Beware of Pit Bulls in the Antelope Valley

I was looking through a USA Today a few days ago and noticed that the Antelope Valley was mentioned in it. On the page where it lists all of the states the California update was from Palmdale. It says that there have been over 22 pit bull attacks in the Antelope Valley this year so far. That is up from a reported 6 attacks last year. This has cost the area $245,000 to hire more animal control officials. This is a very costly pet to own it seems and unfortunately you do not have to own one to have your tax dollars spent on these issues. I heard on the radio that some areas have outlawed the animals as pets for these reasons. I will be on the lookout for pit bulls the next time I go for jog.
