A Pit Bull's Response to BSL


You don't know me; we've yet to meet. But you seem to know all about me. I'm mean and vicious; I'd sooner attack than eat. I don't care who I bite- I'm not the least bit picky. This is why you don't want me here. My breed is too dangerous for your precious city. But you don't really know me. I can't understand what I did wrong! I only want to please- did my humans train me wrong? My humans taught me to cuddle and to love; I sleep in their bed allll night long. Maybe some dogs are mean and bite, But am I to blame for what they did wrong?
