(why do i keep losing my sign-in status so that everytime I post a reply, I have to log in a second time and lose my original message!!!

Anyway, I would like to please ask anyone out there who has a larger breed (you know, the scarry, dangerous kinds over 20 kilos and 44cm with teeth, no fangs) if they would mind sharing any experiences directly related to this new BSL stuff going on. I know different cantons have different laws, and in fact the rest of the world is not far behind in drafting this BSL nonsense. All countries seem to be going along with this discrimination, as you can see on the Dane & Grays link above. Its unbelievable what this world is getting itself into now.

I am not sure now if my resist to relocate to Switzerland is no longer necessary given that Ireland is now the new number one in "the worst yet" category when it comes to BSL...So, I am scratching my head about all of this and am not sure if I will be REALLY subjecting my dog to risk of being put down in Switzerland if he didnt pass that temperament test. I cannot read German, so I am not able to understand the criteria of this test, and therefore cannot make a proper evaluation for my dog. DOes anyone know if your dog fails the test, do you have to surrender him right then and there to the authorities, or do they give you a chance to do it again, or what is this procedure.

Thank you in advance to anyone who may be able to shed some more light on this.

Kindest regards
