as to what the media decides is a bad breed. Yet, for years Cocker Spaniels held the #1 spot for biting incident reports (at least in our town). No one ever stood and screamed for a ban against Cocker Spaniels! If they had that would have also made me mad!

When my people had a pit bull named Tess they attended several ADBA Pit Bull shows. All the Pits there participated in weight pulls, hang time, all around ‘good looks’… These were not pits that were specially bred to be nice; they just had nice owners that took responsibility for their dogs!

As for Las Vegas, OMD!! The dog parks here are full of Pit Bulls! They come in every size, shape, and color (some are really cute, I might add). Heck, when we all get together it is a blast! See, we dogs are not predigest or breedist. I could care less what you look like! If you want to play then I am game! Maybe the ‘officials’ in Denver should spend some time with us at the park before they start making crazy claims. And if they want to see 2 mean dogs, they should meet the Chihuahua’s down the street. Everyone runs for high ground when they get out! Even the Pit Bulls are afraid.

As one of the blogdogs here at Dogs with Accessories Blog, I want you to know that; I think Denver would better serve its community by banning stupid mean people! There are no bad dogs, just bad owners!

Ok, I will get off my doghouse and let you go read the story yourself!

More power to my 4 legged brothers and sisters! Paw Power!
