Subject: Breed Specific Legislation (BSL) “Dangerous” breed dogs in
For the attention to: The
Right Honorable The President of the Republic of Slovenia, Dr Danilo Türk, and his wife The Right Honorable Barbara Miklic
Türk, together with the
Prime Minister of the Republic of Slovenia, The Right Honorable Borut Pahor and The
Right Honorable Zmago
JELINČIČ PLEMENITI.
My name is Mariano Peinado and I am writing to
you from
I have the honour to be the president of the INTERNATIONAL
ASSOCIATION FOR DEFENCE CANINE AND HIS RESPONSIBLE OWNERS (IADCRO) and the FIAPBT. For me is a great honour to write to you in the name of all FIAPBT & IADCRO´S Members and the animal rights lovers distributed around
the world which endorse our work. I send you this information for your amiable consideration.
Located in
In IADCRO we are people with more of 40 years
inside of dogs and IADCRO is composing by
professional technicians around the dog like for example; ethology scientists people, naturalistic, veterinary, university professors specialized in
genetics, breeders, trainers, biologists, etc.
THE ETHOLOGY SCIENTISTS TALK ABOUT THE “DANGEROUS” CANINE
BREEDS OR BREED DOGS. http://www.fiapbt.net/etologia2.html
The reason to communicate with you,
is for to
give you some suggestions if you allow us,
of course, we would tell you that in our humble opinion about the 14 noble breed dogs that soon will be
banned in
The 14 noble breed dogs are the next:
• American Pit Bull Terrier
• American Staffordshirse Terrier
• Staffordshire Bull Terrier
• Ca de Bou
(Mastiff),
• Dogo Canario,
• Dogo Argentino,
• Fila Brasiliero,
• Neapolitan Mastiff,
• Bulmastiff,
• Bouge de
Bordeaux,
• Rottweiler,
• Cane Corso,
• Akita Inu,
• Tosa Inu.
The information that I come to provide to you, comes from several
professional sectors of the canine union of several countries,
that show their opinion under the experience acquired in the course of
theirs lives, about the existence or not existence of “Dangerous or Potentially
Dangerous” breed dogs. The professionals more remarkable than guarantee this
information, are those that are more than enabled to advise to the executive,
with respect to the existence or not of Dangerous or Potentially Dangerous
breed dogs and it has not considered to them to
advise,
I talk about the information that the ethology scientists people provide to us. The ethology scientists people, are the scientific professionals indicated and
better qualified to talk and to advise about the American Pit Bull Terrier (APBT) and the others 13 breed dogs, since they
have studied during many years the character and behavior
of the APBT and its surroundings.
Ethology is the science
that studies the behavior of the free animal and,
when it does with domestic animals (as it is the case of the dog) realises it
since the approach of applied Ethology. Several ethology scientists people of different
countries, have declared publicly from
point of view scientific, that none breed dog are not a dangerous breed
dogs, nor the American Pit Bull
Terrier for being the worse breed dog considered
between the rest of breed dogs, is not either a dangerous
breed dog, is a breed dog like any other
within species canine and that everything will depend by all means for the dog
will be dangerous or no, on the surroundings in which it grows up, and on the
education that received by its owner, unique
person in charge of the damages who could make his animal, like the father is
it with his minor son. Also the ethology scientists people emphasize, the nonconvenience of classifying or of cataloguing breed dogs
in negative way, so that it goes to the detriment of this marvellous and noble
breed dogs and it confused to the citizens, to the point to even cause an
unwarranted social alarm, quite harmful in several aspects for the own society.
In the FIRST INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS OF IADCRO, it has been demonstrated
scientifically by the ethology scientists, the nonexistence of Dangerous
or Potentially Dangerous breed dogs. http://www.iadcro.com/informationcongress.html
Association for the Study of the Dog and its Surroundings (AEPE) http://www.aepe.net
Mr. Antonio Pozuelos President (AEPE) and one of the higher recognized ethology scientist people of international scope, In
our opinion he is the most recognized, not only by the knowledge and experience
that owns in almost the 40 years studying the dogs daily of all breed dogs,
also by his human quality. http://www.aepe.net
In order to resist the information that I make
arrive to you and your executive team, also can contact with infinity of ethology scientists people through the following electronic direction: http://www.fiapbt.net/etologia2.html
I have provided our research data on the bite stats
for several Cities and countries further in this correspondence, because is
good idea for to open eyes to incredulous and sceptical people, so understood that would not be to discriminate and to catalogue breed
dogs like Dangerous or Potentially Dangerous, only would should be to describe in the Law to the Potentially
Dangerous dog like individual and by his activities of behavior,
independently the size without giving importance if the dog is of one or the
other breed dog or mixed dog. Also
is necessary to describe in the Law to the owner irresponsible
of dog, for this way fomenting and teaching to be good
responsible owners of dog and to describe
in the Law too, the activities realised with dogs contemplated like crime, like
for example it could be the organized fights with dogs or other activities in
which mistreats or the life of the dog is put in risk.
Our thinking is that all breeds can be dangerous or none, that the only means
to identify what is or is not a dangerous dog like individual is by his
behaviour and not by his breed.
STATISTICS OF SEVERAL COUNTRIES
(referring to the attacks of dog to people): http://www.fiapbt.net/statistics.htm
Enough ethology
scientists people and politicians of several countries, have shown their
approval the project of Law that we have realised in IADCRO, showed that this
project of indicated Law this so that every day promotes plus the human feeling
and the spirit of solidarity towards all alive being ". These
professionals talking about to our project of Law,
have aimed that is indeed what it needs to determine a general law that is right and effective for all the breed dogs the
same without discriminations, that defend all the dogs of the different breed
dogs, mixed and sizes. Once defined the Law under the terms of our project of
Law, he will without doubt provide
greater security to the citizens by his immediate effectiveness and at the
same time, also will provide major
security to the dogs of all the breed dogs, mixed and of any size, for the
same reason.
Besides information on breed dogs and concretely of
APBT, that humbly and with all our good will I make arrive to you, to
contribute positively and somehow in the security of the citizens of your
country, also I provide to you the Law project realised in IADCRO so that if
you consider it opportune, will be considered by your team.
IADCRO
Project Law: http://www.iadcro.com/leycorrecta.html
Some countries that had adopted negative Laws against American Pit Bull Terrier and others breed
dogs, but since many years ago and not of now, concretely since the year 1991
as it is the case of England, in
1993 the case of Holland, Italy, Bermuda, etc. After to have studied the information that from
IADCRO we made them arrive at the same time and, to the salary verified by
their own eyes the inefficiency of this type of Law that discriminates and
excludes American Pit Bull Terrier
and others breed dogs of their corresponding countries, included/understood the
total inefficiency of the Law when not offering security to their citizens,
since the statistics of attacks of dogs to people of his country, they
indicated that not only it had not been reduced the attacks, quite the
opposite, had been increased the attacks and the deaths although to have excluded American Pit Bull Terrier and the others breed dogs of all their national
territory, since the attacks were produced by dogs of any breed dogs and its
mixed.
The governors of these countries, understood of the
necessity of the creation of a Law that did not name “Dangerous or Potentially
Dangerous” breed and that concentrated in fomenting
and teaching the RESPONSIBLE owner
dog, without mattering if it were about a American Pit Bull Terrier or a Cocker, because a Cocker into the hands of an IRRESPONSIBLE
owner, also can bring about deaths of people, not only by accidents of
traffic when trying to run over to the animal, also by the mortal bit that can
cause these dogs of small size to young children, which although are young are
people also as all we know.
Today we are very glad when we can read in the news that the Government of these Countries
telling that the BSL don´t work and is not good for the security
of the citizens:
-
Annulled the Law of “the Potentially Dangerous breed dogs” by its inefficiency
in

http://www.italymag.co.uk/italy/politics/scrapping-dog-blacklist-proposed http://www.iadcro.com/italia.html
- Annulled the Law of “the Potentially Dangerous breed dogs” by its
inefficiency in
Why not to learn of the errors of other
countries, when they prohibited and they excluded by Law American Pit Bull Terrier and others breed dogs
of all their National territory, with the idea to reduce the attacks of dog to
the people without obtaining it?
“To rectify it is of wise people” and this attitude in the politicians, the
citizens values it and is thankful for it, still more when this Law goes
against the own life and in addition it
harms the property rights of the citizen.

In
In our humble opinion, the animal lovers we
believe that it comes to mean that the information that we are sending to you
in this email is important and update with good foundations and just for the
animals rights, in this case for the dogs rights and we would be
thankful to you if you have the amiability to consider it, so that the citizens
and animal that live in your marvelous Country, can
benefit from it contributing greater security for them.
In our opinion, the
Breed Specific
Legislation (BSL) about “Dangerous” breed dogs that want to apply it soon in
In IADCRO and the FIAPBT we considered, that
catalogue 14 breed dogs like dangerous and will be banned in
The breed dogs does not make bad dogs, is the people (Irresponsible
and bad owners) that make it that way. Then the problem,
Would be due to take a cut from the root, condemning to the irresponsible
owners of dog, instead of condemning some breed dogs? In honour to the
justice, the full name of the breed dogs would be due to exclude from the
Law that have catalogued themselves and classified like potentially dangerous, since this unjust cataloguing
and its ban is the worse sentence for its lifes.
The people that wish to prohibit these 14 noble breed dogs in all the territory
of your country, when happened a time under this prohibit Law and by their own
experience verify that the attacks of dogs to people instead to be reduced the
real thing is that the attacks of dogs to people were increased, by the
ineffective of this Law, then What do they will do now? Be eliminating more
breed dogs the same now they want to do with 14 noble breed dogs, one in one
until reaching more that the 400 existing breed dogs and that are equipped with
a physically strength even to kill an adult and strong man? And with the
crossings of all these 400 breed dogs, What do they
will do now? so that the crossings of these more 400
breed dogs also are more than enabled even to physically to kill an adult and
strong man.
And with almost of the 200 breed dogs that although are not enabled to
physically to kill an adult and strong man, they are enabled for kill of small
children, What are going to make then with these almost 200 small breed dogs,
would eliminate also them one in one? And its crossings?
The small children are people also, in addition they are those that more
undergo the attacks of the dogs and those that pass away more in these
unfortunate accidents, which by the way are not American Pit Bull Terrier or the other 13 breed dogs that want to prohibit
in your country, but so that the news runs as the powder and is saleable for
the hearing, one names almost always to that 14 breed dogs as the cause of the
attack to people, and this is not true. Therefore and some others questions,
enough people think that only this 14 breed dogs is the cause of the attacks to
the people
The people that wish to prohibit these 14 noble breed dogs in
FALSE NEWS AGAINST THE APBT: http://www.iadcro.com/mentiras.html
Not only attacks 14 breed dogs, attack all the breed dogs and their
crossings if they are in irresponsible hands. Or all the breed dogs and their
crossings are dangerous or none. In IADCRO we thought that no breed dog is
dangerous or potentially dangerous. We think that the cause for the dogs attack
the human, everything is going to depend on the control, education and
responsibility that offers the owner to his dog and is in this indeed, where
the Law must thoroughly have applied and it does not do it, focusing its
preoccupation mainly in the elimination of a noble and wonderful 14 breed dogs,
which indeed the are being used to realise all type of social workings for
benefit of the humanity, like for example:
IT
RESCUES AND RESCUE WITH AMERICAN PIT BULL TERRIER. http://www.fiapbt.net/rescate.html
Therapy Attended Physical and Psychic Handicappeds using American PIT
BULL Terrier. http://www.iadcro.com/terapia.html
By the all this the International American
Pit Bull Terrier Federation (FIAPBT),
Officially Certificated in the year 2000 to the breed
dog American Pit Bull Terrier, like “HUMANITY
BENEFICIAL BREED DOG”. From IADCRO &
FIAPBT and others Institutions, Clubs, Associations around the dogs, we
endorsed and we supported this positive cataloguing without doubt to the breed dog American Pit Bull
Terrier, for being deserving of her and
to be the worst breed dog considerate of all breed dogs in this subject.
We
would not have to forget to us, that the dogs have been always from the
beginnings of the humanity, the best friend of the man, facilitating to us
company, security and can to eat day to day for our survival.
In my Town called Colmenar Viejo, there a proverb
that could be applied in this subject. It comes to describe this lamentable and
unfortunate situation that is living your Country at the moment and which says,
“Dead the dog, the rage finished”. I do not believe that anybody
would think it, to kill all the dogs of the world to end the rage, unless it were thought by people with suffered brain damage.
Our thinking is that all
breeds can be dangerous or none, that the only means to identify what is or is
not a dangerous dog like individual is by his behaviour and not by his breed.
We can observe, that in some
countries where some breed dogs were catalogued like “Potentially Dangerous”,
the attacks of dogs to people with the spend of the years after to be implanted the Law of “Dangerous Breeds” the attacks
of dogs to people not only did not fall, unfortunately were increased and by
breed dogs that are not considered " Dangerous", as always it had
been ocurred. Of it has comes the disappointment from
many ex-owners of dogs in owning dogs, when they at the time acquired dogs of
breeds catalogued like very good and helpful, used even like dogs for blind people, like
they are the Labrador Retriever, Golden Retriever, Collie, etc. and could
verify in his own meats, that these dogs educated incorrectly were very
dangerous with the adult people and young. For this reason from IADCRO we
insisted on recommending, that the Law would not must to discriminate or
catalogue breeds for good or bad way and yes, would be needed to foment and teaching to be a
responsible owner of dog, indifferently the breed that
the Slovenia dog owners
have.
Acting in this sense dear ladies and gentlemen, in our opinion will be
able to offer a greater protection to the citizens and at the same time, also
a greater protection to the dogs would be provided. Also in this 14 noble breeds, the DIGNITY would be given back to them that was robbed to them.
We hope that all this information,
will be of your interest for your amiable
consideration and will help it to create a very good
and just Law that it provides
security to the
citizens and for the breed dogs from your beautiful Country.
All FIAPBT &
IADCRO´S Members and the animal rights lovers distributed around the world and
endorse our work, we would be very much thankful to you if you
would can considered our information of this letter and not
allow that the 14 noble breed dogs will be
not banned and not written in the Law like breed
dogs catalogued like Dangerous in your Country and describing in the Law to
the Dangerous dogs but always like
individual one and by his activities of behavior and
not by its breed, size
or mestization, giving
importance to
teach and fomenting to the RESPONSIBLE
owner in the Law and since that moment, the Law about Dangerous Dogs would
begin to be effective for sure. The Law instead of to be called Breed Specific
Legislation (BSL), would pass to denominate Dog Specific Legislation (DSL).
