lillim Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 (edited) I am wanting to put together a leaflet that explains BSL with the hope of distributing it to vets, rescue and pet supply places to inform the public about BSL and making it available to other people to distribute. I am wanting to put photos of dogs on the cover, but other than my own I don't have any, so was wondering if any dolers would be kind enough to let me use photos of their dog? I would also like put a smaller version of http://www.pitbullsontheweb.com/petbull/findpit.html in the leaflet and would more than appreciative if owners of any of these breeds could let me use a photo: Boxer Rhodesian Ridgeback bullmastiff American bulldog Staffordshire Bull Terriers American Staffordshire Terriers It would be very clear in the leaflet that none of the photos are of a pitbull and I will provide the leaflet to anyone who lets me use a photo before I finish it so they can see the photo in use.

Great idea the amount of times ill informed people have told us that our bull terrier is a "pitbull" and reacted like he is some sort of dog that will rip their faces of if they even look at him sideways (that in itself is a little silly considering he was only 9 weeks when we were first "informed we didn't know what breed we had") just shows how few people even know what the breeds look like and shows the general ignorance and media frenzy of public mistrust of certain breeds no matter how well they are behaved or trained or how misidentified they are. I am even thinking of taking printed pamphlets on walks to try and help educate the people that have no idea of what breed they are looking at. Good luck with the project Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandgrubber Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Good to see someone taking concrete steps. You might want to re-post this in the In the News forum under the 'what can we do' thread. I started a collection of web links showing pit bull X's who would 'pass' under the standard and posted as http://www.dolforums.com.au/topic/226097-pit-bull-xs-that-could-pass-and/ . Some of the posts in that thread, and my collection of links, may be useful (I realise that you specifically state that you do not want to include APBT descended dogs). Many of the links are to rescue dogs or family pets, and I'd guess the owners or organisations involved would have no problem with someone reproducing photos and information to fight a pernicious and stupid BS law. I was thinking of doing two collages . . .one of dogs who have NO pit bull blood but are endangered by the 'standard'. The other of dogs who have pit bull lines and would not be declared pit bull by the 'standard'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clyde Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I started collating photos for the EDBA many moons ago when this was attempted before. I have so many photos but they're all on my old computer. Will see if I can retrieve them, they will have to be posted in order to receive permission again though.
