Recently, my city banned Pit Bulls, Pit mixes, and "Canary Dogs".
This has been publicized in a number of ways.

Aw, hell!

I've been horrifying myself by watching too much daytime teevee.
Mostly, Animal Planet, which means lots of Animal Cops, Miami Animal
Police (my cousin was on it!), and Animal Precinct. The number of
Pit Bulls that get siezed on those shows and their ultimate fates
makes me weepy.

If you have any of these dogs, you have a couple of months to
register them with the city, get a huge insurance policy and
follow a number of peculiar requirements, including always having
your dog muzzled in public.

Or move. Unfortunately, that's not a course of action that most
owners are likely to be able or willing to take.

Last night I saw a young man walking the most adorable Pit Bull
puppy...

That's heartbreaking. You have to wonder if the person is blissfully
unaware of the law, or just doesn't care?
