They insist that breed-specific bans do not make communities safer. So does one of today's Front Burner columnists, Donald Cleary, co-author of "The Problem of Dog-Related Incidents and Encounters," a manual for emergency first responders published by the U.S. Department of Justice.

The Orlando Sentinel, March 24, 2013

* * * * *

The Orlando Sentinel's editorial feature Front Burner offers a forum for a vibrant exchange by guest columnists. On May 24th the Sentinel hosted a forum titled Should pit bulls be banned? Sentinel editorial writer Darryl E. Owens moderated the debate and offered a brief introduction.

The introduction claims that The Problem of Dog-Related Incidents and Encounters (PDRIE) is published by the U.S. Department of Justice. This is a gross misrepresentation. PDRIE was conceptualized, funded, and written by Mr. Cleary and his colleagues (including Ledy VanKavage and Karen Delise), and disseminated by the COPS program.

PDRIE "was developed under the auspices of the University of Illinois Center for Public Safety and Justice, Institute of Government and Public Affairs (IGPA), and made possible by a grant from the National Canine Research Council, LLC. (NCRC)," one of the foremost pit bull advocacy groups. The National Criminal Justice Reference Service (NCJRS) Abstract lists the IGPA as the corporate author and the NCRC as the sponsoring agency:

Corporate Author:	University of Illinois    Institute of Government and Public Affairs    United States of America
Sponsoring Agency:	National Canine Research Council, LLC    United States of America

PDRIE is presented as a training manual for officers of the law and other first responders, but this is a transparent disguise: it is a pit bull advocacy booklet which has caused immeasurable harm to the people it pretends to help. Pit bull advocacy groups and anti-BSL web sites heralded this training manual, some with shameful illustrations:

PDRIE is distributed by the Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) Resource Library. When SRUV contacted the library for clarification we received the following reply:

Thank you for contacting the COPS Office regarding The Problem of Dog-Related Incidents and Encounters publication. The COPS Office disseminates publications and other knowledge resources for the law enforcement community that represent a variety of perspectives and views. This is also reflected in the disclaimer we include in all of our publications.

Thank you,

COPS Office Response Center

SRUV also wrote to the President of the University of Illinois, as well as Directors of the IGPA, CPSJ, and the Police Training Academy, urging them to withdraw the publication and to destroy all copies. We have yet to receive a response.

Charges Pending

Jordyn Arndt, d. April 22, 2013, Age 4

* * * * *

There have been 13 fatal pit bull attacks so far in calendar year 2013; 8 of those killed have been children aged 7 or under.

District Attorneys and Prosecuting Attorneys have generally been reluctant to file charges in family dog attack cases, whether the victims are children or the elderly. The complex ethical and philosophical ramifications of charging a parent who has endangered their own child, and in many cases contributed to their maiming or death, apparently overwhelms many District Attorneys and Prosecuting Attorneys.

The increase in pit bull attacks during the last five years makes them impossible to ignore, and as a result more charges are being filed. A few of the recent cases in which charges have been filed (or may be pending) are listed below. News sources are given below.

* * * * * 

May 21, San Bernardino County, CA
VICTORVILLE • The San Bernardino County District Attorney’s Office filed felony charges Tuesday against a Barstow woman in connection with a Sunday night pit bull attack. Cheryl Morrow, 51, faces charges of assault with a deadly weapon and owning a mischievous animal which causes great bodily injury, according to court records.

* * * * * 

May 12, San Diego County, CA
Two pit bulls that terrorized the Valencia Park neighborhood for years were euthanized, This action was finally taken only AFTER a neighbor whose pet was mauled called ABC10 news. The pit bulls had killed another dog in 2009. San Diego County Animal Services had impounded the pair four times and returned them to the owners every time. The owners are now facing four misdemeanor charges, including leash law violations, and up to a $1,000 fine.

* * * * * 

April 29, Lebanon, ME
Three children including 12-year-old Angel Sargent were attacked by two pit bulls in the backyard of the home that her mother, Catherine Sargent, shares with her boyfriend, Rory Down. Angel was bitten all over her body but especially on her legs, shoulder, and neck. Down was in the home while two of his four pit bulls attacked Angel. Adam Horr, 41, of Dover, N.H., ran through 75 yards of wooded area to the girls’ aid and was also injured while rescuing Angel. NO CHARGES HAD BEEN FILED AS OF MAY 17th.

* * * * * 

April 26, 2013; Jasper County IA
Jordyn Arndt was killed by Jena Wright's pit bulls. Additional charges have been filed against Wright, Jordyn's babysitter. Wright was originally charged with child endangerment causing death, a Class B felony punishable by up to 25 years in prison. She was also charged with neglect or abandonment of a dependent person, a Class C felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison and a fine of $1,000 to $10,000. Wright was subsequently charged with the misdemeanor charges of assaulting a police officer and interfering with official acts.

April 24, 2013, College Park (Fulton County) GA
2-year old Beau Rutledge was mauled to death by his family's pit bull. The family had raised the dog for eight years, during which time it had never shown any aggression. Beau's father Jeremiah Rutledge was so distraught that officers were forced to subdue him with a Taser.
“We don’t know what made it attack the child as it did,” said Oliver Delk of Fulton County animal services.
When speaking to the news later Rutledge said “Those dogs cannot be domesticated. They cannot.”
Police said that no crime had been committed and no charges have been filed.

April 16, 2013, Bryan County GA
Summer Laminack, 18, was arrested Tuesday for second-degree cruelty to children in the death of her 21-month-old daughter, Monica Renee Laminack. Initial reports stated that Ms Laminack was asleep at five o'clock in the afternoon, with at least five other family members present in the house, when her daughter was killed by the family's seven pit bulls in the back yard. Later reports from Ms Laminack's attorney claimed that she was "studying for her GED" in an upstairs room. Further action by the Bryan County Grand Jury is pending.

* * * * * 

As this was being prepared for publication news arrived of an attack on a 2-day old infant in Coffeyville, Kansas.

The attack in Coffeyville brings to mind another recent Kansas pit bull attack, which resulted in the death of 2-year old Savannah Mae Edwards of Topeka on December 13, 2012, by her family's pit bull. No charges were filed in the death of Savannah Edwards.

Had charges been brought in the death of Savannah Edwards, either against the parents or against the shelter which adopted out the pit bull, the attack in Coffeyville might have been avoided. Pit bull attacks on children will end only when Prosecutors find the courage to bring charges of felony child endangerment against parents or relatives who bring pit bulls into their children's home.

There is no additional information on the attack on the newborn in Coffeyville.

2014 Dog Bite Related Fatalities on Daxton's Friends
Index of canine fatalities on Daxton's Friends

Definitions:
SRUV uses the definition of "pit bull" as found in the Omaha Municipal Code Section 6-163. As pit bulls are increasingly crossed with exotic mastiffs, Catahoula Leopard Dogs and other breeds, the vernacular definition of "pit bull" must be made even more inclusive.

Sources cited by news media sometimes refer to "Animal Advocates" or sometimes "Experts." In many cases these words are used to refer to single-purpose pit bull advocates who have never advocated for any other breeds or species of animals. Media would be more accurate to refer to these pit bull advocates as advocates of fighting breeds.

Similarly, in many cases pit bull advocates refer to themselves as "dog lovers" or "canine advocates" and media often accepts this usage. The majority of these pit bull advocates are single-purpose advocates of fighting breeds.

Into the Wormhole

Recent pit-bull episodes have reminded people of just how aggressive the breed is, how brutal its bite can be and how much strengthening most existing animal-control ordinances need in order to give the public better protection.
(LA Times, 1987)

* * * * *

Reading Biting Back at Pit Bulls (Los Angeles Times, Aug 25, 1987) is a Back To The Future experience. It is an unsigned editorial and appears to represent the official opinion of the editorial board.

The sense of urgency seems prophetic, in light of what has happened in the intervening quarter century. In 1987 pit bulls & close pit bull mixes were under 2% of the dog population, but were already 5% of the dogs admitted to shelters and 10% of the dogs killed in shelters. Human fatalities from dog attacks averaged under two a year in the US, with pit bulls accounting for one of those. No dog adopted from a shelter (or rescue) was known to have ever killed anyone.

If we enter the wormhole to come back to 2013, pit bulls and their mixes are now 4.8% of the dog population, and comprise about 30% of the dogs admitted to shelters and 60% of the dogs killed in shelters. Human fatalities from dog attacks now average more than 30 per year, two-thirds of which are committed by pit bulls. Dogs adopted by families from shelters (pit bulls, Rottweilers, and one husky) have killed 11 people since 2010. (See below for data.)

* * * * * 

How did this happen, when the warning signs were clear a quarter century ago? A comment under a recent news account* offers an explanation:

Dog fighters moved to popularize this breed after the feds criminalized dog fighting. Over population of pit bulls and pit bulls in family homes makes it impossible to spot dog fighters. We put down ONE million unwanted pit bulls a year. Stop listening to the propaganda put out by very wealthy and cruel dog fighters who don't care about pit bulls or people. Stop helping them. Do not take in pit bulls as pets. Don't be a pawn.

Pit bulls moved out of the fighting pits and into our homes, beginning about thirty years ago; the animal welfare movement has been a willing accomplice in bringing fighting breeds into our homes. HSUS has pumped vast resources in advocating for pit bulls, as have the ASPCA, the AVMA, Best Friends Animal Society, Animal Farm Foundation, and hundreds of local pit bull advocacy groups. To what end have they done this? There is no greater danger to the animal welfare movement than its own advocacy of pit bulls. **

* * * * * 

Pamela Maria Devitt was killed by pit bulls 65 miles northeast of Los Angeles earlier this month. The day after the May 9th attack an editor at the Los Angeles Times wrote a personal opinion piece which claimed that pit bulls are not dangerous. The Times has published dog-friendly articles on the 10th, 11th, the 16th (two articles), the 17th, and the 19th, but has not offered a recent opinion on pit bulls.

For an official opinion from the LA Times we must enter the wormhole and go back to 1987. The editorial, perhaps from a more courageous, forthright editorial board, ends with the following call for Breed Specific Legislation:

To be effective, animal-control ordinances must do precisely what their name implies: Control animals and remove those that threaten public safety before they attack, not after. With pit bulls, the traditional concept that an animal is entitled to one bite is just too dangerous.

The editorial has not been repudiated; it has simply been buried in the archives. Now is the time to reaffirm this enlightened position.

In Trouble Again

Revised: May 14, 2013; 16:22 GMT
Revised: May 17, 2013; 13:40 GMT

To: The Editorial Board of the LA Times

We take great exception to the editorial of May 10, 2013. titled Pit bulls in trouble again.*  There are a number of misrepresentations which we will bring to your attention.

SRUV has previously noted that after particularly horrific pit bull attacks there inevitably follows a stream of articles defending pit bulls; your editorial follows in that tradition. There are other articles currently in the news which also shift the focus from pit bull attacks in an effort to generate sympathy for pit bulls. An appeal for sympathy for the killer, rather than an expression of sorrow, grief, or condolence for the victim, demonstrates a callous disregard for the victims of pit bull attacks. Advocating for fighting breeds is questionable; following a canine homicide it is repugnant.

The opinion piece in the Los Angeles Times followed by one day the death of 63-year-old Pamela Maria Devitt, who was dragged 50 yards by four pit bulls, scalped, and dismembered. Your editor mentions the death of Ms Devitt in the first sentence, then in the second sentence callously pivots to defending pit bulls for the remainder of her opinion piece. The death is all but forgotten.

There have been fifteen fatal dog attacks in calendar year 2013, twelve of them by pit bulls. There have been at least 130 attacks which resulted in permanent disfigurement or dismemberment, 114 of them by pit bulls. It is estimated that attacks on our more vulnerable animal companions are on the order of 10x the attacks on humans.

Most pit bull advocacy articles are authored by self-acknowledged advocates of fighting breeds. We have never before seen this kind of pit bull advocacy, coming on the heels of a canine homicide, from an opinion editor of a major newspaper.

There are a number of flaws in your editorial. First, you mention that many pit bulls involved in attacks are abused, or are presumably dogs associated with the drug and crime culture. This is far from true. Of the canine homicides this year at least half were caused by family pets. Many had been with their family since they were puppies.

Furthermore, you make the fallacy of unwarranted generalization: you've known a few nice pit bulls and generalize that all pit bulls must therefore be nice.

You ignore the behavioral trait known as Idiopathic Aggression, which cannot be tested for and which causes pit bulls that have not previously shown aggression to launch unprovoked attacks. Idiopathic aggression has been known and written about by animal behaviorists for decades, but is something pit bull advocates refuse to acknowledge.

You have published misleading information advocating for fighting breeds.  You have performed a  grave disservice to the many victims of pit bull attacks. We urge The Times to publish a correction  and offer an apology to your readers.

The Times could do even more, and become a leader in the movement for protecting the public from fighting breeds. Over 500 communities currently protect their citizens with some form of Breed Specific Legislation (BSL), including mandated spay/neutering, microchipping, or requiring insurance for designated breeds. The need for BSL is being recognized across California and the Nation. The Los Angeles Times, as well as responsible owners, should welcome and advocate for these public safety measures.

Breed Holocaust

Revised: Dec. 19, 2013; 13:09 GMT
Revised: May 17, 2014; 20:01 GMT

On 9 July 2000, in response to a quickly approaching deadline (at which time Germany was to begin euthanizing innocent pets) dee dee Andersson of the United States, Anne Griffin of the United Kingdom and Catherine Walker of Austria joined together to found the DogHolocaust International Mailing List.
   -- Dog Holocaust

A new article in a Colorado paper refers to breed banning as "a Holocaust against dogs." Once again we are stunned by the inappropriate and demeaning linking of breed specific laws and human horror. The 20th Century saw millions of human beings murdered in the Holocaust and genocides. To compare this to breed bans is an example of the extreme ignorance -- perhaps the dangerous ignorance -- of some members of the dog lobby in the USA.

The Salish Wool Dog was a white, long-haired, Spitz-type dog developed and bred by the native peoples of the Pacific Northwest Coast. The breed was kept on islands and in gated caves, and bred for its valuable wool. The Salish Wool Dog is thought to be the only true canine breed developed prehistorically in the Americas, and was considered extinct as a distinct breed by 1858. The last identifiable wool dog died in 1940.

The Salish Wool Dog is one of dozens of extinct breeds of dogs, and other breeds are currently on the verge of extinction. The Otterhound, a venerable UK breed, registered only 38 puppies in 2011, a decline of 33% from the previous year. The Skye terrier registered only 44 puppies. Dozens of once-popular breeds have become extinct  Those with the greatest interest in preserving breeds, the breeders themselves, are sometimes at fault for breeding a dog to the verge of extinction. A recent article in the NY Times Magazine (Can the Bulldog be Saved? by Benoit Denizet-Lewis) noted three independent reports which questioned whether it is ethically defensible to continue breeding them [Bulldogs] at all.

The question of a guided or planned extinction of a canine breed was recently raised under different circumstances. Jeffrey Borchard vowed he'll lead a charge to have pit bull dogs "bred into extinction."  Mr Borchard has earned the right to speak on this matter; his 14-month-old son Daxton was killed on March 6th by two pit bulls while at a babysitter's home. The pit bulls belonged to the babysitter and they had not previously demonstrated aggressive tendencies.

How to Build a Dog (by Evan Ratliff, National Geographic, February 2012) reveals that the vast mosaic of dog shapes, colors, and sizes is decided largely by changes in a mere handful of gene regions. Another way of looking at it is that Yorkshire Terriers are genetically nearly identical to Great Danes. According to Ratliff, breeders achieved the great diversity of canine sizes, shapes, and appearance by speeding up and tinkering with normal evolution. Canines have been artificially evolved into the most diverse animal on the planet.

The various breeds, established by man and sometimes allowed by man to go extinct, are ephemeral. While the loss of a breed may be mourned there is no overall loss of genetic diversity, and there is no moral imperative to sustain a breed, especially one developed for the sole purpose of fighting. The loss of a dog breed is not equivalent to the loss of a species, for example the impending loss of the polar bear species. A breed of dog may be mourned because its loss evokes the passing of an era or a way of life, just as the ascendancy of new and different breeds may be the harbinger of a different way of life.

On June 26th, 2000, six-year old Volkan Kaya was attacked by two dogs, an American Staffordshire terrier and a pit bull. Volkan had been playing soccer with schoolmates in the schoolyard, and was killed while his schoolmates looked on in horror.

Volkan Kaya, d. June 26, 2000

By July 7th, the state of Lower Saxony had passed Breed Specific Legislation (BSL) which required aggression tests for a proscribed list of breeds. The advocates of fighting breeds responded to this mild form of BSL with the fury that has come to characterize the movement on both sides of the Atlantic. Two days later the Dog Holocaust web site launched. The excerpt above (from the home page) is the first known use of the term Holocaust in conjunction with BSL.

Pit bull advocates elaborated on the BSL = Holocaust metaphor with their systematic corruption of Pastor Niemöller's enduring Holocaust meditation First They Came. Coupling BSL laws, which are intended to protect the public, with the systematic murder of millions of people is a gross obscenity.

The advocates of fighting breeds who make this comparison fail to grasp the enormity of the crimes against humanity committed by the Nazis, and in this way victimize the Jewish people a second time. To equate the loss of a type of dog with the murder of millions of humans is a brutal, dehumanizing analogy.
