A day late....

We are a day late, but wanted to give a shout out to "National Pit Bull Awareness Day".

Recently, my husband and  I spent time at Maricopa Animal Care & Control looking for a new best friend for my Mom.  We were amazed at the high number of pit bulls and pit bull crosses that were there.  We stopped to play with quite a few, and say a few friendly words, and hopefully give them a little love and comfort.  Despite the crowded and less than ideal conditions, we never heard a growl. 

Per the website:  "NPBAD was established to educate and foster positive communications and experiences in the communities in which we and our dogs live, and it is an initiative dedicated to restoring the image of the American Pit Bull Terrier."  

We believe there are no bad dogs.  We are against BSL and the negative image it causes for bully breeds.  After all:
