WHAT IS AN ONTARIO 'PIT BULL'?
In Ontario these days, it's hard to say. It seems as though any short-haired dog can be turned into a 'pit bull' with no effort at all. Of course that's what happens when a law is 100% rigged against a citizen in favour of the government – fairness flies out the window. Every dog is [...]
