Teddy has never done anything to indicate he is aggressive. Studies prove that BSL is BS. There are other breeds, including small breeds, that are far more likely to bite that larger pets.
Teddy doesn't even look like a Pit Bull. Clearly
the man who has deemed Teddy a Pit has never seen one. Everything about Teddy says Terrier Mix, the coloring, the build, the head and jaw all say NOT a Pit Bull.
Even if he were, this judge seems to forget that in Britain, less than 100 years ago, Pit Bulls were called Nanny Dogs because of their gentle nature and love for kids.They were used to watch over children playing in the yard. The RCA Victor dog was a Pit. The Our Gang dog was a Pit. The Buster Brown shoe dog was a Pit.
Teddy has been with this family since he was 11 weeks old. He has been treated with love and thus gives love back. Dogs are Pack animals and Teddy has his little Pack. The child is clearly attached to him and Teddy is clearly attached to her. By killing Teddy, who has no history of behavior that indicates in any way he would harm anyone, and ignoring the reports by professionals that say he is not dangerous, the person who has decided to murder a sweet, loving pet is proving only that he is biased and unwilling to consider the impact of his decision on this child. I ask you to reconsider. I understand you may think you are being cautious and protecting a child by killing her pet. You are not. You are teaching her that Adults in power can not be trusted, that they hurt people and pets, they are not willing to be fair.
Take a moment to Google a picture of a Pit Bull. Look at the build and color. Read their history. Don't judge this sweet boy by those poor animals that are abused and taught to be fighters. Take time to meet Teddy, to play with him. Please do not murder another innocent pet
The World remembers Patrick, another pet wrongfully and illegally taken ftom his family and Murdered, in spite of DNA tests that proved he was not a Pit. Patrick was a Therapy Dog for a young girl. His murder caused harm to her snd to the UK.
Please don't create another World wide scandal by murdering Teddy, an innocent pet, without justification.
Thank you,
