While it would be wonderful to have some lovely, well behaved dogs in attendence, I think that leaving the dogs home is a wonderful idea.
The fighting breeds are supposed to have dog to dog aggression but be absolutely not aggressive towards people. One stressed out dog, with too many people and strange dogs in it's face all day could turn an educational day into a nightmare for all involved. With everything that has been in the press lately, all it would take would be one growl and everyone would be screaming louder to ban these dogs.
Better to go armed with signs, leaflets, and well educated people who can answer questions.
