“Although pit bulls might look ugly, they have a very mild disposition,” DPP Legislator Tsai Yi-yu (蔡易餘) told a news conference in Taipei. DPP Legislator Kao Chia-yu (高嘉瑜) agreed, adding that they are tame and can be very clingy. Democratic Progressive Party Legislator Kao Chia-yu, second left, and other dog lovers attend a news conference in Taipei yesterday to urge the government not to ban pit bulls. Statistics from the council’s national pet registry showed that about 1,000 pit bulls are kept as pets in Taiwan. It is how owners treat and raise their pets that determine their behavior, DPP Legislator Michelle Lin (林楚茵) said.
