Since I've been reporting in Louisiana, I've done a number of stories revolving around either dangerous or unwanted animals. Some of them have been exciting (pets matched up with owners) others devastating (doing a story on the high number of animals euthanized in shelters and stumbling upon a group of dogs being put down). I'm a big animal lover and that story on euthanizing is something I'll never forget --- though I wish I could.
Today's story focused around new laws for vicious dogs. I think it's an issue that seems important not just for those who have children or who worry about being attacked. It also applies to those who love animals. Perhaps there wouldn't be so many animals euthanized (dozens a day just in one parish) and animals without a home if there were more rules to keep the animals responsibly.
