Breed-Specific

broken image

Have you heard the term ‘breed-specific’? This most often comes in the context of rules or laws. Many apartment homes, condos, etc. will pass breed-specific laws for their renters. For instance, they may say dogs are allowed as long as they are under 50 pounds and are not breeds such as pit bulls, Rottweilers, etc. This is a breed-specific law. Also known as BSLs, they are more commonly known as bans or restrictions on certain types of dogs that are perceived as dangerous breeds. Sometimes these laws are taken to the extreme or are even misinterpreted. For example, there are some laws that ban dog breeds that aren’t actually dangerous. Pitbulls, for example, are often misrepresented and often banned or prohibited. It’s important to understand that a dog’s behavior has a lot to do with surroundings, training, etc. You can learn more about these laws from your vet clinic Hyattsville, MD.
