Breed Specific Legislation or BSL is exactly what it sounds like...regulation of your right to own or, in many cases, not own, a dog based solely on the breed or type of dog - not your responsibility as an owner. BSL can also refer to regulations and/or requirements placed only on a specific breed of dog and their owners. No matter how you define it, BSL targets all dogs of a breed -- the innocent as well as the guilty, and it removes the responsibility from the dogs owner and towards the dog itself. Simple common sense tells you that laws are created to punish or deter the actions of humans - not those of animals. Laws are being proposed every day that are intended to take away our rights to own particular dogs for no reason other than their breed - the way they look, the hype that surrounds them. BSL is the politicians inadequate and uneducated band-aid solution to address the gushing wound of irresponsible ownership and lack of personal accountability. defendingdog/index.html
