Are pit bulls banned in Washington dc?

Answer 1

Probably not. You can train them so I highly doubt it. But if you have children or they live near you, and you want to keep your house............. Don't get one.

Pitbulls, AmStaffs, and Bulldogs are actually very good with children of all ages and sizes. They are truly a family dog, much more so than many other terrier breeds, so that answer was a bit misleading.

Homeowners insurance or renting can be a bit trickier....many landlords will meet & greet your dog though. As far as illegal, of course not!

Answer 2

Your local authorities, the dog pound, or other shelters, would be able to officially advise you, however, I sure hope they are not. I am moving to Gig Harbor, and all my sources have indicated that they are not.......Chuck.

Answer 4

There is no ban there but a Breed-Specific Ordinance might come up soon.
