Have you ever heard of training a pet? I guess not, your momma
failed.


Ah, the professional dog owner argument. Sure, I would have no problem with
legislation that limited pit bull ownership to those who took classes both for
the owner and with their dog and required that both pass an examination of
aptitude after same.

Of course when bad things happened under those conditions I would expect the
owner to be jailed for reckless endangerment since they had obviously cheated or
produced fraudulent proof of having taken the classes (since no one that had
taken the classes could possibly have an incident right?).

The current REAL problem is that any ordinary asshole can acquire these dogs and
not all of them are going to spend the time and effort to provide anything
beyond rudimentary training.

Is it your position that when Joe Average acquires and does NOT train his dog
extensively that the dog's danger to society is the same regardless of breed?
That breed doesn't enter into the equation at all?
