Most comments I saw were about why should a dog breed be banned just because of owners' fault. Well I don't have a comment here, since I am not even familiar with dog breeds or related laws.
This dog was killed just because of its breed? Poor dog!
You must check out Lennox's story. He was an American Bulldog and Labrador mix which means he was no Pit Bull. But since he looked like one, he was apprehended by the Belfast City Council and incarcerated for 2 years while his family fought for his custody. This dog did not do anything wrong. Their reason for taking him was that he MIGHT bite someone, but he never did. So basically, he did nothing wrong but he was taken.
In the end, Lennox was euthanized without seeing his family. What's more awful is that the family did their best to make this dog a good canine citizen. He did obedience training. He was neutered and friendly.
