Cowhead, an irresponsible jockey in the Tampa bay, Fl   promoting B.S.L. and animal abuse on public radio broadcast.

Tampa Bay Florida 102.5's The Bone's dj Cowhead promoting animal abuse and B.S.L. has to be

Target:
Stopping and correcting the miss-information given to the public.
Sponsored by: 
 On September 8th, 2008, Cowhead caused an outrage when promoting B.S.L.. Cowhead was promoting animal cruelty to his public. This will not be tolerated! while it was said by one person that the teeth should be removed, they claim it was a joke. 

They  also stated Pit bulls are an abomination from hell, and they should never exist in the first place. On that monday, Cowhead also stated you will never hear of a pit saving a child, they terrorize instead. He is miss informing the public and we are afraid this is going to contribute to a rise in animal abuse, especially for pits. We are all aware only an average of 20% of the pits make it out of the shelters alive, a large percentage of dog cruelty cases are pits also. We are always dilligent watching the paper and creg's list for people giving them away in fear they will fall into the hands of a breeder, or worse , like fighting, or for dog meat for that matter. (It happens daily in the U.S.)

We demand:

1) a copy of transcripts from September 8th, 2008 and September 9th, 2008.

2) For them to list the known 75 breeds listed under the B.S.L. Law.

3) A public appologie on suggesting animal cruely, and actualy acknowledging it, not try to make himself look good at the moment and turn the issue into a big "joke". We don't live in the moment, we see our crisis of euthenizing up to 18 million pets yearly in the U.S. and want the public to be more aware. Laughing about the breed, talking like it is not wanted, only enforces evil people to target their cruel acts towards the pit bulls.


Any Hatred Toward People or Animals Is a Fine Line.

Call the sponsors of the advertisements that the station plays and let them know that you will not use their services as long as they advertise on that show!!
Please write and call station for the sake of the Pit Bull owners in that area and everywhere!! These narrow minded bigots need to be stopped. We don't need any more shock jocks, we need DJ's who will make us forget our cares for a while not make us sad and emotional. Down with 102.5. If you live in that area stop listening to them. And TELL THEM that you will not listen.

Here are some other people to call about the shock jocks on 102.

I for one am calling and writing the Tampa SPCA (727) 586-3591 http://www. spcatampabay. org/
and Humane Society 813) 876-7138 http://www. humanesocietytampa. org/contact/ to report these shock jocks of 102.5 Tampa FL(Cox Communications) The things they say against Pit Bulls arer mean and just not true. They could very well incite people to do mean things to Pitties by the things they are saying on air. They should not be allowed to be on air. Complaints to the FCC(Federal Communication Commission) would be a good idea too.
Go to http://esupport. fcc. gov/complaints. htm phone number is 1-888-225-5322. Maybe if enough of us fight against this we can make a difference to some beautiful pitties.

Cowhead you are more like a COWward or a jackass for that matter! You sound just like old Pres Bush....TRYING to SOUND smart without BEING smart. If you were smart and actually somewhat knowledgeable maybe you would have researched your information BEFORE opening your stink-filled mouth! For a DJ you are NOTHING but another statistic: STUPID PEOPLE! Maybe you should sound SMART and educate yourself.... why not go volunteer at the local shelter and see what information YOU observe!!! THINK BEFORE YOU SPEAK- something a DJ sound already have known! You are a disgrace to the radio population & DJ's around!

Animals deserve a chance to make people happy, but when people preach for animal abuse instead of against it they have no buisness owning any animals. Pit bulls are only dangerous when trained to be dangerous other than that they are really very freindly. That's like saying all gaurd dogs are mean. Every animal deserves a chance and since this company doesn't think so they should have to donate money to shelters so that they can retract some of the damage they may have caused.

The little Rascal's dog was a pitbull. Should we get rid of all men because the majority of violence is perpetrated by males?

Pits are beautiful and intelligent dogs,these dogs like all others, learn what their owners teach them, and some owners should be locked up for life.

It just goes to show the ignorance in today's culture. It does not surprise me that someone with no class and lack of proper education would say things as that. Even worse, to have people just listen and perhaps laugh at it. It's very little of him and flat out pathetic. I do hope Karma does catch up with this sad little child.

Pit Bulls are sweet, loyal, incredible animals. They deserve love, happiness and kindness. They are so misunderstood and people like Cowhead do not belong in a position where they can freely spew their garbage and encourage negative behavior. I have 2 pits who are darling and I would not trade them for anything in the world!

Whether things are said as a "joke" or not, cruelty is never something that should be taken lightly! Would you say those things about a child? It's the same thing when you say them about a defenseless animal. Blaming a dog for the way he's been raised/trained by his owner is the same as blaming a gun for the person who shot it!

Humans should not fear pit bulls, pit bulls should fear the ignorance and hate of certain humans. It's not the breed, it's the owner. Thank You,

I have had a pitbull for 15 years and I now have a 7 month old pit, and anyone that hasn't experienced a truly "good" pit has no right to eliminate an entire breed. Just because of your own ignorance and fear of the unknown you want to eradicate an entire breed? I know there are issues with any dog, but I would fear my dachshund years before my pit. Oh yeah, my dachshund will bite if she doesn't like you. Does that mean I should eradicate that breed as well? Or should I simply be a responsible owner and work within my limitations? I chose the ladder and everything has worked out fine. I will fight the BSL ever step of the way, because as far as I am concerned, and remember this is just an opinion, the BSL is made up of ignorant, fearful and malicious people. Why can't you have what you want to love in your life and leave my loved ones alone?

As being the owner of FOUR pitbulls and one CHIHUAHUA, i can say that pitbulls are some of the coolest and most loving dogs out there and the MOST misunderstood. Any dog can be a violent one. A dog is only as violent as the master trains it to be.

BSL Is HORRIBLE! I had to get rid of my 2 dogs because of it and they were nicer than a golden retriever! I have had "family dog" breeds bite people that I know, yet never have I once had anyone I know get hurt or attacked by a pitbull or pitbull mix.

What people fail to realize is once they have banned the pit bulls, the stupid people who have given them a bad name will only move on to another breed. I had the pleasure of owning 2 pits. One was raised with my daughter from the day she was born and if not for my beautiful girl, my daughter would not be here today. She was choking in her sleep when my dog came and woke me up and got me to follow to her room. This is when I found her choking on her vomit. That dog slept from day one under her crib and then in her bed until the day she died. My second pit was a beautiful white female. I got her very young and only had her a year when she was dignosed with heart worms that was to far gone even before we had gotten her. She was an angel and loved both my daughters. I own horses and cats and she never showed aggression to any of my animals. She was a protector of my family and would always let me know when someone was at the door. Once i invited the person in my home she would greet them with lots of love and kisses. At times I think about getting another one. My only fear is that I will lose her to this stupid crap with trying to rid the world of this breed. I now have a border collie and worry if they could be targeted next. They are a working dog also used to keep coyotes and other carnivores away from the herd of sheep. They are also known for herding cattle and can be very dominate but are one of the best family and loyal dogs, as is the pit bull breeds. Its not the dog its the idots that have made them look so bad. Please understand how wonderful they really are and how much they have touched peoples lives. Punish those who have hurt these beautiful animals and let these great family dogs live.
