I was watching the news last night and there have been 2 "pitbull" attacks in the last 24 hours. It riled up our news stations and they reported 4 attacks in 4 months one leading to the death of a women. The one that happened yesterday was a pitbull got out of it's yard and into an off duty cops yard. The dog went after the officer and his dog and he shot the pitbull. The other one was a pitbull attacked a Pomeranian at a park, the pitbull had gotten out of his yard. The owner picked up his dog and the pitbull bit at the owner to try and get the dog. The most disturbing one was a group of 4 pitbulls attacked a women and killed her in a rural area. They were a pack of dogs running lose and causing problems.
My reaction is, were they really APBT's or mixed breeds. They did not show pictures of the dogs but I immediately contacted the news station and large radio station. I send emails to try and give another perspective on the attacks and educate the public on the the difference between APBT's and the mixes that end up in the news. These sort of stories is what makes BSL happen and they have tried once before and I know they will try it again. I got a reply back from the radio station and I will have a 1 hour segment so we can talk about the breed and training. The radio station is a talk am station and listened to by thousands including myself.
What should I talk about? Normally when I do public speaking I just wing it and I am use to thinking on the spot but I want this to be well though out since I have a limited amount of time. Give me some ideas of topics to go over, I know we have a well educated forum and you guys will think of stuff I did not even think about. When I am ready to air I will post up the website so you guys can listen to the segment. You can listen to old shows or live on the stations website.
