For the “that sounds like a GREAT idea!” file:
The Animal Rescue League of Tidewater is suing to force Loudoun County to abandon its prohibition on the adoption of pit bulls brought to the animal shelter.
The lawsuit, which includes a request for an injunction to immediately block any other pit bulls from being euthanized, is set for a Loudoun County Circuit Court hearing next Monday.
The litigation was filed by Ron Litz and the Animal Rescue of Tidewater. They allege that county’s policy forbidding the adoption of pit bull and pit bull mix breeds violates sate law.
