Here's the thing..

No, we don't know the dog's temperament. No, the DAC does not do temperament testing on the dogs it adopts out. The other local AC's don't temperament test, either. And they do adopt out bully breeds. So, the DAC could adopt out a dog of another powerful breed (Chow, GSD, Rottie, Dobe, and a few others come to mind) that is of poor temperament and goes on to attack people. But they can't adopt out a Pit Bull?

It's not about the dog or the dogs temperament. It's about being unbiased and fair. Any of the dogs in the hundreds of AC's in the state can be unsound and HA, but they aren't getting put down arbitrarily due to breed.
