Dangerous Dog registry includes GS!
This town is in the Atlanta area I believe.
College Park, GA (WAOK) Saying it’s acting in the interest of public safety, College Park officials will enact a “dangerous dog” registry next month that some critics say is very close to canine profiling. Residents owning dogs that have, without provocation, bitten someone during the last 12 years, will be required to register their pet with the city clerk’s office. Pit bull, Doberman, Rottweiler and German shepherd owners, will also have to register their dogs whether they have ever attacked someone or not.

I hope they defined what a "Pit Bull" is? What about the dangerous dogs missing from their list?
It could prove to be lucrative for the litigious soul. Here's the plan: Find a dog owner with a non-listed breed, like lets say a South African Boerboel. Here is the hard part....get bit! Then, file a law suit against the City for their negligence in failing to require the breed/owner to be identified as dangerous. We could take over the world Pinky.

I want them to add Springer Spaniels, Chihuahuas, Dachsunds, Lhapso Apsos and Rat Terriers to the Dangerous Dog List because I have been bitten by a Springer Spaniel and I have friends that have been bitten by the rest of the breeds I mentioned.

Banning on Breed of dog is so dumb.
Out of my 3 the one that I have to watch the most when strangers come in is not the GSD but GASP! the border collie apparently he takes guarding his flock to mean our whole family and yard.

I don't have a problem in the world with a registry of dogs that have, unprovoked, bitten someone. I do have a problem with breed restrictions and registration because of a specific breed.

Shouldn't it just be, "If your dog has unprovoked bitten a person in the last 12 years you must register with the city clerks office as a potentially dangerous dog." Any breed could fall into this category. But they continuously go after the same breeds. Ridiculous!
