  • Welcome back!

    We decided to spruce things up and fix some things under the hood. If you notice any issues, feel free to contact us as we're sure there are a few things here or there that we might have missed in our upgrade.

I like many of you am just so fed up with BSL. I love all dogs, but i have come in contact with more of these little dogs or even Labs that are more aggressive then most Mastiff, GSD, Rott, or Pit breeds. Anyone else care to comment?

bog dogs are more dangerous than little dogs ....... tenacious dogs are even more so ...... they can't legislate against stupid people , so they have to single out types of dogs to try and protect society from the stupidity of those folks . responsible intelligent dog owners end up paying the price , as is usual with any law designed to protect folks from the irresponsible stupid people around them ......

We have two dogs in the neighborhood whom I have seen attack others... a lab and a cocker spaniel.

And there are 4 mastiffs and a rottie on my block...

Is there anything specific about bsl that you object to, because it varies from a country to another? For exemple, in my country you are required, if you own a dog belonging to a breed deemed dangerous, to microchip our dog and always have a leash a muzzle when you take them out. There are a few breeds that require the own be over 18 and not committed any crimes involving physical violence. That's pretty much it. I don't find it that bad, considering that, while I could defend myself against a bichon or even a lab, I don't know if that were the case with a 50+ kg mastiff or Rottweiler or something similar. And while my dog is sweet and well behaved, that is not the case with every other dog. Of course, it's usual the idiots that don't educate their dogs that allow them to run wild. Anyway, as marke said, you can't protect the society from stupid people, so you try to limit the ways they manifest their stupidity.
And yes, I would love to be able to take my very well mannered Cane Corso for a walk, without being nipped and barked at by stupid little critters,
 
Good input from you all! I just see more calm big dogs like German shepherds, Matiff's, Rott's etc then i do the little dogs lol
