Pitbulls are products of their enviroment just like any animal including humans. They are what we make them. WE as pet owners should take more responsibility when raising anything put in our charge. Aggressive dogs are found among any breed or crossbreed; and Breed specific legislation and breed bans are not effective solutions to the problem of dog attacks; and The problem of dog attacks is best dealt with through a comprehensive program of education, training and legislation encouraging responsible ownership of all breeds; WE the undersigned petition the United States Government and underlying States to refrain from enacting provincial animal control legislation that is breed-specific, and instead implement a comprehensive bite prevention strategy that encourages responsible ownership of all breeds.

So tired of this stigma. Pits are so misunderstood. Mine is a total couch potato.

This is ridiculous. Dogs arent born mean. They are trained mean. Treat all breeds the same and focus on the bad owners.

My pit is the biggest baby ever. Loves kids and strangers alike. Stupid laws like this only punish good owners.
