Clear indicators

The only clear indicator here is that you are NOT professionals..except at being victims.

From the Australian Veterinary Association Sensible solutions

The failure of breed-specific legislation to prevent dog attacks is due to a number of factors.
 Firstly, breed on its own is not an effective indicator or predictor of aggression in
dogs.
 Secondly, it is not possible to precisely determine the breed of the types of dogs
targeted by breed-specific legislation by appearance or by DNA analysis.
 Thirdly, the number of animals that would need to be removed from a community to
have a meaningful impact on hospital admissions is so high that the removal of any
one breed would have negligible impact.
 Finally, breed-specific legislation ignores the human element whereby dog owners
who desire this kind of dog will simply substitute another breed of dog of similar size,
strength and perception of aggressive tendencies.

From the National Urban Animal Management Conferences Dangerous Dogs

4. It must be recognised that a dog of any breed or type can be dangerous.
5. It is only from known incidents of aggression that determination of
dangerousness can be made.

The Association of Professional Dog Trainers does not believe that breed is a determining factor Model Dog Law

The Association of Pet Dog Trainers believes that the actual behavior of an individual dog should be the sole determination of its potential danger.

The ASPCA does not believe that breed is a determining factor Position Statement on Dangerous Dog Laws

There is no credible evidence that breed determines or predicts dangerousness.

The National Animal Control Association does not believe that breed determines potential for dangerousness Guidelines

Any animal may exhibit aggressive behavior regard-less of breed. Accurately identifying a specific animal’s lineage for prosecution purposes may be extremely difficult. Additionally, breed specific legislation may create an undue burden to owners who otherwise have demonstrated proper pet management and responsibility.

The International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants does not believe it either. IAABC

The IAABC does not believe that a dog poses a danger to society solely because of its breed. Dogs can become dangerous as a result of faulty socialization, inappropriate training, poor living conditions and other factors having nothing to do with their breed.

All of these are actual professionals/experts. These are people who have worked with hundreds if not thousands of dogs. These are people who are not just “victims” of irresponsible parenting or irresponsible pet ownership (whether their own or someone elses). These are people who actually know dogs.

The difference between listening to the hatemongers and the professionals is actually very simple.

If you break you leg tripping over a ladder, are you going to ask a doctor to fix it, or the person who left the ladder behind?
