Description:

Lori begins the show by discussing the various laws and regulations which restrict ownership of certain dog breeds, collectively known as breed specific legislation (BSL). Many cities and municipalities have enacted such restrictions, believing they will decrease dog bites and promote public safety, or out of misplaced fear. Lori explains the various ways such regulations are flawed, even though they may be well intentioned. More and more people and their elected official are learning why BSL is not effective. Consequently, many such regulations are being reversed, being replaced by ones that put the burden on the dog owners to keep their pets under control.

“I am banned in Denver.”

To conclude the show, Peter’s guest is Brian Fitzburgh, a Los Angeles based real estate agent who heads up Real Estate Agents to the Rescue (ReRescue.org). This non-profit organization spreads the positive message about the value of being a foster parent to animals in need. Since real estate agents are accomplished networkers, there are many opportunities to spread the message on the value of fostering.
