@Aidan Mulligan In addition to pit bulls because they might be dangerous, I ban short people because they sometimes fail to clean the tops of the cupboards, tall people because they sometimes don’t notice the dirty floors, fat people because they can be hard on the carpets, and skinny people because, well, I’ve put on a few pounds lately and I just don’t want that kind of thing around me.Kevin (previous owner of two Rottweiler rescues, current owner of rott/pit mix rescue).
