A Huge Number Of PitBulls are sentence to die next week

As of August 29th, 2005 a province wide Ban on Pitbulls will come into effect.   Any owners with pitbulls who have not registered their dogs 60 days prior to this date( The Grandfather Act ) will have their dogs seized and put down.     All dogs that have been registered are ordered to be neutered or spayed, if they have not, they will be seized and put down.   If any unregistered pitbulls are found, they will be seized and put down and the owners will be charged.     In Windsor Ontario, the city has declared that all Pitbulls must be turned in to be destroyed by August 29th, 2005. The Grandfather act will not apply to Windsor residents, and no one will be allowed to keep their pets no matter how long they have owned them, already 1000"s of pitbulls have been put down in the past year in Ontario, and 1000's more are expected to die after August 29th 2005.   No one will be able to import or breed Pitbulls in Ontario after August 29th 2005.

I am sorry people but I think this is horrible.   More people are attacked by other breeds then Pitbulls.   It is a proven fact.   I personally think this Ban is a cruel punishment for a very loving and caring breed.   Its not the dog that makes these dogs dangerous it is the owners who train these dogs for fighting that have given the Pitbull a bad name.  

What will they do next Ban other bully and mastiff type breeds???

 :iagree:  Saw an article were a baby's face was have torn off by a pit bull and guess who own the dog? the parents of the baby!! We used to have two in our neighborhood - a couple of houses down the block. When my wife use to take my oldest daughter for a stroll in her baby stroller, I use to follow them 6' behind packing my licensed 9mm - I had too. Saw those two dogs in action, in killing the mode, hurt a neighbor's dog pretty bad. My wife never knew why I always followed behind and why I always said not to go for a walk without me. I told her I did not want to miss out on anything. She had her suspicsions about me and the dogs.

A couple got loose where I live.  The police ended up using Mr Shotgun on them.

My dad had one. It was a very loving dog, though it was very destructive. It chewed up the mouldings in his house and even the exhaust on his wifes car. I am not a dog guy (especially dogs that drool), but I never was scared being around that dog. I hear they genetically have a hair trigger that can be set off, but in all the years that dog was around he never attacked anyone. That is the only personal experiance I ever had with this breed.

I say let people do and own what they want. If someone gets hurt hold them responsible.
Pit Bulls are the focus right now. People get hurt and killed all of the time owning Horses, Dogs, Cats, Snakes, Birds, and so on.
Do we really want the police and government telling us what we can and can't own.
(That 70s muscle car doesn't have all of the safety features a new car does, we should put it out of its misery before it hurts someone)
How many people live in the USA?
The news media loves to instill fear in the population, it makes us afraid of our neighbors, pets and walking across the street. So in turn we hide in our houses and watch TV for the next unfortunate accident or incident. Thats what they want. Don't talk to your neighbors they might be serial killers. Don't you think if we talked with one another instead of being afraid we could easily find the weirdos and keep an I on them?
The majority always rules the minority, eventually the majority will get around to something you want to do or have and take it away from you.

Geez, apparently one of my kids decided we needed to adopt a pitbull puppy last weekend...this may prove interesting. :eyes:

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

I would have to disagree with this line of thought. The Horses,Cats, snakes,and  birds generally arent attacking, maiming, and killing others in the neighborhood. When some gets maimed or killed by a PB, putting it to rest is "too little to late". Holding the owners  responsible is of little solace to the victims families.

There's a thread on favorite chew toys, I thought this guy's post was pretty funny! :smilielol:

QuoteI've been wanting to get a bully stick but don't want to spend the $13 to have it devoured 3 minutes later so I haven't...I just posted this on another thread:I am going to buy a coconut for my 3 year old and see if she will be determined enough to get it open. I saw it on Animal Planet i think and this dog worked at a coconut for hours and finally cracked it open and loved it.
She tears kongs up to pieces so I think a coconut would be a good challenge.

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

Nothing provides solice to a victims families.

So why take away my right to own something that makes me happy if it doesn't hurt anyone?
My dog hasn't killed or mamed and just because someone else's dog did doesn't predict or increase the chances that mine will.

If your dog is a PB, its genetics alone increase the chances.

The only genetics that make these dogs dangerous are the Retards, Ghetto Punks, and White Trash who train and mistreat these dogs to be mean & nasty. All dogs have the "Alpha" gene in them. They are , by nature, a pack animal. Wolves are led by a Alpha male & female. Thats how they survive. Those of you on this board who own more than one dog know full well that when you bring home a new dog, for the first few weeks, the dogs are getting to know each other and one dog will assert itself over the other or others. [That Alpha thing again]
It only seems more prevalent in Pit Bulls, Bulldogs, Rotties, Bull Terriers, etc...   because they were bred for a certain job. [REMEMBER, these are working class dogs] Yes, they are very powerful dogs, and it takes a Responsible Owner to take care of them.

Yes, its very sad that people get hurt and killed by among other things, a dog. But to just blame the breed, & and not punish the A$$*%&e who owns the dog, does nothing to fix the problem.

I hope that someday my brothers and sisters up north get sick and tired of that socialist govt and throw them out on their Asses. :rotz:

P.S. We, down here in the lower 48, need to do the same thing to our govt officials.               Just my   :Twocents: :blahblah:

Lowprofile is absolutely, 100% dead on the money. Genetics are not what make pit's mean its the freaking moron owners that dont have enough brains and resposibility to take care of themselves much less a dog. A dog has to be TRAINED to act a certain way, temperment is not genetic. My cousin owns two pitbulls and he has owned both of them since they were puppies. He had enough responsibility to spend HOURS training them (even to the point that they understand sign language). Even if my cousin or myself are wrestiling with the dogs they will not bite simply because they are trained well...   My :Twocents:

:flame: This topic pisses me off sooo bad simply because of the boneheads that just blame the breed. Same mentality that the freaking liberals use to try and take our guns away :cussing:

By the way I have been attacked by 3 different Rottweilers, a Chihuaua, and a Blue Heeler that almost killed another guy down the road from me but I have never had a Pit so much as growl at me...  :rotz:

See my post in the other pitbull thread about my feelings on this.


Let me tell you, if it was my dog, I'd be on the porch, with a fully loaded rifle in my hands, and a couple pistols in my belt, daring the bastards to try to take my dog from me.  My dog is part of my family, not a pet.  I treat him like I would treat my kid (if I had one).  Once again, the government blames everything else but the people who are truly responsible. :geez:
Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.  Especially if they have access to the internet.

I'm with you, Brother. I feel bad, not only for the dogs, but for the law enforcement officers & the Vets who have to enforce & carry out the execution of these dogs. What a bunch of spineless, socialist pigs the govt officials who wrote up this law are. Very bad Karma is comming their way.

Mustanghater, you should reread my post bro, I definately do not want Pitbulls to die!
I am a dog lover, especially bully type breeds.
My Father raised and bred pitbulls, his dogs were bred for one purpose and that was the game of the fight, don't get me wrong I am no advocator of fighting dogs, but only to say this is what my dad and his brothers did through out the 50's, 60's and 70's. And out of all those years of breeding and fighting dogs, not one single one of his dogs bit a human being, the breed is not human agressive.  Most fighting breeds were bred so that humans could work with them in the ring when they scratched their dogs in the pit, so they couldnt show any type of human aggression.  This charactoristic was frowned upon and dogs showing such behavoirs were never used for breeding.
It is these new breed of fighters who are feeding their dogs gun powder, and inbreeding that has given the breed a bad name.
Now please do not take my reply in the wrong way i do not advocate fighting dogs and I believe it to be cruel, I just know a thing or two about it since I grew up seeing it as a child.
I have owned over a dozen Pitbulls over the years and not one single one of my dogs ever bit a human being or showed any agression towards a human.
I now breed American Bandogge mastiffs, I own 4 dogs so Thread_marshell, I am sorry but I can not adopt the dog you found.
I just think that killing a large number of dogs because of the breed is just wrong and cruel.

I have had 4 pit bulls over the years, that is if you don't include the 1 set of 8 puppies my female had. They are a great breed of dogs. Definately loyal to their owners. Not by nature a threat to people but I'll admit they were breed over the centuries to be aggressive to other dogs. However I can also say that I had the female I have now, and when she was 1 year old I married my wife who had 3 cats at the time. My dog had never been around another dog or cat other than seeing them while on walks. But I can say that they lay down and take naps together, the dog and the 3 cats that is. The dog treats the cats and my 2 year old son all with care, and definately protects all of them. Barking at sounds outside if she knows my son or one of the cats is near.
