Yes, I know it is a sad fact that eventually most of these "bad" breeds end up being put to sleep, but that is all the fault of the stupid PEOPLE who keep breeding them then training them to be aggressive. I think there should be some type of limitation on breeding these breeds. Like a good ethical breeder who is breeding a put (which CAN be a good dog if raised right) must have a license and must keep records of who sold to, ect. and anyone else caught breeding be somehow punished. I mean maybe this isn't the right thing, but you know what I mean, there should be some way to limit these dogs ever being reproduced for the purpose of being trained to be aggressive in the first place, and then there would not be so many to be put to sleep. Does that make sense or am I babbling??? lol
