“DANGEROUS DOG” CONTROL LEGISLATION
The American Kennel Club® supports reasonable, enforceable, non-discriminatory laws to govern
the ownership of dogs. The AKC® believes that dog owners should be responsible for their dogs.
We support laws that: establish a fair process by which specific dogs are identified as “dangerous”
based on stated, measurable actions; impose appropriate penalties on irresponsible owners; and
establish a well-defined method for dealing with dogs proven to be dangerous. We believe that, if
necessary, dogs proven to be “dangerous” may need to be humanely destroyed. The American
Kennel Club strongly opposes any legislation that determines a dog to be “dangerous” based on
specific breeds or phenotypic classes of dogs.

I agree with this stand. Individual actions based on a measurable standard. This is true justice. Judging dogs by “breedisms” is just as wrong as racism in humans.

CANINE POPULATION ISSUES
AKC® commends experienced breed enthusiasts who are educating the public and other breeders
about the need for long term commitments and responsibilities. We encourage them to help new
owners address issues that could result in the relinquishment of pets. National research
organizations have reported that the majority of unwanted dogs in the United States come from
owners who are unable or unwilling to train, socialize, and care for their dog. The American
Kennel Club® also encourages pet owners to consider spaying or neutering their dogs at an
appropriate age if they do not want to participate in AKC conformation events or engage in
responsible breeding programs.
The American Kennel Club further supports programs dedicated to teaching the pet-buying public
how to find a responsible breeder and how to make well-informed decisions when buying a dog
rather than buying on impulse. Such programs help to ensure that pet purchasers find a puppy or
dog that is a good match for their lifestyle, at an appropriate time in their lives, thereby increasing
the likelihood that the animal will stay with the owner for its entire life. The AKC encourages
owners and potential dog owners to visit our website at www.akc.org to locate AKC Parent Clubs
which are the national organizations that represent breeds recognized by the AKC.
The American Kennel Club believes euthanasia should be employed only as a last resort when all
reasonable efforts to place adoptable dogs have failed. At the same time, AKC recognizes that not
all dogs are adoptable due to temperament and health issues
