BSL=Breed Specific Legislation
Please Don't Take My Doggy Away
This is my poem, l have been fighting BSL in Queensland for the last 12 months. This poem is based on my family, and families that have left the state because of their beloved dogs.
I decided to leave Albury Town , packed up the kids and our dog named Sam.We are on our way to Queensland bound to start a new life with the kids and our doggy Sam.
We arrived all excited to our new home on a little town, but not for long as the Councils came around.He said to me Mrs you have 21 days and your dog has to leave, if not your dog will be seized. I said to him clarify this please, "what do you mean my dog will be seized"
He said lady your dogs a pit bull and he is not welcome here, the Queensland Government has banned them, their dangerous you see.The children where frightened they called Sam near, they ran out the back and hid in fear.
Oh please , oh please don't take our doggy away, he has done no wrong he is a beautiful pit bull can't you see , he plays and loves us unconditionally.Oh why, oh why, would you do this to us, he is just a dog and has so much love.
I sat and l cried with the kids, not knowing what to do, no money in our pockets no where to go."l had to think quickly stay strong for the kids" Sam is apart of our family and l'll not give in.
The children where regressing , suffering because of this.
"LIFE IN QUEENSLAND WAS JUST THE PITS"
I tried and l tried to stop this cruel law, but in the end we where just ignored.The Governments and Councils did not care."Get out of our state we don't want your dog here"
Oh please, oh please don't take our doggy away, he has done no wrong, his a beautiful pit bull cant you see, he plays and loves us unconditionally.
Oh why , oh why would you do this to us, he is just a dog and has so much love.
We packed up the car, left our belongings behind just to save Sam, and keep him alive. We had to go, where run out of town, all because of breed , they can stick their town.
So back home we headed to Albury Town , where we are respected and our beautiful pit bull Sam.
So the moral to this story is don't move to Queensland, stay where you are , save your pitty's life, from the hands of this cruel law.

I am a professional
counsellor unable to work due to surgery pending, but for the last 12 months
l have met every person on the Gold Coast and Brisbane that has suffered this
cruel and heinous crime. I have also counselled many of them and their children,
many families are now on anti-depressants because of this cruel law. Brax
alias Sam is only 3, 4 in April and has just been diagnosed with leukaemia,
so at the moment we are going through a trying time again, with Brax and his
chemo. I am also a member of the EDBA here in Aussie.
Thank you once again for your comments on my poem, it is true we are just ignored by the governments and councils, so l thought l would put my words into a poem and spread it around, oh by the way this poem has been entered in the country and western Tammworth Music Festival and it will be drawn at the end of the year, check it out on: countryragepage/tammwoth poetry.
