How To Stop Breed Bans - New eBook

I'll tell you the most dangerous breeds - write these down!

#1 All Time Dangerous Breed:

The #1 most dangerous breed are media outlets that deliberately breed fear, spreading myths and lies about dog breeds and canine behavior through irresponsible reporting and reinforcement of undeserved and negative breed stereotypes

What You Can Do About It:

1. Call up the paper, the TV station or email the website and complain about the biased dog story
2. Ask for the Editor, Sales Manager and/or Program Director
3. Tell them you won't read, watch or visit
4. Tell then you won't patronize their advertisers until they stop their biased coverage
5. Tell them they have the opportunity to spread knowledge, not fear
6. Tell them My Dog Votes!

#2 All Time Dangerous Breed:

The #2 most dangerous breeds are the local and state politicians that feed on the fear created by the irresponsible media, and the public's ignorance. They are greedy for the headlines, campaign dough and do the bidding of the private sector instead of truly advocating for the public health, safety and welfare. They pass breed bans , weight or size restrictions, public space bans, and mandatory microchip laws, and other anti-dog legislation limiting the rights of responsible tax-paying citizens rather than deal with their criminal and social problems.

What You Can Do About It:

1. Call or write the offending local of state elected official and complain about the breed ban or other anti-dog legislation
2. Tell them you want the ban overturned in favor of breed-neutral legislation
3. Tell them you want any other anti-dog legislation stopped or overturned
4. Tell them you will vote them out in the next election
5. Tell them you will vote out any politician that supported the ban
6. Tell them you will rally every dog owner in town against them
7. Tell them they have the opportunity to educate instead of legislate
8. Tell them My Dog Votes!

#3 All Time Dangerous Breed:

The #3 most dangerous breeds are the apathetic dog owners who say nothing, or do nothing because they think they cannot affect change, or fight the sytem, or it doesn't affect them directly. Or maybe they just don't care - or won't care - that is - until they come for their dog.

What You Can Do About It:

1. Tell all of your friends, neighbors, relatives and associates, regardless of whether or not they own a dog about the breed ban or other anti-dog legislation
2. Tell them they must support their fellow dog owners, friends, and neighbors
3. Tell them if we don't stand together now, we all fall
4. Tell them they have the opportunity to unite the community, not divide the community
5. Tell them to do it for their dog
6. Tell them My Dog Votes!

Now get off your butts and go do it.
