Hi Keri,
Thank you for this invitation,it made me happy.Its always important to know what to expect for different types of dog,I didn't like Pit Bulls before,but you explained it very nicely,and I and my family know what to expect about Pit Bulls.and what to expect from our neighbors dog. You helped me make peace or keep peace,or prevented one incident between me and my neighbor. Thank you again.
I'm proud to be a part of this group. I own a pit mix & it hurts me to know that this breed is so misunderstood. This breed, greyhounds, & mutts have a special place in my heart because they seem to have the saddest stories. I signed all the petitions & checked out the sites--wonderful!!! Thank you very much!!!

for all these links to the petitions, I somehow had missed quite a few of them!!
I also wanted to add that Bad Rap (http://www.badrap.org/rescue/index.cfm) is an amazing site and group, with wonderful information on Pitbulls and the 'bad rap' they receive. Also, they have adorable dog and human clothing with slogans like 'I'm a lover"... too cute.
The American Dog Owners Association (http://www.adoa.org/) is another great website/group you can join, which sends you tons of pamphlets and information, much of it based on the breed specific legislation and how we can fight it.
And lastly, if you have time, you should visit the Pet-Abuse website (http://www.pet-abuse.com/), while they don't have petitions to sign, they list all the current pet abuse cases going on in each state, and the addresses of judges/prosecturs so that we can send them letters asking for severe punishment.

I signed the petitions. I must admit I did it for "Doc" - my roommate's pit bull and my best friend. This breed is TOOOO misunderstood. I love Doc to bits and think of him as the best dog in the world. It breaks my heart when I see animals being abused.

PETITION INFORMATION
Petition Title: Justice For Mooie - The Acid Burned Puppy Select petition category: Animal Welfare
Sponsor: Lilith Graves
Organization: Puppy Passions Rescue and Transport Start Date: 03/20/06 Stop Date: Ongoing Country (if petition applies to a single country): USA Signature Goal (number): 500 URL for more information: http://www.pasadosafehaven.org/CRUELTY%20NEWS/Puppy_Acid.htm (WARNING - GRAPHIC PICS)
Summary of Petition:
According to the veterinarian who euthanized Mooie, she was burned over nearly 98% of her body possibly using muriatic acid, an acid used to clean concrete, and used for meth-amphetamine production. The puppy was even forced to drink the acid, burning the inside of her mouth.
Text of Petition:
We are writing on behalf of Mooie, the four-month-old Federal Way, WA puppy that was so badly burned by acid that she had to be humanly euthanized by the Veterinarians of Valley Animal Hospital in Auburn, WA.
Although intentional animal cruelty is a Felony in Washington State, according to Pasado Safe Haven's sources (a Monroe, Washington-based animal welfare agency), King County Animal Control and the Federal Way Police Department cremated the body of the tortured puppy before a necropsy (animal autopsy) or toxicology tests could be conducted. Why did the law enforcement responsible for investigating such a horrible crime threw away the evidence? Surely you know full-well that information gleaned from necropsy and toxicology reports are the corner-stone of any prosecutor’s case against a perpetrator? When a Vet Clinic regrets ever having turned over an animal's body to the "proper authorities", is it time to question the authorities' ability to do its job?
In the past three years there have been three animal cruelty laws passed in Washington State. What good are the laws if the investigators, paid to do their job, choose not to use them?
Why shouldn't we expect a professional and appropriate protocol for handling physical evidence in animal cruelty cases? Would authorities discard such evidence in a human-related case?
Does King County Animal Control and the Federal Way Police Department want the person capable of such a hideous act of cruelty freely roaming the streets of our cities and towns among our pets and children?
The authorities of our court systems have taken an oath of "protecting all God's creatures" and we have the greatest confidence that the law will be set straight for this sweet little dog who suffered so much.
Thank you Tanya for inviting me to this group! I am very angry for the way this world has come down on the Pit Bull breed. I want to help in any way I can. I am working on signing alot of these petitions!! That will keep me busy

I'm part of this program in a 25 mile radius that had over 100 feral cats.About 4 years ago we did this with 162 feral cats and it
was a miracle before our eyes in less than a year.We have the typical 4/5 left in our area that we all take care of & not one of us has seen one litter
in at least 3 years.We look and I'm sure there have been a few hiding but this "works" and is very easy to do. We actually ended up finding homes for many of the "feral" cats.
All it took was some time & love but we still need to Trap/Neuter/Release.(PLEASE SIGN...!!)
Hope all is well with you and your babies. My two are doing well. Anyways I have made up a Petition on a man that was arrested for animal abuse here in my area. If you could please sign, I would like the prosecutor on this case to have this. Again thank you for your wonderful support.
Help Bring Justice for Mercy April 27, 2006 7:51 PM
Even tho Mercy's cold-hearted
killer has been found; it's more important now than ever to please sign
and crosspost this petition-so the Prosecuter and all those involved
with this case on the "legal end" will know that the public insists on
the penalty fitting the crime when it comes to such horrendous acts of
animal torture, abuse and neglect.
Mercy suffered horribly at
the hands of a man. A man who deserves to be punished to the fullest
extent of the law...our laws against abuse such as this needs to be
tougher, and this case could very well be one that sets a precedent to
this end; if enough people speak up.
Let's get some justice for Mercy-she was innocent, and paid the ultimate price for that innocence because she was "just a dog"-Let's not let her painful torture and death be in vain.
Please
sign-in memory of Mercy..in memory of all those abused and killed
before her (and all those who will be after her) and then send this far
and wide so that maybe, just maybe; when the abusers realize they'll no
longer get a small "slap on the wrist"-they might think twice.
Thank you-for Mercy, and for the mom who was ready and waiting to adopt her. Kathy >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Mercy
was just a sweet, innocent 10 month old puppy whose life was so
viciously taken from us. Why? Because some sadistic low life who is
sick and twisted needed to feel he had the power to torture and kill
and get away with it. Well, we must make sure he DOESN'T! We implore you to prosecute to fullest extent of the law for Mercy's death and justice be served.

not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours
they move finished and complete, gifted with extensions of the senses
we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear.
They are not brethren, they are not underlings; they are other nations,
caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of
the splendour and travail of the earth."

We, the undersigned, would like to see Breed Specific Legislation not become part of Illinois Law. Instead we urge the Illinois Senate to pass HR1026 and HJR101. HR1026 encourages individual municipalities not to enact breed specific legislation, but to target irresponsible dog owners with tougher laws that are enforced and to encourage programs that educate residents. HJR101 establishes a task force comprised of 17 members, including representatives from the veterinary community, animal control, a not-for-profit humane society, the American Kennel Club and an animal behaviorist. The purpose of this task force being to evaluate and make recommendations on how to best protect the public from attacks. It is our fervent wish that these bills are passed and enforced. Thank you for taking this into consideration.
This is a petition to get FOX News to do a segment on the truth about pitbulls. How they are not naturally aggressive and how with the proper respectful owners they make great pets for children and families. It's time we as respectful owners and breeders show the public the truth about these dogs instead of hiding behind the lies and being too scared to say anything in case Pits get banned in our area. Hiding isn't saving these dogs. Waiting untill there is a policy in place to ban the dogs is too late. We need to pull together now to help this breed of dog we all love so much.
Please Sign All Of These Very Urgent Petitions & Cross Post. Even if you think you've already signed please double check, some petitions have similar names. We need as many signatures as possible to make the biggest impact.
Stopping the BSL in DeSoto November 15, 2006 12:42 PM
The city of DeSoto,
Texas (a subdivision of Dallas) is attempting to ban all American Pit
Bull terriers on December 7th, 2006. This petition is an attempt to
stop this act, before it happens. We want DeSoto to realize the breed
is not to blame for any incidents; the blame lies in the owner. Instead
of blaming and entire breed, we want DeSoto to blame the deed!
As you know, the Coral Springs City Commission passed a resolution 10 days ago to push the Florida State Representatives to introduce and pass a bill that would reverse the current state statute that prevents any city or county from banning a specific breed of dog.
Stop BSL in Memphis Missouri November 15, 2006 12:46 PM
This petition is to stop Breed Specific Banning in the city of Memphis, Missouri. I
feel that BSL is unconstitutional and we as voting people should have
the right to own any breed of dog if we are responsible owners.
They have been talking of limiting the number of "Dangerous dogs" a person can own in Indiana. The News has stated that they were trying to limit the number to two dogs per person and they had to be indoors! But by definition, a "dangerous dog" could be your grandmother's poodle!!
We, the undersigned, are concerned citizens of the City of Indianapolis
and neighboring cities. While recognizing the concerns of Indianapolis
residents, we are extremely alarmed regarding the pit bull (dangerous
dogs) ordinances that are being proposed, which would have a negative
impact on responsible, law-abiding dog owners. These ordinances would
have an impact on not only Indianapolis citizens, but also those who
choose to visit Indianapolis to show their dogs in legal events, to do
business in the community, or to visit family and friends. Following
are listed our specific concerns.
(1) Available data
indicates that a dog of ANY breed (regardless of size) can bite/ and or
cause fatalities. Studies published in the Journal of the American
Veterinary Medical Association conclude that there is NO reliable data
identifying biting dogs by breed. As well, the American
Temperament Test Society has available results of dogs tested by them.
As of December 2002, the following results were found:
(Number of dogs tested) [Percent of dogs passed] American Pit Bull Terrier (405) [83.2%] American Staffordshire Terrier (437) [82.6%] Golden Retriever (612) [82.5%] Labrador Retriever (597) [90.6%] Shetland Sheepdog (426) [66.2%] Collie (722) [78.8%] This can be verified with the A.T.T.S. by calling them at (314)869-6103 or on the web at www.atts.org.
(2) The term “pitbull” is not a breed nor is it recognized by reputible
breed organizations or kennel clubs. Pitbull is a variety of breed that
describes American Pit Bull Terriers and mixes, American Staffordshire
Terriers and mixes, and Staffordshire Terriers and mixes, and is often
mistakenly used to describe other similar breeds (such as bull terriers
and American bulldogs). It is very difficult or impossible to tell
these breeds apart and, as a result, it is impossible to fairly enforce
the proposed ordinaces.
(3) Cities that have tried to solve
their dangerous dog problem by restricting or banning breeds have
discovered that such laws do not work. Recently, Cincinnati, OH has
repealed its ban on specific breeds and Baltimore, MD has removed all
breed specific references from its ordinance, and PA prohibits any BSL.
(4) There is no reliable method by which to
scientifically determine the breed of a dog. It is impossible to
determine whether a mixed breed dog is 50% of any particular breed. To
require the owner of a mixed breed dog to prove that the dog is NOT 50%
of a targeted breed places an impossible burden on that citizen. The
question of constitutionality comes into play here.
(5) The
majority of the owners of targeted breeds are responsible, law-abiding
citizens. The proposed ordinances unfairly brand these people as
unreliable and irresponsible, solely because they own a targeted breed.
Again, there is a question regarding the rights of citizens in regard
to personal property. Additionally, we belive the irresponsible owners
that are the real source of breed related concern will not be affected,
as they will continue to own the dogs illegally or will create other,
more dangerous breeds.
(6) It is the consensus of
knowledgeable dog experts (as reported in the JAVMA article, "A
Community Solution to the Dog Bite Problem") that targeting the owners
and the specific dangerous dog, not breeds of dogs, is the key to
addressing the dog bite and "dangerous dog" problems.
(7)
It takes a large amount of funding for these ordinance provisions
requiring the training, testing, and property examination. Passing laws
that cannot be enforced increases citizen cynicism regarding effective
government.
(8) This proposal
is an obvious camouflage form of breed specific legislation, targeting
larger breeds of dogs. While not specifically stated, it's primary
function is to limit larger breeds, including, but not limited to,
Rottweilers, Pit Bulls, Dobermans, Shepherds, Boxers, Huskies,
Malamutes, Great Danes, Mastiffs, Cane Corsos, etc.
(9)
Inadvertently this proposal will remove responsibility of dog owners
and place it solely on the animal, thus causing irresponsible ownership
to run amok in the city of Indianapolis. This will only create more
problems and less solutions. "Laws that restrict the ownership of
certain breeds of dogs but fail to address the actions of their owners
are likely to be ineffective in reducing the number of fatal dog
attacks, according to a study by federal health officials published in
the current issue of the journal Pediatrics." (The Washington Post,
June 11, 1996)
In summary, the proposed ordinances are unfair, costly to taxpayers to
enforce, time consuming to enforcement agents, and unnecessary. We urge
you to veto this ordinance.

Save the Lives of Cats and Dogs: Support Non-Surgical Sterilization November 15, 2006 12:49 PM
Imagine being able to sterilize your dog or cat without surgery or anesthesia, but with a simple injection.
While a sterilization injection is not available yet, it will be. WHEN
is a matter of how much the public pressures pharmaceutical companies,
scientists, regulators and funders into developing the right tools.
While many U.S. pet owners are able to afford and access spay/neuter
surgery, it's often a different story for low-income pet owners and
rural residents. Surgical sterilization is also logistically difficult
and expensive for population control of un-owned animals, such as
shelter animals and feral cats. An estimated five million cats and dogs die each year in US shelters alone.
The situation is even more desperate in many other countries where
geographic, economic and cultural barriers prevent widespread use of
sterilization to control dog and cat populations. Suffering is often
greatest in these communities.
Much of this tragedy could be prevented by the development of new
non-surgical tools which will facilitate population control as well as
providing health and behavioral benefits to the animals receiving them.
These tools will enable sterilization of those animals traditional
sterilization has not reached.
Join the Alliance for Contraception in Cats and Dogs (ACC&D),
the ASPCA and Petfinder.com in endorsing this petition by declaring
your support now! Your signatures and comments will be delivered to key
targets to stimulate funding, research and development, approval and
distribution of these life-saving tools.
PETA, End Your Support of BSL (Breed Specific Legislation). November 15, 2006 12:50 PM

they publically agree to end their support of BSL, which ROBS innocent
pets of their RIGHTS!
Keep BSL out of Illinois November 15, 2006 12:52 PM
Introduced by Rep. Michael Tryon on December 1st, 2005, HB4213 automatically
deems American Pit Bull Terriers, American Staffordshire Terriers, "pit
bulls," Pit Bull Terriers, Rottweilers and Staffordshire Terriers
vicious and requires owners of these and other dangerous dogs to
maintain liability insurance . As AKC reported last month, the bill
further restricts the regulations for keeping these dogs, including
requiring them to be muzzled and leashed whenever outside their owners'
residence, even in a fenced back-yard. Fines for violations will
increase to a minimum of $1001. Please sign and help keep bsl out
of Illinois! Let them know that PitBulls and the named dogs above are
not VICIOUS DOGS! Let them know that we SHOULDNT have to muzzle our
family pets just to walk to the sidewalk! Let them know that RACIAL
PROFILING IS WRONG!
No Breed Specific Legislation in Illinois November 15, 2006 12:57 PM
We, the undersigned, would like to see Breed Specific Legislation
not become part of Illinois Law. Instead we urge the Illinois Senate
to pass HR1026 and HJR101
Breed Specific Legislation heightens human risk of rabies exposure! November 15, 2006 1:01 PM
Please ask the Animal Health Inspection
Service, an agency of the Department of Homeland Security, to
acknowledge and report that citizens are at a heightened risk for
exposure to rabies in areas where Breed Specific Legislation exists,
and to urge local governments to reverse all existing bans on pit
bulls. As long as local governments have the authority to implement
breed bans and outlaw companion animals, the potential for large-scale
disease outbreaks such as rabies remains an unrealized threat to public
safety. Local governments cannot be allowed to impose such un-American
laws such as breed specific banning of companion animals.
I am not too sure about the truth behind this petition, but the way I see it is, if it ends BSL, then I am signing it! And I hope you do too!

No to Breed Specific Legislation in N.S.W November 15, 2006 1:02 PM
Dear Mr Iemma
In October 2005, the government of New
South Wales pushed through Breed Specific Legislation laws targetting
innocent dog owners and their beloved pets, these laws were finalised
in April 2006 and the Breed Specific Discrimination has begun. These
laws have taken the joy out of having a beloved companion animal, these
laws deprive a dog of human interaction and socialistion, and the
amount of stress and unhappiness caused to innocent families who have
done nothing wrong is phenomenal.
Breed Specific Legislation
DOES NOT WORK. These laws do nothing to stop irresponsible dog
ownership and they do not stop or decrease the number of dog attacks in
New South Wales or in any place.
We the undersigned citizens,
ask that Breed Specific Legislation in New South Wales be overturned,
and ask for new laws to be placed and educational programs be started
to address the increasing problems of dog attacks. We ask that the New
South Wales government recognise the problem is not with any specific
breed of dog, as ALL breeds are capable of attacking and causing
damage, and implement laws that do not harm innocent people and
families and their beloved pets.
.HELLO THANKS FOR THE INVITE, GLADE TO BE HERE, I LOVE ALL DOGS, WE ALL HAVE OUR FAV,BUT THEY ALL NEED LOVE. SO I'M SENDING A . TO ALL OUR WONDERFUL DOGS.
