They were when I lived there in 2013 with my own pitbull, which was acquired due to a former asshole roommate abandoning him with me.
He was super well trained luckily and I never ever brought him anywhere off a leash, even a dog park. It was all the unleashed microdick dogs I had to worry about, which their owners would constantly walk unleashed because “she’s ok. She’s no threat”
To which I would answer, “but you’re going to get my dog killed for killing it mistaking it for a toy. Please don’t let your dog run up on my dog.”
Anyway yea I’m pretty sure they’re still illegal, it wasn’t really enforced, but it could be if they wanted to.
I liked in sailboat bend area Fort Lauderdale with him for a bit as well and occasionally shitheads from sistrunk would come try my door knob. Ajax shut that shit right the fuck down, it was great.
I’d hear the scrape of his paws on the concrete running and then the crash of his face into the glass door followed by barking from hell and door people would quick-bounce. I did enjoy that
