Hmmm...I have "learned" so much about Norwegian politics from this site today. A dog breed site? Go figure.
Haha, I live in the USA "land of the free" - we have gone from left to right and back again in politics quite a few times in my lifetime. But, I can say it has had little effect on "breed specific law" which exists regardless of who is in power. Even the private sector places it's own "laws" on what breeds can be owned via homeowner's insurance.
I don't blame the politicians completely though - more so, I blame selfish, irresponsible owners for wanting mostly an image, and not realizing what they have taken into their home...and letting their dogs start problems and create a bad image for the breed (unfortunately, these owners seem to favor certain breeds, and wolf crosses)...
