Hey guys, I got you!

So what the beginning of this passage does is equate pit bulls to seeing eye dogs and police dogs. It is a job classification, no different than teacher or waiter except for animals.

I hope that helped, if you have further questions please don't hesitate to ask!

Thanks,

Jordan
