I think that this sounds good. The first decent new item I have seen in a while. Unless comics count...:P

That is good. I hope more of that kind of education gets out to the public and the idiotic officials making these stupid laws.

The only thing that bugged me about the article was the last line: (about training) "That's smart advice for any dog owner, even if you want a yappy Shih Tzu." There it is: Breed profiling....labeling the Shih Tzu as inherently yappy. That is directly labeling a breed as a whole, as being yappy, when in reality, much depends on training and other factors. They need to put their money where their mouth is if they want to put the brakes on breed profiling. Talk the talk, then walk the walk.

Good article. I like how someone finally came out and said that pitties don't belong in dog parks for their OWN safety, not because it's "mean".
