Who gets to choose which breeds of dogs we don't need? Why the Governments of course and perhaps the two world canine organisations and then there are the national canine organisations in each country.
NZ and Australian Governments have banned several breeds of dogs, the national canine organisations of both countries do not recognise certain breeds of dogs as legitimate ( eg American Pit Bull Terriers).
Just today in the local metro newspaper I read that a little Jack Riussel was killed by two Pit Bulls in coming to the defence of five children aged under 11. The Pit Bulls, on the loose, had come from behind to attack one of the group - a five year old - and the little JR - not connected with any of the kids - rushed out and distracted the Pit Bulls. The JR who was owned by a lonely elderly man for the last seven years, is regarded as a hero and is sure to be given a posthumous civil award.
Now in the past week in NZ we have Pit Bulls at three different locations- all owned by probably despictable people - kill a woman, send an 8 year old boy to hospital with several bad bites having also bit a fiteen year old girl, and kill a JR while attacking five kids. All were unprovoked attacks.
