WASHINGTON, Nov. 17 (UPI) -- Country singer Willie Nelson says Ohio's 24-year-old law declaring the "pit bull" to be a "vicious" dog is an "archaic breed‐discriminatory law."
Nelson, an ambassador for the Best Friends Animal Society, made the remarks in an e-mail to a state Senate committee urging passage of House Bill 14, which would do away with the breed-specific language and make other changes to dog enforcement laws, The (Toledo) Blade reported Thursday.
