Big Joe's (Thorne's dog) a kickass dog. This is a bullshit proposal and I don't see it getting any further than being introduced. Any sensible politician would shoot this down in a heartbeat. Trjackson, dead on with the dog's only as good as its owner. My dog's a German Shepard, but looks like a black lab (coat) and acts like a Shepard (slight mix). Great dog, and they were service dogs like pits, but I haven't seen anyone bitching about them, at all. They can be aggressive as well...any dog can. This proposal gets me worked up, with my experience with the dogs, going into people's houses, I don't like this idea. Animal rights activists will be all over this...euthanizing dogs because of their breed?! Fuck that.
