Kissed by a Pit

http://www.inquisitr.com/1488443/kissed-by-a-pit-bull-challenge-will-you-take-it/



“Today we’re starting our Kissed by a Pit Challenge to change the perception of pit bulls,” said Alfred C. Martino of Dog Park Publishing the day the challenge began. “Dog Park Publishing will donate $5 of every order through the end of the month to local shelters. We challenge you to be kissed by a pit, and also donate $5 to your local rescue or shelter.”

Although the challenge is meant to shine a bright light on the misunderstood pit bull breeds, the actual requirement of the challenge serves as a beacon of hope to all animals. The Kissed by a Pit challenge doesn’t require participants to donate their $5 to a pit bull rescue, only to the rescue or shelter of their choice. That means breeds of all shapes and sizes are benefiting from the pit bull kisses.

“This campaign creates positive awareness for pit bulls and financial support for those groups helping all types of animals in need,” said Martino. “We are grateful to the wonderful pit bull owners across the world who are participating and helping to change false impressions about these great animals. The vast majority of pit bull related incidents can be directly linked to human cruelty, negligence or stupidity. Conscientious pit bull owners know that their dogs are wonderful pets who should not be subject to breed specific legislation, media misrepresentation or the false labeling as dangerous.”

i'm having trouble posting my picture of my pit bull kiss, but I did donate money to this place,

they try to keep dogs out of high kill shelters which is great.
if you think what I believe is stupid, bizarre, ridiculous or outrageous.....it's ok, I think I had a brain tumor when I wrote that.

    Tia Torres is my heroine. I would encourage those with reservations about this breed to watch Pit Bulls and Parolees. Can't say how many times I've been brought to tears by the abuse and deplorable conditions these animals have endured, but also by how incredibly resilient, loving and loyal they are. Absolutely beautiful and intelligent.

    (and my gosh, the puppies!^^^^)

    Hope you can figure out how to post your pic, verona...and thank you for shining a light on this. Calling it a worthy cause is an understatement.
