The restrictions for the pittys are the same here in Vic, it was just so long (double sided a4 brochure) I figured if people really want to know what it said, they can look. I hope that doesn't come across in a rude way, its really not supposed to. I don't agree that any dog should be kept under these conditions, and to be perfectly honest, ours isn't. Yes, it IS in a secure yard, but shouldn't every dog be? Big, little, fluffy or restricted? We don't have the big sign out the front that says restricted dog on premises, because in our opinion, we may as well wave a big flag to all the numbskulls that want that kind of dog, saying "here's one, come and get it!". Then, our family dog would be stolen, and be treated cruely. We know we should have a sign, we choose not to. She is desexed, but not because she needs to be as a restricted dog, but because she doesn't need to be a full dog. She doesn't need to come on heat for no reason, being that we have no intention of breeding her (whether legal or not), as there are more than enough dogs (of all kinds) out there as it is. All of our dogs have been from the pound or needed new homes for some reason or another.
I accept your opinion on pitties and rat/lap dogs brontide. I just don't like very small dogs. I haven't met one that I feel very comfortable with, or hasn't shown a really nasty streak. I know they are all real dogs.
