Club name Nuthin but "PITBULL LOVE"![]() About this club My name is Sherry and I live in Richmond, Virginia. I am a pitbull lover through and through. I have been involved in Animal Rescue for several years. I have seen the “side” that most people do not see. I’ve seen the abused, neglected, starved pitbulls who didn’t ask for the life that they were dealt. I’ve knelt beside an innocent pitbull who was being euthanized because “this shelter does not adopt out pitbulls”. I tell him that I am sorry that society has caused this terrible tragedy. I cry for him, I try to help him feel safe (if just for that one minute before he crosses the bridge). This breed is by far one of the most misunderstood and judged breed as well as the most abused and fought breed. I shared my heart with a Pitbull named Rayne. It was through his life that I learned that it´s not the pitbulls that the world needs to fear... I started this group (with my friend Mary Elms) to hopefully bring some of my knowledge and share some of my experiences that I have had and if it changes just ONE persons mind...If it makes just one person think about going to their local shelter and giving a pitbull a chance...then I feel that I am doing what I can to help save this breed.

Hope that is helpful to you! and thank you for all your support. __________________________________________________________________________________________ It´s Pit Bull Awareness Day on October 25th 2008......in State´s right across America,people and lovers of this dog and their type´s are getting together to promote the breed in a strong & positive light. I have decided to draw attention to this well needed day to those who may not know nor of heard of it outside of the USA....particularly here in the UK !!. Please do something positive for the PB today..sign as many petitions as you can to help those dogs in need under the DDA and BSL generally....wear a PB t-shirt and/or badge to draw attention to them when you´re walking down the street or taking your children to school.....adopt a PB in a PB Rescue Centre in the US...hold a coffee morning or bric n brac sale to raise money for those who campaign and work endlessly for so many innocent dogs taken under the DDA....such as the UK´s DeedNotBreed and the The Endangered Dogs Association......but above all,whatever you choose to do on PB Awareness Day...is (IF you don´t already that is ??)...learn to love-a-bull today and forever more.....and REMEMBER..their are NO such things as BAD DOGS..it´s BAD BREEDERS & OWNERS. Thank you. __________________________________________________________________________________________ I am also considering,getting an avater made up,which I will upload as a picture on to this Group and ask that all PB group members and enthusiast´s..for that one day only (the 25th Oct),change their profile piccie and use the new logo instead. That way anything you post that day,will have your message pasted around the site.....I know that once that member goes back to their original profile picture,the next day,that so will all the post´s pictures too..but at least for the main day,we will be spreading the PB´s plight. What do you think ???. 07 Sep 2008 12:06 Hi mary you no that that the pit bull awareness day is coming up, what can we do to help to show people that these dogs are pets not fighting machines? I feel very strongly about this so if you can suggest anything I can do to help I will do so. I want everyone to know even tho they have banned this breed in this country that they are pets, dogs, animals, and that they are loving and relieable like any other breed of dog many thanks Suex | Club Members Our Pictures |
