Dangerous Dogs Act - Trinidad and Tobago

[Halfbreed07]

Ok lets ban the selling of cutlasses or cars. These things kill more people than dogs.

[Pretender]

I don't understand how they can just proclaim this law after so long without any discussions with, as they always claim on the news, the relevant stakeholders. because there are foolish ppl who do not secure or socialize their dogs properly everyone else must pay? Pitbulls are not even inherently aggressive toward people. Dumba$$es want to aggression train their dog so they can boast about it.

I have no problem with those type of people feeling the full brunt of the law when their dog escapes and attacks someone. But that shud be the standard for any breed of dog or anything an individual owns. People whose pothounds roam the street tearing up garbage and painting the street with $hit everytime i wash my car shud be held accountable as well.

T&T has no DNA database to prove that a dog is a pitbull. Most kennel clubs abroad don't even recognise pitbulls as pure bred dogs. Are many owners dogs to be destroyed by hasty police officers on the complaint of stupid neighbors (by which i am surrounded).

[BrotherHood]

At the end of the day, it's the owner to blame when dogs maul civilians so I don't see what this sheit is alla bout.

[Pretender]

I hope we can really come together and send a message to the government. I am dumbfounded how Minister Gypsy, who has owned, bred and sold pitbulls, be so silent about the breed specific sections of this law.

If this is proclaimed without any amendments i look forward to the day when they start neutering rapists and chopping off the hands of child abusers and seizing all the worldly possessions of convicted bandits.

Why not? My dogs are innocent and they must now be neutered.

remember the cougar (big cat) being kept in valsayn?

10 Things Your Dog Would Tell You If He/She Could Actually Talk....

1. My life is likely to last 10 to 15 years. Any separation from you will be painful: remember that before you get me.
2. Give me time to understand what you want of me.
3. Place your trust in me- it is crucial to my well being.
4. Do not be angry at me for long, and do not lock me up as punishment.
5. You have your work, your entertainments, and your friends. I only have you.
6. Talk to me sometimes. Even if I don't understand your words, I understand and know your voice when speaking to me.
7. Be aware that how ever you treat me, I will never forget.
8. Remember before you hit me that I have teeth that could easily hurt you, even accidentally out of fear, but I choose not to bite you because I love you.
9. Before you scold me for being uncooperative, stubborn, or lazy, ask yourself if something might be bothering me. Perhaps I might not be getting the right food, or I have been out too long, or my heart is getting to old and weak.
10. Take care of me when I get old; you too will grow old. Go with me on the difficult journeys. Never say: "I cannot bear to watch" or "Let it happen in my absence." Everything is easier for me if you are there, even my death. Because remember that I love you unconditionally

Crazy law........ Lets rally together against this bs law.

Sheriff,

[Sheriff]

Pioneer, thanks.

[Sky]

Does this mean the price of Shepards gonna raise?

[Sheriff]

Sky, all dog prices will raise.

[Habit7]

Puppy meat certainly going down though

[Yodins]

i think they should go house by house and inspect any "dangerous dog". when you clear inspection, your dog is certified as a non-dangerous dog and you will no longer have to fear about getting your dog shot or any victimisation of the sorts from membes of the pubic.

[Yodins]

that post make me cry yes DFC

[evolution91]

this is such a BS law, that needs to be revised, you can just label dogs as dangerous, dogs are trainned therefore they are trainned to be dangerous, i have 3 pitbulls and they are pretty much normal, anyone can play with them

[Garrett Inside]

Real dogs gonna get killed, or let loose on the roads to die of starvation, bounce, and disease ....so sad.

[slimshiney]

ban humans...they are the most dangerous being on the planet


their should also be a dotish politicians act

Somethings are just better when quoted...........

For crying out loud.....put measures in place but c'mon man.......doh make it known that yuh head only echoing when we talking in yuh ear.....

What about the playful bears?? I agree humans must be 1st priority but..consider them a little to nuh? What would backlash of this be?

..... Spent so much time and $$ with this feller.........i miss him

[EFFECTIC DESIGNS]

The only problem with all of this is in Trinidad you can't depend on police since they never have vehicles to come to ur rescue. It should only be a charge if you are caught walking your dog in public or if ur yard is not properly secured. Especially concrete beam under the fencing.

[Halfbreed07]

I woke up at 4am to feed my baby and looking at her innocence I could not help but feel to cry because once the dangerous dog bill is passed I may have to put her down. The bill in its current form is flawed. The pit bulls are not the problem, the irresponsible owners are. All dog owners please come to our meeting on sunday at the QPS for 1 o'clock so we can put an end to the killing of a breed.

[Halfbreed07]

I hope we can really come together and send a message to the government. I am dumbfounded how Minister Gypsy, who has owned, bred and sold pitbulls, be so silent about the breed specific sections of this law.

Why not? My dogs are innocent and they must now be neutered.

Dr. Glen Ramadharsigh is a vet, I hope he sees the flaws in the bill.

[Team Loco]

The flaw in this bill is that its in this backward country. Imagine people now hearing about the term spayed and neutered

I understand fully where ur coming from and u have my full support.
But..I believe this would not be enforced just like all the others in this country.

This is Trinidad. After a month everybody forget this and back to business as usual.

i think it will go this way also but we should still fight it just incase maybe it will save at least one pit from being put to sleep because of this and not because he did anything wrong.
I also seriously don't think i could bare seeing stray or dead pitbulls on the side of the road it would break my heart as i know the love they have inside them for there owners.

[Halfbreed07]

well its a chance i am not willing to take because i cannot afford to give up 2 of my dogs that i love and care for.

[slimshiney]

Remember that it was humans who took the grey wolf and domesticated it into the modern-day dog. Are we so above the laws of nature that we assume all dogs lose their inherited wild traits and live to serve us?

put ban on humans to!!! Isn't it funny....the same things we created.........
