Pit Bulls
posted on January 10, 2005

If the present Animal Control Bylaw regarding vicious dogs was enforced then people and animals would have had better protection.

I fought for these amendments when there was an increase in dog attacks by pit bulls. It is not only the owners, but also the species that can be genetically manipulated to be vicious fighting machines. If breeders try to remove these dangerous traits they would be creating a different species and therefore have agreed with Lifeforce that the vicious type should be banned. Pit bulls are unpredictable and can snap at any time.

Our society must not condone the exploitation of any animal. In a compassionate society, we must protect the rights of animals to be able to live without fear and suffering. We must protect people from vicious people who want vicious dogs. The City of Vancouver must strengthen and enforce the Animal Control Bylaw.
