<h2>Officials: No easy fix for pit bulls</h2>

<p>Blackman Township Trustee Chuck DeBruler said his gut reaction to Tuesday’s attack is to ban pit bulls in the township. He said he would never own one and would be nervous if his neighbors did.</p>
<p>DeBruler, however, thinks more laws and regulations surrounding ownership of potentially vicious dogs might protect residents better. Licenses, insurance and education should be a part of owning a pit bull, he said.</p>
<p>“I think they’re dangerous, and I think we have to make people, especially the owners, aware of the responsibility they take on when they own a dog like that,” he said. “There’s been too many people bit and hurt.”</p>
<p>DeBruler expects to talk about dogs at the Sept. 6 Blackman Township meeting.</p>
