What is wrong with these people?! The ignorance is astounding! Why not ban the careless owners who let their dogs run loose, the abusive owners who help make their dogs agressive, the horribly cruel puppy mill breeders who don't care about their animals' well being let alone the temperament of the dogs they breed? Why not ban, for that matter, people with arrogant and ignorant attitudes towards these animals? Has any one of you that supports these bans bothered to check into the honorable and dangerous services these breeds have provided? The airedale, german shepherd, among others for example served the troops in wars! The german shepherds, rottweiler and belgian malinois among others serve and protect our law enforcement officers! The saint bernard rescued people from being frozn to death in snowy mountains! Please, lets get together and look at it with our brains instead of.....

Blame the people, not the animals.

Jodi

The list is ludicrous. I agree that we should punish the owner not the dog. If a dog is loved and trained properly it doesn't matter what the stereotype the breed falls into it will not be harmful or dangerous. I would love to know where my husky is banned because I will make a point of never allowing him to go there. They will have to kill me first before I let anyone take my baby from me. The person who created this list should be banned from humanity.

Lisa Baker

It is not the breed but the owner that makes the dog bad. Who in their right mind would want to get read of most of the dogs in the country because of the breed. If you teach the dog to fight and to kill it is your fault the dog is bad, not the dogs fault. I have 9 black lab/weiner dogs, 1 alasken husky/healer, 1 shar-pie and a pekenese none which are not KILLERS JUST lapdogs

Pete Dixon

There seems to be a huge amount of irresponsible and misleading information surrounding this issue circulating on the net - and we all know what happens when you cry wolf.

Alee

I guaranty that when BSL comes to my town I will fight it with everyting I got. There's no way I'd let them take my Husky.

Reina

anyone who wants to take my dog will literally have to put a bullet through my skull first, my pup is shar pei/husky/heeler mixed all 3 breeds on this list i'll fight BSL to my death

Kandice

This is not true. they havn't banned all these breeds. impossible

Faith

In response to Jackie. Breeds are not targeted because they are inherently aggressive but because public panic deems them to be so. Any dog can act aggressively when not properly socialized or trained. Just as not all pit bulls are aggressive, not all golden retrievers are aggressive, and not all newfoundlands are aggressive. However, I have met my fair share of aggressive golden retrievers, an aggressive newfoundland (very scary due to its size) and numerous other dogs that have not had early socialization, training or are simply owned by irresponsible dog owners who allow them to be off leash. If cities & counties punished all irresponsible dog owners irrespective of the breed then we would be far safer. Strangely enough, with all the media hype in the three years as a dog (pit bull) owner I have never once met a bad pit bull. Punish bad owners, not an entire breed.

Jackie

Why don't you have a list where the breeds are banned right now along with a list of what areas are considering breed bans? This would be very helpful.

David

Where are golden retrievers banned? Or newfoundlands. And why? I have never heard of those breeds being banned anywhere or being considered aggressive.

Micki

When will the goverment realize it is not the dog breeds that are at a fault here. "There are no bad dogs just very bad dog owners!"

Tasha

Are there lists of what each state will not allow out there someplace?? This is ridiculous! If you are a responible owner why than punish??? I love my dog to pieces and they will have to fight me to get him! I'll move first!

Tiffany

is there a list of state by state bans on specific breeds?
