Default Bully owners act on proposed ban

Since the proposal of a 5 breed ban across Minnesota, we're doing what we can to make sure this ridiculous law does not go through. Here are some links to some great news articles.

An awesome piece that volunteers from A Rotta Love Plus was able to get media attention with.

One of the chairs of A Rotta Love Plus is actually having a meeting on a local animal radio station with John Lesch the legislator that is proposing this. Let's hope he gets educated and is really out to do something smart about the situation instead of pushing a political agenda. We'll find out this weekend.......

More in the works as well......

Default Pit Bull Ban in Minnesota

I don't have much time to write, but please sign my petition. I plan on preparing a speech for the capitol next year when they try to pass the law to make it illegal to own 5 breeds. Please sign my petition, it will be sent to Rep. John Lesch and all others. Thank you! If anyone is planning anything please let me know about it, or if anyone willing to help me. I think it would be smart to wait a few months and carefully plan things so we look more responsible and get a bigger and better message out there. Until then the best thing we can do is educate people about the breeds and how wonderful they are. Together we can stop BSL-it is unconstitutional to tell anyone what breed of dog they can own!
