When the preliminary draft of the new Animal Protection and Welfare legislation was launched in Spain, one of the rumors that spread was the eradication of the canine breeds known as “ppp” (potentially dangerous dogs).
The approval of this code, which dates from September 9 of this year, continues to consider certain breeds and their crosses a “possible danger”, so nothing to change in this field with the new law in hand.
The Bullmastiff, Dobermann, Argentine Dogo, Dogue de Bordeaux, Fila Brasileiro, Neapolitan Mastiff, Pit Bull, Perro de Presa Canario, Rottweiler, American Staffordshire Terrier and Japanese Tosa fall into this classification. If you’re thinking of adopting a pit bull and don’t know where to start, these tips may help.
It is necessary to have a license
As we read in the BOE, to adopt them it is necessary to follow “the legal regime for the possession of potentially dangerous animals contemplated in Law 50/1999, of December 23”.
In short, possess “an administrative license, which will be granted by the City Council of the applicant’s municipality of residence, or, with prior proof in this City Council, by the City Council in which the trade or training activity is carried out.”
Be of legal age and not be unable to provide the necessary care to the animal, have a certificate of psychological aptitude and having the accreditation of having formalized civil liability insurance for damages to third parties that may be caused by their animals, are some of the requirements requested to have said license. It should be remembered that to be in public places, “all dogs will be on a leash and provided with the corresponding identification.”
Once we have this license in hand, we can plant the idea of adopting one of the dogs that appear as “ppp” according to the state.
Pit bull and kids, good mix
The guardian and respectful character of this dog makes it an option to live with little ones around it. As explained in AnimalWised, “a dog especially affectionate and that, despite being strong and active, he is perfectly aware of his physical strength. He usually gets along very well with small children and babies, whom he will care for and protect.”
Experts make a key point, “interactions should always be supervised by parents.” Thus, we will teach both to behave in a calm and affable way.
If you want to know more breeds of dogs to have children at home, the Golden Retriever or the Labrador are in this list.
You don’t need a big house, but you do need company and long walks.
Being such an energetic dog, they need to channel their energy with intense walks and physical exercise. They adapt to both houses and apartments, we read in Almanimal, and it is essential to go outside together three times a day.
A correct education and dedication
Offering a good education and affection is basic, point to Almanimal. Thus, he is meant to be very respectful and polite. In the case of detecting any anomaly, visit a veterinarian or a canine educator.
