Re: New IG puppy
I thought they were included in the dangerous dogs law. It must be the Staffordshire Terrier and not the Staffordshire Bull Terrier. I haven't read a great deal about it, I just know about the ban on American Pit Bull Terriers and others closely related. I agree with your sentiments completly regarding the bad dog vs bad owner. Of course I'm biased because I own two APBT's but I have also done a considerable amount of research about the subject. There is quite a bit of misrepresentation and disinformation in the media regarding the subject.
I think it's great that you adopted a dog with a disability. Many people aren't willing to animals that have some sort of disability a chance. In my neighborhood there is a APBT that lost the use of both of it's hind legs. The owners built a harness and wheels to take the place of his back legs. It's amazing how well he cruises around on those two wheels. I bet your dog does pretty well too. Any pictures?
