How many people know what the BSL Law/Ban is?

Better question, how many people care?

This law, as a quick sum up of it, will now ban pit bull, staffordshire terriers, staffordshire bull terriers, or any breed of dog that has a mix of these breeds in it.

So now you ask well what about the people who already own these animals?

These people must pay a fine/tax to keep their beloved dog, have it microchipped, muzzled, proper tags on its collar, and there are certain leash lengths it must be held at if you want to take it on a walk.

Well, what about these breeds that are living in a shelter waiting for their furever homes?

Those dogs that are these three breeds or have one of these three in the genes, will be euthanized. They will never find their furever homes because of this law.

So why would they pass such a horrible law?

They passed this law because of fear, fear of their “large heads.” There were too many people who feared these breeds because these three breeds: pit bulls, staffordshire terriers, staffordshire bull terriers, are all used for dog fighting and are used as defense dogs to scare away unwanted people on private properties.

People need to remember that dogs are trained to be aggressive by their owners and not by how their genetics are evolving them.

Even though this law was passed in Montreal it can still be passed in the United States. Which means the many of places that do pit bull rescues will be shut down because all of those dogs will be euthanized.

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
