i am gonna just rant a bit here....
Today I invited someone to come to a dog room.. they are trying to get help for the bill that is going on in FL.. All they were asking for were photos of dogs ... Who doesn't love to show off their dogs..
anyway... these people claim to love dogs, many of them have bully breeds or breeds that would be affected by the proposed bill in FL...
what this person was met with was scarcasim.. Flip attitudes and people that just gave them an all and all out hard time..
How can anyone call themselves dog lovers and just turn their head on these bills... It is not just the APBT that is being targeted.
It is a sad day and time what we live in.. people that just seem to take the "it will never happen to my dog" attitude..
These bills these laws that people are trying to pass hurt EVERYONE they hurt EVERY BREED Of dog...
they are adding Siberian Huskies to the lists and Alaskian Mals....
If we all turn a blind eye to these proposed laws then we are all turning a blind eye on dogs as a whole.. we are saying that we don't really care that scoiety is trying to take away our freedoms to choose, to make our own educated decisions.. what we are saying by turning our heads to these proposed laws is that we don't care if we are told what we can and what we can't have... It is BIGGER then just dogs guys... what is going to be next ... are we going to allow them to tell us how many children we can have? what type of car we can drive?
I know that this might seem to be taking things to an extreme but i gotta tell ya when i am ready to own dogs again and get back out there i would really like to have a CHOICE as to what i own.
We are here on this board, we have come together because of a common love.. we need to stand together to help out the dogs that we all admire.
There are familys out there that also love their dogs we should be working for all of them as well as ourselves.
Education is the key to everything.. We tend to devide our loyaltys between what we feel is the APBT the AMST and the American Bully.. to me a breed specific law is just that it doesn't sepperate..
well i dont know what else to say that will not be more rambling..
It just saddens me that we can't pull together and fight harder to keep these laws from being passed.
