discuss in forums This is a petition to get FOX News to do a segment on the truth about pitbulls. How they are not naturally aggressive and how with the proper respectful owners that make greta pets for children and families. It's time we as respectful owners and breeders show the public the truth about these dogs instead of hiding behind the lies and being too scared to say anything in case Pits get banned in our area. Hiding isnt saving these dogs. Waiting untill there is a policy in place to ban the dogs is too late. We need to pull together now to help this breed of dog we all love so much.

12457 Owen Pardy I support this petition. It's not the dog's fault, it's how the owner has raised it.
12456 nick I support this petition.
12455 George I support this petition.
12454 Jennifer G I support this petition.
12453 Torres I've had plenty of dogs in my time. From very small miniatures to the Staffordshire Pull Terrier that I have now. The ONLY problems that I have with him is that he's deathly afraid of taking a bath for some reason and he loves to sleep on my bed! I've had my baby cousins come over and tug on his tail, ears, poke at him when he's sleeping (after trying so hard to stop this) and not once has he done anything to them. He simply gets up and moves to a different part of the house. Sure, it's easy to use the "eventually all pit bulls snap..." but this is true for any dog, so it's not an excuse. Pit bulls are only as bad as you raise them. If you load a gun and pull the trigger, it's going to shoot! If you put the lock on it and be responsible, no one gets hurt.
12452 Leslie Johns Nation wide, save pitbulls. This is Provo, Utah stating right now that they are trying to take our rights away. They are ignorant, scared people because they are IGNORANT! They do not understand that a dog is a dog. A dog is only as good as it's owner. A dalmation is ten times more likely to bite than a pitbull. I'm sick of of people ruining the name of PITBULL because they aren't responsible enough to raise a member of the family. Any breed of dog that sleeps at the foot of your bed and protects your family is part of the family.
12451 Steve Armes I support this petition.
12450 Scott Thompson I recently adopted a pit bull/rat terrier mix and couldn't be happier with him! He is the sweetest, best mannered and most obedient dog I could have hoped for. I think it is absurd to ban an entire breed of dog based on the ignorance of humans who exploit their dog's loyalty. GREAT OWNERS = GREAT DOGS!!
12449 Shawna Payton Yay! people who feel the same way about pitbulls! I had one as a child and she was the sweetest dog ever. I fell that pitbulls are unfairly protrayed.
12448 Dayna S. I LOVE PITBULLS!!!! i have one of my own and my friend has like two i love them like my own. my cousin has one and i love him hes my nephew!
12447 Bryanna Welsh pit bulls are very nice dogs except when people train the otherwise
12446 Lisa K. Not the dog is evil but the owner. They should lock away those people who make pitbulls those machines instead of forbidding and killing pitbulls
12445 megan I LOVE PIT BULLS! best dog anyone could have.
12444 RUDY QUINTERO
12443 Megan I believe that blaming the dog for a humans fault is unacceptable. I live in ohio where there have been plenty of rumors about banning pitbulls and its horrible. I dog sit and i watch a pit bulls who is so sweet. FOX has definitly got their story wrong.
12442 Zach These bans are disgraceful and done only out of fear, which in itself is a pathetic reason. Pitbulls are just innocent animals that are misunderstood due to unreasonably negative stereotypes and media coverage. If people would open their minds, they'd realize that the only ones that should be punished are the negligent owners that raise the few pitbulls that cause these negative stereotypes.
12441 K.L. Cole
12440 Joseph Zuniga If only everyone had the chance to own a wonderful dog like this... wouldn't that be nice?
12439 Caitlin Punish the deed, not the breed
12438 Kier I sign with such force I rip a hole in the webpage.
12437 Malika D. Scheu
12436 Kylee M. Pitt Bulls are very nice, I know. My cousin has 2 of them.
12435 Jamee Landry Pitbulls are not inherently mean. Like many other breeds, they require the proper establishment of leadership.People who are not educated in the skills required to own a pitbull should not have a pitbull. To unfairly punish a breed of dog base solely based on the fact that people are not educated is wrong. People are at fault here, not the breed of dog, we are supposed to tbe the more educated of the species. Let's own our actions here and stop blaming others.
12434 Dalawna Buntain i love my pitbulls :d i have 7, theyre such amazing dogs !
12433 christopher newton I've got a pit and also have kids he's great with them gentle as he can be but he'll aiso protect me and my family with his life it's all in how their raised
12432 Maygen
12431 tiffany I have a pit bull terrior and she is the sweetest thing on earth they are not born mean they are made mean by idiots who try to fight them, starve them, and mistreat them in variouse other things.
12430 Pywakitt They are dangerous dogs and should be treated as such! They are wild and do not need to be around humans! Especially children as they can be as deadly as a pack of wolves.
12429 Erika F Please make a positive awareness for these innocent animals that once put their lives on the line for our American counrty.
12428 James Devine A dog is only as bad as their owner. Just because some ****s choose to mistreat their pitbulls, doesnt mean that all pitbulls are aggresive
12427 Cinthya Cabral I love pitbulls they are good dogs it's just that some people want 2 make money by training them as fighting dogs.People need 2 stop being ignorant thinking their all the same.
12426 Alba There are only bad news about Pitbulls, but they are heroic dogs too, i'm a journalist too, so i know we should also show the good part of this breed.

12423 Lisa Corley I have two blue pits and they are literally part of the family along with myself,my husband and two boys. We love those dogs more than anything. I have never owned a dog breed with such loyalty, intelligence and affection. They crave love and affection. I use to believe all of the bad stuff about pit bulls until I owned them and saw first hand how they really are.

12417 Gordonsa Pitbulls only have a bad reputation from the media, who does stories on them but ignores other dogs.

12411 Brina Pit Bulls are GOOD dogs, I've had 2 pits this past year and they are the most loving territorial and protective animals you can find, my 2 little girls loved them very dearly, but Some duck hunter shot both of them and they weren't even on his land! Pit Bulls are one of the best dog breeds!
12410 Kimberly Ressel I love Pitbulls and so do my children!
