Why Oh Why!?

3 dog attacks all of course involving Pit Bulls have been publicised in the news and media in the last month.

May i ask, what on earth is going on?

It's stories like these that make us shake our heads. Just as the Bajwa tale was wrapping up and we were starting to breathing easy again and getting through to people that these dogs are not all bad, another attack rears it's ugly head and we are back to square one.

Please people, socialize your dogs, don't leave them unattended in your backyard. If you have children ensure that they know the rules for the dog, double check even triple check that your gates are locked and that your dogs is not running loose.

We need to see embassadogs out on the street socializing with people and showing the world that our dogs are not the monsters the media says they are.

Remember our dogs are only as good as we are...

The Bajwa case doesn`t seem that it will be wrapping up for quite some time.
Apparently there`s a Doggie Ambulance chasing lawyer in BC.
This is ridiculous.
There`s only one person liable and that`s the owner.
Apparently big bucks will ease the pain.
I`d love to know exactly what happened.
Dogs shouldn`t be loose but dogs don`t just do this type of thing.
I think there`s more to this story.
Someone`s coaching this kid on what to say.
