Ridgeland, MS breed ban

This is rediculous.

Seriously, it makes me so mad. I could go on about the reasons why but it comes down to ONE thing...RESPONSIBILITY. Any dog can be "dangerous"...my chihuahua has been known to bite when antagonized. Should we ban them too??

I rescued a pit bull from our local shelter when she was about 3 months old. She had been used as bait for fighting and recovered from a drug bust. When she went for her first checkup at the vet, they found out she had a broken jaw. A broken jaw at 3 MONTHS OLD. So she's probably got fighting genes in her and is doomed to be a killer..... right??

Here she is trying to suffocate my mom.

And here she is clearly trying to eat my husband.

Seriously...she is the sweetest, most loving dog. She thinks she is a big baby. The most dangerous thing about her is that she might nibble you while trying to give you kisses. It would KILL me if I had to give her up because someone decided her whole breed was "dangerous." YES there are dangerous dogs out there....punish them. Punish their owners. Don't punish everyone.

And now that I'm good and pissed off...I'm going to bed.
