Tennessee Legislation

Even though the State of TN has decided against a state wide ban, it doesn't stop individual counties or cities from banning Pit Bulls. South Pittburgh, TN has already done it. They passed the law because a "wild pack of Pit Bull mix dogs" attacked a teenage boy. A local politician, Tom Landers, played a big part in passing the ban.

I don't know about anyone else, but I've never seen Pits run in "packs". Also, I saw the news report that kept emphasizing the phrase "wild pack of Pit Bull mix dogs" but the dogs they were showing certainly didn't look anything like a Pit Bullto me.

Does anyone know of any other communities in TN, or any other state for that matter, that have passed or are considering a ban? I want to contact anyone I can that supports BSL and voice my opinion. I believe every responsible Pit Bull owner should do the same. If we don't, we could all eventually be at risk of losing our animals!!!

 

Dade County in Miami has a Pit Bull Ban. I dont know of any others in Florida.

Yeah, there have been many account where there is a vicious "pit bull" attack, and then they show some dog that doesn't even kind of look like the APBT.
