Best Friends Animal Society has dedicated an entire campaign to challenging breed discrimination and restoring the image of Pit Bulls and other breeds deemed "dangerous." You can help Best Friends put an end to BSL (Breed-specific Legislation) for as little as $10, by wearing the "I'm Tired of BSL" bracelets that show you care!
BSL is discrimination, pure and simple. Yet, it continues to proliferate in states and municipalities across the country as the solution to curbing violence involving “dangerous” dogs. The breeds most often restricted or banned are Pit Bulls (American Staffordshire Bull Terriers), Rottweilers, Chow Chows, German Shepherds and Doberman Pinschers and, unfortunately, the list is growing.
The debate on BSL has become very heated, but those who oppose it include some major organizations, like the American Kennel Club (AKC), the American Medical Veterinary Association and Best Friends Animal Society. These organizations challenge that dog control problems are people problems, not breed-specific problems. Banning a breed simply encourages irresponsible or criminal dog owners to switch breeds. It doesn’t solve anything. Furthermore, it punishes dogs who are doing good in the world and the owners who need them — therapy dogs, search and rescue dogs or police dogs, for example. The better solution to the issue is strongly enforced dog control laws, such as leash laws, increased public education and more generic dangerous dog legislation, that punishes the specific dog and owner involved in an incident, rather than discriminating against the breed.
Help us stop BSL! You can make a difference!
