I'm sorry you are frightened of my dogs and are trying to have them killed because they are pit bulls.
I'm sorry you lack the understanding of this breed's true history,gentleness with people, wonderful temperament, intelligence and behavioral conformation.
I'm sorry you won't read the ATTS stats regarding our breed's true temperament, putting it in the top four for temperament, scoring better than breeds like Golden Retrievers, and cocker spaniels.
I'm sorry that you side with and protect animal abusers by marking the breed of dog, and not the irresponsibility of the owner. I'm sorry that by your logic I could steal a car, run some people over with it and then you can blame the make of car for the accident, as I walk free.
I'm sorry you generalize one breed of dog with one group of people.
I'm sorry you can't see the love and determination that many often highly educated, non-criminal and "normal" types of people show towards this breed and the great personal sacrifices that they make to take care of their dog responsibly.
I'm sorry you cannot go into the shelters and see the hundreds of abandoned and abused pit bulls, dying only for the insane "crime" of being born the breed they are.
I'm sorry you cannot see the look of disappointment in their eyes as someone walks by their kennel, and refuses to consider adopting them based on an ill educated fear mongering reporter.
I'm sorry that you cannot be there when the animal looks at a human for the last time, and in spite of betrayed by all humans they have met, their tail still wags as someone approaches with the syringe of Euthinol.
I'm sorry you cannot be there when law enforcement shoots one of your dogs dead
inside it's own home in front of the children it mutually loves for simply getting off the dog bed and walking over to say hello with it's tail
wagging.
I'm sorry you cannot be there to rescue pit bull puppies from a plastic bag in a dumpster, dumped there by someone switching their illegal, and inhumane activities to another, more lucrative breed.
I'm sorry you cannot understand the difference between canine and human aggression, in the way that this breed can.
Yes, I'm saying my pit bull is smarter then you.
I'm sorry that the medieval witch-hunting genetics of intolerance,generalization, and racism make you feel the need to vilify a breed of dog.
I'm sorry that justice, equality, tolerance, common sense are all things you hold dear as a fellow human being, and expect from others, but do not yourself offer them towards a pit bull or its caregiver.
I'm sorry that you don't take the constructive time to petition changes in the animal cruelty act, and in the criminal code that would deal out serious punishment to the real animal abusers.
I'm sorry you cannot see the disappointed look on a puppy's face when the people petting it quickly frown, and walk away when you tell them it is a pit bull.
I'm sorry you feel the need to terrorize my family and my dogs for crimes we never have and never will commit.
I'm sorry you don't have to live in fear of your dog's safety from hysterical, and mentally unstable people trying to inflict all manner of evil upon your dogs.
I'm sorry that you cannot see my breed working in some of the best Search and Rescue groups in the world, saving countless lives each year.
I'm sorry our media censors and refuses to print the breed name "pit bull' when in connection with a positive act such as saving a person or child from a burning house, drowning, wild attacking animals, etc.
I'm sorry you cannot see the many pit bulls registered as therapy dogs and bringing so much joy to another misunderstood, neglected demographic in our society, the senior
citizen.
I am sorry you can't see a pit bull kiss a child, step carefully over a kitten, or play in a sunbeam.
I'm sorry you cannot wake in the morning to
feel a warm pit bull cuddled next to you in bed, and know that you are their total world, and even if the house caught fire and trapped you, they would stay with you to the end.
But, now that I really think about it, I'm not at all sorry you don't own a pit bull--you do not deserve one.

DOGSTER ALERD,DOGSTER ALERD!Please Help Save 'Bruce' the pitbull mix from N. Ireland!
Bruce’s fate still undetermined
Bruce, a dog seized in Northern Ireland as being of the Pit Bull type, is still awaiting the appeal on his death
sentence.
The case was originally heard at Bangor Magistrates Court on 27th August, where Dr Mugford gave
evidence stating that Bruce was merely a friendly Staffordshire Bull Terrier.
Unfortunately the Magistrates’ concluded that Bruce was of the type and ordered his destruction.
However, Bruce’s owner is appealing this decision and following a brief hearing on the 12th November,
the case has been listed for mention on 12th January 2009 at which time a date for the appeal will be fixed.
Sadly for Bruce this means he’ll be spending more months incarcerated in kennels.
this is bruce his website,please go see it.

there are pictures from him and a u-tube clip where you can meet sweet bruce.
REMEMBER he did NOTHING wong,did not growl,attacked or biten anyone.
he will be killed just because he is a pit.
i contacted my bruce contact and this is what she emailed me.
Dear Nathalie,
Yes, Bruce is still in danger--his owner cannot obtain insurance for him and so she is urgently looking for a
rescue for him and has only got until the 29th of June or he will be put down!
This is so frightening--after all he and his family have been through.
If you can help Shannon to find somewhere safe for Bruce to live and be loved, that would be wonderful.
Thank you for checking back.
I live in Wisconsin, US so don't have any contacts that could help in southern Ireland--
but the sooner he is moved to safety the better.
This is the bebo for Bruce and if you post to this bebo, Shannon will get the message.
Please spread the word that Bruce needs rescue!
Thank you!
Margaret Reno
He needs help ASAP.
This is just breaking my heart.
I HATE BSL.
WHAT CAN WE DO DOGSTERS?
