Forget Rotties and Dobies. Ther're small time compared to some of the breeds currently being "imported" by OUR local drug dealers. Ever heard of a Fila? Two hundred PLUS pounds of dog specifically bred to kill PEOPLE. Original breeding stock HAD to be blooded before breeding. Nice info from their PC, no?? How about Tosa Inus nad Pressa Canarios. Teh problem with banning a breed is that teh BAD GUYS will only move on to something bigger and badder! Not JUST my opinion --- we are already picking them up! AND on another note..... everyone was soooo against the federal law requiring all the microchip companies to go to the European, 134 mh, chip and scanner. Another problem just came up while I was posting. Our K-9 unit just called to tell me that they had imported a couple of dogs and want to verify the microchip numbers. How many of you want to bet my scanner WON'T read the chips on working police dogs???????? Scary thought, NO!
