#6762016-03-15 01:22This dog Teddy is being singled out and discriminated against because the authorities have not educated themselves regarding this dog's breed, therefore have labeled Teddy a Pit Bull which is a disgrace. This family is being punished and torn apart because of the authorities ignorance and the dog should be returned to the family NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

#6782016-03-15 01:27Because I had to put down a Mixed breed dog that I had adopted at 4 weeks old. I moved and she was unsettled with the noise and people yelling and carrying on that she was not use to and she attached some smaller dogs. It was a horrible time in my life and at the hearing no one would listen to my side of the story. They just judged that the dog was bad and I had to put her down or get rid of her. None of my friends or family would help me so I had no alternative. It broke my heart and I will never forget the look on her face when I left her at the pound. Never! |

#6802016-03-15 01:30Pit bulls are one of the best family dogs on the planet. This is an outrageous situation created for this dog and I am asking others in the US who know this is a great breed to sign also |

#6822016-03-15 01:35A dog is a man's best friend. A dog is family. How can one be asked to kill a family member?! |

#6832016-03-15 01:36I own a pit bull and he is the kindest and most gentle dog. Teddy does not look like a pure pit, but a mix of different dos. |

#6842016-03-15 01:37because he is a perfectly lovely dog. why don't we put earl down. i hate ignorance. |

#6852016-03-15 01:37Killing a dog because of a asumption based on Breed is racist. If one asian, black, or white male does wrong why don't you lock us all up? It's stupid and I stand behind saving this dog. |

#6862016-03-15 01:38BSL IS A BAD LAW. It kills wonderful innocent dogs, shatters family's hearts, children are separated from a beloved pet. What is good about that? No bad dogs, just bad owners. |

#6872016-03-15 01:39I think any living been shall have the right to live as long it doesn't cause any ham to anyone. Put a dog to death without any cause is cruelty. |

#6882016-03-15 01:40To fight against the violent arrogant pig that is claiming his right to decide what is best for children in regards to this dogs life based on his opinion that he thinks it is unsafe. This is a dangerous smug subversive evil man who loves hatred and death. he wants to destroy so he can show hes deranged lust driven power over innocent life. this politician is a sick evil man who needs to be removed from office. how dare he decide what is good for a small child. this is taking authority to far. he is of the devil and knows. what an evil vile man, he should burn in hell |

#6902016-03-15 01:42To keep that poor and innocent dog Teddy, from being put down so he can go back to his loving family. |

#6922016-03-15 01:43I have volunteered with the local humane society for a year, working with many dogs, including pit bulls. I had a discriminatory attitude toward pits myself, but have never encountered any that were anything but loving and enthusiastic. That being said, the dog in the photos does not resemble a pit bull. If you look at the muzzle and body type, they are distinctly different. Pits have much more snub faces and robust torsos than this dog. I don't believe in across-the-board euthanasia for any breed, but I think the authorities should be more educated on what they are dealing with, even if (especially if) there are banned breeds. |

#6932016-03-15 01:43My daughter and I have a pit bull, he's very loyal and loving. No dog should be put down. Let teddy go home to be with his family. To me it looks like the 4 yr old needs her dog. |
Guest |
#6942016-03-15 01:43I have a 10 year old American Bulldog who looks just like teddy an she has been just perfect around kids an adults plus have resqued lots of these dogs an pit bulls NEVER NEVER had a problem with any whom i found good homes for they are so misunder stood that its not the dog but some of the wrong people who raise them I feel deeply for you Geoff Earl needs to pull his head out of his ass and spend time with one of these dogs because they are just great to be with. |

#6952016-03-15 01:44I love dogs and they are part of the family to those that have them. They show unconditional love. |

#6962016-03-15 01:441.It is wrong for a lay person, who has not conducted a genetic test, to just declare a dog to be a specific breed even though he does not look like a dreaded pit bull. 2. It is wrong to deprive a child of her close animal companion, even if it were the "wrong" breed. 3. It is wrong for JUST ONE ____ PERSON to have the power to override the opinion of several others. |

#6972016-03-15 01:45I'm the chief instructor for International K9 Search and Rescue Services. www.k9sardog.com there is absolutely no reason to kill this poor dog just because of it's breed. |
Guest |
#6982016-03-15 01:45This dog is obviously a mixed breed with no behavioral problems at all. This is dog racism. I have German Shepherds and they are sweet Hearts too. Do no kill this dog for his genetics. He looks like a black lab mix to me. |
Guest |
#6992016-03-15 01:46Just because they think the dog is a banned breed doesn't meant they should put him down. Who makes these decisions? He should be allowed back with his family who miss him so much. This is very unfair. |

#7002016-03-15 01:47THIS IS A VERY SAD DAY WHEN A PERSON CAN PUT AN ANIMAL DOWN BECAUSE THEY HAVE THE POWER AND THEY ARE NOT KNOWLEDGEABLE OF THE DOG AND HIS PERSONALTY ..THERE ARE NO BAD BULL DOGS.THERE ARE BAD PERSONS THAT OWN THEM. SAD,SAD,SAD |
