peolpe dont want pitbulls to be leagal due ti the fact that they are known to be violent.
people who are afraid of animals will be controled by the animal , but people who show no fear of the animal will be able taim/train the animal. people in Camanche want to bann pitbulls due to a recent attack of a local labrador retrevor (www.whbf.com)
i completely disagree of the banning of pitbulls due to the fact of when I was younger I had a pitbull. hi namewas Tommy and he was the sweetest dog I ever had. the thing with any animal that comes from a violent or visious background/history can be taimed if you raise the animal properly from EX: puppy. you can raise any animal to be kind and loyal if you really wanted to. all you need to do is trteat it with love and respect and train them properly. clayton ruby launched the bann on monday september 5th 2010 and was wrong!!!!!

Avery - you make some excellent points. I think that if you train an animal to be violent, it will be violent and likely most dogs are not pre-disposed to being violent.
ReplyDeleteIts the nature vs nurture argument
Nature - pitbulls are violent because their genetics determine that regardless of anything else
Nurture - pitbulls are trained to be violent.
I wonder if pitbulls are genetically predisposed to being violent (i.e. their natural tendency is more like an animal in the wild - fight for survival), but that is not shown unless it is raised in an environment of violence.
What does everyone else think?
Perhaps they should ban or jail people who train their dogs to be violent!
i think they can get viscious if you dout treat them right couse ever animal can get violent and pitbulls should not get centered out

ReplyDeleteI agree with you Avery if you raise the animal properly it will turn out to be a loyal animal to you
Avery I agree with you about how a dog is only vicious if it is trained to be. I my self have a Rottweiler/Shepard cross and it will bark but unless your a bee or fly you wont be harmed because she was trained to be nice but she looks and sounds terrifying to others.Also you need to edit your post to fix the many errors in it.
ReplyDeleteBehaviour really does have to do with how an animal is raised. If the owner spends time with their animal and trains it properly everyday then the animal should be tame and non-agressive. Also, people can simply put a muzzle on the dog if they aren't trained yet, no need to ban.
