I'm going to join in with the opinion that this statement is nuts.
Dogs are not people. No matter how much you love your dogs, they are not people and they do NOT have the same rights as people.
I'm not an animal person, I'll admit that. Big dogs do scare me, and i'm not a fan of them or visiting people with them. I don't know how I feel about laws being made to make it illegal to own certain breeds. I do support muzzle laws.
But there are laws regarding people keeping other animals at pets- for instance, aren't ferrets illegal in some states? I'm not familiar with animal laws, so I could be wrong.
