We have a law here in Delaware for the city of Wilmington, people that own Pits have to register them and license them. If you don't you get fined and the dog is taken from you and placed in the SPCA. This doesn't work either because what happens is people just go get another dog and leave that one in the SPCA. It's filled with pits, I'd say 90% are from people not following the law in Wilmington.
At least they're not putting them down, they've tried to become a no kill shelter. But still it's sad to see dogs there for a year or so. Most pits most because of the law.
There has to be a better way. Regardless of the breed, it breaks my heart. No animal should have to live in a cage.
