Dear Editor,
(In response to: ‘Village Council: ‘Pit bulls: We need to address this immediately,?? The Citizen, page 1, Aug. 1.)
When are you going to do a story about responsible pit bull owners?
Our dogs are fenced and are never running at large, but yet I am afraid to take them for a walk on a leash because of all the unleashed dogs in the area and, no, they are not pit bulls. How unfair is it that I finally move somewhere that allows pit bulls and irresponsible people can scare the councilmembers into banning them? Do you realize how many taxpaying, hard-working, law abiding citizens will have to move if they approve a ban? We need harsher punishments for unleashed dogs. All dogs, not just one breed.
Blame the deed, not the breed!
