Letters to the editor

Why is it you never read a feel good story on a Pitbull, and only when they attack is it newsworthy?

I am an advocate of the Bully Breeds, and I find it horrendous that the media only reports on attacks, never on the good these wonderful, loyal, strong, affectionate dogs have.

I've had Pitbulls and Staffordshire Bull Terriers all my life, and they have never attacked anyone.

It's not fair to condemn these dogs and only report on the bad.  Blame the deed not the breed.

It's the jerk at the end of the leash that makes the dog mean.

Pitbulls want to please, so if they are trained to love, they do it with their entire heart, if they are taught to hate, they will hate, it's that simple.

My neighbourhood has black labs that go after other people and their pets, but nothing is ever done, because it's only a lab, not a Pitbull.
