I wish people would stop breeding all dogs and cats. At least until the shelters are empty and stay that way. I know that will never happen, but that's what I wish. I am sure there are exceptions to this, but most of the people I've ever met who have strong pro-pitbull opinions are rescuers or owners of rescue dogs who fear breed bans would mean the confiscation and euthanasia of their pit bulls or other rescue pit bull type pets (I'm not saying that laws that would do that are being seriously considered, I'm just saying that's what I think the real fear is for the people I know.) I can also say without a doubt that every single one of those people would cheer a ban on *breeding* them, as they are like me, and would cheer a ban on all breeding. (I love dogs, but I have no real skin in this argument, I do cat rescue.)
I 100% support mandatory neutering for all dogs unless they are literal AKC breeding stock with papers and even then owners should have to pay for that right (maybe with proceeds going to sterilization of other dogs)
