What is BSL? It is breed specific legislation.
What is breed specific legislation? Laws passed at the county, city, or town level that prohibits the ownership of any dog that resembles a pit bull and in some areas rottweilers, German shepherds, and mastiff lines of dogs are prohibited too.
How will they know my dog is a pit bull since pit bull is not a breed of dog? The scary answer to this question is it is up to the police department and/or animal control to make this decision. Please see if
you can identify the pit bull by linking to this website and picking out the pit.
Mutts -n- Stuff is against Breed Specific Legislation of any kind. We believe that BSL is shortsighted, ineffective, and morally wrong.
You can find more information at the following websites:

Below is a list of counties, cities, and towns the Metro St. Louis area and their current laws regarding BSL. We will also note any area that is currently looking to pass BSL so we can voice our opinions respectfully to the legislators in that area.
