The service dog of a retired cop, who is also a disabled vet, had to give up his pit-mix service dog because his city threatened to take the dog and kill it (no euphemisms about "putting to sleep;" this wouldn't have been the kind death we share with animals who are suffering).
A few points:
1.) These are the people who get to go first in the presidential election? Really? I guess it won't be a big deal that Mitt Romney tied his dog to the roof of the car for a road trip, then...but I sure wish it would be.
2.) I'm not at all a fan of pits, and even I don't approve of breed-specific legislation. When the girl whose greyhound was nearly killed by a pit disapproves of your breed bigotry, you're just a horrible town.
3.) A service dog is not any breed; a service dog is just a Good Dog.
