Beyond the Myth Canada Premiere, Toronto Ontario

Beyond the Myth Canada Premiere of Beyond the Myth Sponsored by Soft-Pull Leashes ad the Dog Legislation Council of Canada (DLCC)

Beyond the Myth is a film about dog breeds commonly referred to as"pit bulls" and those who love these breeds. Viewers are taken on a journey to four
U.S. cities where Breed Specific Legislation focusing on "pit bulls" has profoundly
impacted people and animals: Denver, Miami, Cincinnati, and San Francisco.

The documentary intelligently explores the contributing factors behind the public's generalized fear of
"pit bulls", and examines the conflict existing between advocates and opponents of breed
discriminatory laws, commonly referred to as breed bans. It investigates the myths associated
with these breeds, challenges the idea that they are inherently vicious, presents eye-opening
research regarding the media's role in influencing people's opinion on dog attacks.

Both before and after the film you may mingle in the lobby with members from both organizations, purchase merchandise and pick up informational materials Please plan to arrive early (doors open at 6pm) as we are expecting a large, possibly sold out, crowd.
