american pit bull female 7 months black with flashy white marks

[treehugger]

moving to a location where it will not be possible to keep her. shes not spayed but i can arrange it for free plus free chipping IF you WISH ( your option) she is not as yet spayed or chipped but i can have this done for you free in august. but shots are all current incl rabies. asking 75.00 as a goodwill gesture ( rehoming fee) or will consider a barter for something of value. shiny coated healthy friendly dog with great disposition. great with kids and cats. UKC registered but papers will not be included at this price.

You cannot keep this poor dog, yet you want someone else to be able to breed her? Just another litter of unadoptable dogs. Our local shelters are overflowing with wonderful dogs already. Pits are way down on the list of adoptable dogs. Sorry if I am "being harsh." I am being realistic. If you bought this dog from a reputable breeder, the breeder will take the dog back. If not, well, you have a dog in need of a home and no hope. IF you are fortunate enough to hear from someone wanting to take your dog, I sincerely hope you research the home. There are dog fighting groups within this county you would not believe. Better to be put down gently than torn apart by fighting dogs.

For those of you who want to send me angry emails telling me how "harsh" I am, save your time. I work in animal rescue and don't need to hear excuses. Unless you want to adopt all these dogs/cats/horses that are subjected to over breeding, you can do nothing to change my mind. Put your $ where your mind is. I do.

Not bashing or judging....just wanted to let you know it is illegal to not have your pit spayed.

Could you provide a link to the source of this information? When I looked it up, I found an article about a similar law in Manteca, Ca, but nothing about Sonoma County.

This is what the law says (I found it here then click on Sonoma County)

Roberta Roberta said "that is incorrect. it is not illegal if your pit is breeding stock. it would be unconstitutional to exterminate an entire breed of animal."
