I live in Saskatchewan, Canada. So far there is not a problem with breed banning. Until today!
I opened up the paper to see a letter to the editor from a member of our community wanting breed banning.
I would like to also put a letter in the paper telling everyone what he is saying is wrong. Please help me with suggestions!
Thanks in advance.
This is what he had wrote:
"In the Regina Leader Post of Dec 27, 2006 there is a report from Hamilton, Ont, where two Rottweiler dog viciously attacked a two-year-old boy on Christmas day. It is reported the boy's ears were ripped off and his cheek was gaping open. What a sad story, especially on Christmas day.
In February of 2006, a German Shepherd dog mauled a five-year-old in Calgary. The boy needed 196 stitches to his head, face and neck in order to repair the damage and save his life. Another tragedy.
There are a number of these kinds of attacks reported each year in the papers, radio and T.V., where children are mauled by large dogs of different breeds. Those attacks are devastating and in a few cases, result in death.
Everytime I read about these kinds of tragic incidents, I wonder when goverments, federal, provincial, civic and local authorities are going to take measure to bring forth some form of legislation to ban those types of large vicious dogs in our towns and cities.
I know there are arguments on both sides of the issue, and some will say that it's not the fault of the dog, and then maybe the owners are responsible. When I read these kind of reports, I don't think there needs much debate as to what needs to be done.
For those that may have strong arguements against banning large, vicious dogd, just think what you would do if it happens to your son or daughter who experiencedc such a trauma with all the pain and suffering. What would your answer be then.
There are already a number of governments, cities and towns in Canada and the US that have some form of legislation banning most large vicious dogs regardless of breed.
Let out fathers act now, before such a tragedy his our community.
SUGGESTIONS PLEASE.........OR INFORMATION!!!!!!!!!
