Don't Call Me Buddy .....
if this is how you treat your friends

BSL is NOT the Path to Public Safety because:

  • Many dogs are misidentified and consequently destroyed because of their apprearance
  • It is often difficult, even for experts, to determine the breed of a dog, particularly when considering mixed breed dogs
  • Breed -discrimination laws cause unintended hardship to responsible owners of friendly dogs who happen to fall within the regulated breed category
  • Breed -discriminatory laws compromise public safety by requiring officers to enforce regulations on dogs who may or may not be dangerous, instead of investing resources into proven, effective tactics that make the community safer
  • Every dog is an individual, with his or her own unique personality. A dog should be judged on temperment and not appearance.
  • The police and animal control will lose the public's trust by seizing and killing pets simply because of their appearance
  • Studies of pre and post-breed-ban dog bite rates in the United Kingdom and Spain concluded that their breed discriminatory laws had no effect whatsoever on reducing dog bites.
  • Italy recently revoked its breed restrictions, stating that the ban had no scientific justification.
  • Closer to home, Calgary has the lowest dog bite rates in 25 years without enacting breed discrimination.
  • Last but definitely not least, here in Nova Scotia it will create a conflict for any SPCA shelters who perform contractual work for animal control, given the SPCA official position of No Kill.

What DOES work to create safer communities:

  • Encourage residents to spay or neuter their pets (and charge higher license fees for unaltered animals)
  • Provide adequate due-process legislation provisions for dog owners through breed-neutral dangerous dog laws
  • Restrict tethering
  • Prevent reckess owners from having dogs
