Denmark is considering a new law that would ban aggressive breeds, such as pit bulls and mastiffs, but an MP has gone one step further and suggested that all cross-breeds should be killed. An estimated 40,000 mongrels are born in Denmark each year and a general cull would sentence to death hundreds of thousands of animals.
But Flemming Moller, from the governing Liberal Party, is steadfast in his calls for a mass slaughter. "We will surely see lots of press photos of sweet little puppies being put down but we must be determined," he told the Economist

This Moller guy should have the snot kicked out of him, what an evil piece of sh-t.

PETA Assholes.Just yesterday watched Ceasar Milan work with a very aggressive Pit successfully. The humans were the idiots,not the dog. My JRTs can be just as aggressive as a Pit,they are just smaller. Humans fuck everything up. And I still hate Vick................

This is just politics at the lowest level guys. The politicians here just finished their summerbreak, but during that break lightweight issues get frontpage. Issues like this contaminates the political debate during summer every year, unfortunatly now that this silly shit debate is around it needs to be finished.

Take care of all living

dogs use to be for work, now they have become our "pet". I think 95% of people are not even qualified to own a dog, there lack of knowledge and a society created on " I want that now" makes people not realize how much work a dog really is..

do you have 5K sitting around in case of a big surgery?
do you have extra monthly money in case a problem develops and have to get meds every month?
do you work at home or work for 8 hours?
does your dogs breed get enough exercise every day?
do you know dog behavior?
do you know how to socialize a dog?
do you even know your breeds history?
.. ....

to want to stop mix breed is a fine thing, mix breeds come from lack of respect / knowledge / care / want of money.. to accomplish that by killing them is not fine. But I believe if you have to have a license to drive, why not have a license to own a dog, breed a dog.. to get a license for a dog will stop 95% of people from getting a dog, and the ones who get a license will really want / have the knowledge / can support for a dog.

I would estimate 95% of people don't even have money for top quality dog food ( usually 50-60 for a 40 pound bag ). this is similar to people popping out kids and knowing nothing about kids, and even lacking the funds to support a kid. well can't stop stupid people..

but getting back to the original post, the problems lie's in people, not dog

Yup unfortunately this is true....BUT..its just a proposal. During the summer a disturbing number of incidents involving these "fighting breeds" has led to the government being forced to change the laws. By forced i mean that the media stirred up the whole thing to astronomic proportions, thus causing a frenzy among the general citizens. Ppl are demanding that action i now taken. I do believe though, that that wont mean that we need to fear that our dogs will be put down...i think it will end up with a number of breeds being banned, and that existing individuals might face sterilization. Furthermore all dogs not registered are subject to confiscation and will probably be put down in that case. It will be an attempt to extinguish these breeds from Denmark slowly as they think that they can stop ppl from breeding these dogs this way. It will only make problems worse!!!!
Heres my boys Lenny and Kalle....i swear that no one will touch these dogs, be it for castration or anything else!!

Kill all mongrels so that the purebreds can continue being overbred, inbred and fucked up..........


Great plan.....that will make for a really healthy canine population.....if you consider hip dysplasia and the like healthy.

Wanting to ban mixed breed dogs is the most ignorant thing I can think of at the moment. No better dog than a mut and everyone knows it. "Breeds" have too many problems....adopt a mut, save a life. "Breeding" dogs takes the chance of all the muts in shelters being adopted away. "Breeding" dogs is irresponsible about 90% of the time.

I'm not against pure bred dogs, just over-breeding them...dog and cat population in the States is out of control. My house is a good example of rescued animals.

I don't know who pisses me off more... the ignorant people who think that an entire breed should be banned, the ignorant people who buy a working dog without being able to properly care for it, or the ignorant backyard breeders who do it to make a quick buck and could care less about the breed standard...

Haven't we learned what prohibition does to black markets? Congratulations, a pit bull is now worth 5 thousand dollars!!! Imagine the crime and bullshit that will follow...

The back yard breeders drive me mad they shouldn't be allowed to keep dogs.
Boxers became very popular over here years ago and every idiot with a bitch was churning out pups like there was no tomorrow with no regard for breed standards or health issues,
Now there are boxers of every shape and size knocking about.

Hi Habeeb,
You make some very good points here. Including your list of things required to be a responsible dog owner. Important points indeed.
However you lost me at mixed breeds.You obviously have never owned a mutt and possibly never rescued a dog as well.They are often mixed breeds.
In my opinion there are more irresponsible breeders out there then there are dog owners.$$$ minded individuals that could care less about bettering the breed.They care only about getting their bitch covered for the next litter.
Just my opinion..peace

This is nothing less than a canine holocaust. If they go through with this, I can't imagine people making it easy for them. Dogs are family members after all, and most people would fight to the death to protect their family.
