What is BSL and how can it affect you?
Breed Specific Legislation is the restriction or banning of a breed. Innocent animals are taken from loving homes like yours and mine and destroyed only because of their breed, or a breed they resemble. About every 10 years a new breed comes under scrutiny. In the past it has been Doberman Pinchers, Rotwiellers, and now the Pit Bull. Dont think this can affect you? Here is a list of just a few local towns and their stance on BSL.
Beaver Dam Being discussed
East Troy Banned new pit bulls, restrict existing
Horicon Being discussed
Juneau Pit Bulls banned
Milwaukee Restriction on Pit Bulls and Rotwiellers
South Milwaukee Banned
Waukesha Ban being discussed
Many dog bites/attacks that are reported to be Pit Bulls are actually other breeds. There are 20+ breeds commonly mistaken as a Pit Bull. Please, help us promote responsible dog ownership for ALL breeds before BSL moves on to another breed.
We are celebrating our love of ALL dogs in West Bend on October 20th! Please come out and join us. We are inviting several trainers to any questions you might have. This is a way to educate others on responsible dog ownership and BSL. Come for the cook out, conversation, and fun!!
We welcome volunteers. For more information please contact Jeremy or Kathleen at
