Exclamation Pit Bull Supporters Flood Website!

Ahh, the power of the internet...........

Pit Bull Supporters Flood Website by WDEF
Created Jul 9 2007 - 7:18pm
And we have another follow up from a story we did last week that has gotten quite a response.

We told you how the town of South Pittsburg has banned roaming pit bull dogs.

Over the weekend.. We were swamped with hundreds of comments online about the story... Most supporting the dogs.

Check the old poll question and Bill Mitchell's story from Friday to read all about it.

We could quote the posts, But we'll let this one picture speak for many of you. (There are many more in the comments)

The comment read "do these look like killers?"

And another common message for the leaders of South Pittsburg was "blame the deed, not the breed."

We'll have more local reaction to the issue tonight on W-D-E-F News 12 at eleven.

Check it out here:

It is fantastic!...and great to hear a positive media slant. Some of the comments showed how much education is needed still- even with supporters though. I hope the person who said "we loved our female pit bull so much we decided to get another" either really knows her stuff or has herself a couple of really laid back dogs. I'd hate for her to get blindsided with an unexpected scuffle.
