Over 44 countries have banned them. That must indicate that there is a good reason. The toxic nature of dogfighting in sa. zero state support for spca and pdsa leaves huge gaps in law enforcement

This dogs must be banned immediately is too much now yeeer

Bruh

Dogs shouldn't be mistreated , they are still God's creation . People should be considerate because all dogs attack

Our community are struggling to take care or tame this poor animal and they don't even feed them or walk them to lower their stress only like to use them as guards so they often snap viciously

It shouldn't even be a debate...🥺

Those against the banning won't understand the pain well up until they experience loss🤞...imagine living in fear over your life....kids and loved ones because your neighbor has this A.N.I.M.A.L .....yhuuu ha ah
