APPROVE THE NEW PIT BULL LAW - End BSL in Denver!


APPROVE THE NEW PIT BULL LAW - End BSL in Denver!
The Issue
The ASPCA, CDC, The Humane Society of the U.S., The American Animal Hospital Association, The American Veterinary Medical Association, American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior ALL OPPOSE BANNING SPECIFIC BREEDS.
Breed Specific Legislation is counter-effective, misguided, and unjust. The Denver City Council approved the end of a 30 year long Pit Bull ban with a 7-4 vote and we are just waiting for Mayor Michael Hancock to approve it. He is still undecided. There are countless unbiased, peer reviewed research articles that show Pit Bulls have excellent temperament. This includes temperament tests that score Pit Bulls in the same category as Golden Retrievers (link below). Let’s help him see that Pit Bulls behave like any other breed if they are treated like any other breed! Do not punish properly raised and treated Pit Bulls and their families for no viable reason.
