Chavez arrived at the location, Mr. Chavez son translated the information I needed to relay to Mr. Chavez. I explained to Mr. Chavez, and his son, that neither dogs were current on dog license and vaccinations, and that I understand the reason for having an aggressive dog at their house (home protection), but they have to be able to keep the dog secure. This is the second instance where their dog has got out and attacked their neighbor’s dog. Mr. Chavez and his son stated that they were in the process of cleaning up their yard and securing the fence. I explained that keeping the white/brown pit bull confined and secure needs to be a priority. I issued Mr. Chavez violations for failure to license his dog name Kandy and Doke and a failure to control for Kandy getting
“The use of canines in the past provided law enforcement with a valuable tool, which if used properly, can improve both the efficiency and effectiveness of policing, all the while serving as an important public relations tool” (O’Heare). Some may argue that the uses of canines are classified as “Weapons”, but it is only an
Families that use off-leash dog parks are able to thoroughly help and develop their dogs for a better life. Off-leash dog parks allow both pets and owners to learn and grow through exercising and socializing without constant worry of infringing someone else rights. It benefits dogs as they are given adequate space to run and use as an outlet meanwhile, recognizing certain behaviors of more respectable and mature pets through socializing. Properly exercising dogs allow them to relieve tension and unbend; this potentially changes them from being noisy and irritable into more quite and friendlier animals. There have been numerous accounts within my neighborhood where the local residents have filed noise complaints on local dog owners. In the recent study, “On the Fence: Dog Parks in the (Un)Leashing of Community and Social Capital,” authors Taryn Graham and Troy Glover of the

This puts the dogs at risk of various diseases as well as keeps them from socializing with other dogs. Without proper socialization, a dog may be provoked and bite other dogs or even people. When these unsocialized dogs do without time outdoors, they also don’t get adequate exercise and it puts them at a higher risk of obesity and various diseases and may cause them to become more dangerous due to sickness and injury. This ban therefor, pushes unnecessary hardships on responsible dog owners and their

Imagine someone has just moved to a different town and the townspeople decide that the person that just came to town is a threat, so the town creates rules that say the new person is not allowed to do certain things or go to certain places. This is how I suspect the following dog breeds feel nowadays: Pit Bull, German Shepherd, Rottweiler, Jack Russell Terrier, Spaniel, Collie, Saint Bernard, and Labrador Retriever. I feel strongly for our furry friends and when I found out about this legislation I wanted it shut down completely. Dog Breed Specific Legislation is a problem that not many people know that and I wanted to make it known to hopefully help stop
Recently, the amendment of animal control laws on pit bull ban in Montreal has risen many controversial opinions related to matter as a “public safety” after the death of a 55-year-old woman by the brutal attack of dog which is thought as a pit bull. Pit pulls are regarded as American Staffordshire terriers, Staffordshire bull terriers, American pit bull terriers and any mix breed dogs that have a part of those breeds or a dog with similar physical characteristics. The legislation prohibits pit bull, restrains the existing pit bull and makes stricter penalties for dogs which pose the danger to the public (“Montreal passes controversial”, 2016). The council’s decision about this issue is questionable whether to ensure the public safety, the city of Montreal should not adopt this controversial legislation which is unfair, ineffective and unenforceable.

Ladies and Gentlemen of the Denver City Council, today I would like to talk to you about the city of Denver enforcing a dangerous dog law instead of breed specific legislation, because the enforcement of breed specific legislation is not the solution to dangerous dogs in the community. I plan on showing how Denver could change their law to make a difference to the quality of dogs living in this great city.
