The city's municipal code says:
"(4) A person may temporarily transport into and hold in the city a pit bull only for the purpose of showing such pit bull in a place of
public exhibition, contest or show sponsored by a dog club association or similar organization. However, the sponsor of the
exhibition, contest, or show must receive written permission from the manager, must obtain any other permits or licenses required
by city ordinance, and must provide protective measures adequate to prevent pit bulls from escaping or injuring the public. The
person who transports and holds a pit bull for showing shall, at all times when the pit bull is being transported within the city to and
from the place of exhibition, contest, or show, keep the pit bull confined in a "secure temporary enclosure" as defined in
subdivision (b)(3)."
So if you do travel to Denver city to a dog show, you have to have the dog in a "secure temporary enclosure" and hope the dog show has all necessary permits from the city to have "pit bulls" at the exhibition. Otherwise, transporting of "pit bulls" is not allowed in Denver:
"(a) It shall be unlawful for any person to own, possess, keep, exercise control over, maintain, harbor, transport, or sell within the
city any pit bull."
