Lift the ban on Pit Bulls' in Rolla, Kansas

    LIFT THE BAN ON PIT BULLS IN ROLLA, KANSAS -

    According to paragraph 2, clause 111, section 6 - ANY Pit Bull dog, meaning Staffordshire Bull Terrier, American Stafforshire Terrier, American Pit Bull Terrier, or any other breed commonly known as a Pit Bull, Pit Bull Dog, or Pit Bull Terrier falls under the "vicious animal" clause (paragraph 2, clause 111.)

    Just because a dog is a breed of the listed above "Pit Bull" does not mean that it is vicious! Each and every species of dog needs to be judged per animal per incident because all breeds are raised differently. That is why we are asking that such Pit Bulls listed above be removed from the "vicious animal" clause and be allowed in the city limits of Rolla, Kansas USA.

    HERE ARE SOME INTERESTING FACTS & FICTIONS OF PIT BULLS:

    Pit Bulls' have locking jaws - FICTION. Pit Bulls' can't lock their jaws. Their jaws are constructed just like any other dog. In fact if you take the x-ray of a Chihuahua and compare it to that of a Pit Bull, you will see that they are both the same except for the size difference.

    Pit Bulls' are unpredictable and more likely to bite than other dogs - FICTION. Pit Bulls' are no more vicious than Golden Retrievers', Beagles' or other popular dogs! In a recent study of 122 dog breeds by the American Temperament Testing Society (ATTS), Pit Bulls' achieved a passing rate of 83.9%. That's as good or better than Beagles' ... 78.2%, and Golden Retrievers'... 83.2%.

    Pit Bulls' are good with children - FACT. Pit Bulls' always test high as one of the most stable breeds of dogs in the country. These statistics can be found with the American Temperament Test Society of the United States, where they always fall as one of the top five most stable dogs. Because of this, they are extremely patient and tolerant of children.

    All Pit Bulls' will "snap" and attack a person sooner or later - FICTION. Pit Bulls' are a very popular breed and rarely attack. Pit Bulls' are very powerful animals, so when something does go wrong, it usually makes the news. Almost all Pit Bull attacks have involved unaltered Pit Bulls', so it is very important to have your Pit Bull spayed or neutered as soon as possible. Additionally, serious Pit Bull attacks rarely involve spayed/neutered Pit Bulls' who have received proper training and socialization.

    IT'S THE OWNER NOT THE BREED!!!!!.
