Interesting thought…
May the day come soon when all dogs are allowed to live to feel the warmth of Christmas.
Hug your furry family members just a little extra today, in honor of those that won’t.

Dearest Kim, good morning, and I’m the first! That’s a first! LOL! This was so heart wrenching, the tears are welled up in the corners of my eyes. We live in cruel times, due to owners who have abused this type of dog, it has through the media created a unjust fear. Go after those that misuse and mistreat these poor God given creatures. I have had first hand experience at this. A neighbor had one of these “pit bulls” and did not care for it properly, the poor dog turned against him, and the police took the dog away and had him put down. But I’ve also seen good owners with this type and they were very sweet dogs. Great entry. Thanks for sharing. Later……
Dear Kim and CindyLu,
Wow, after our good buddy, the Manic Chef’s thoughtful and articulate comment, there’s not much more to add.
I know that certain breeds, such as Pit Bulls, and here, notably the Staffordshire Bull Terrier and Rottweilers, have been stigmatised as dangerous breeds. Yet, invariably, it’s the human they live with that has caused some of them to be out of control. I know, that under the right conditions, these dogs are wonderful loving dogs.
Thanks for this interesting video. In peace and gratitude, your way, Gary
Wow. This brought me to tears. I live in hope the someday we will learn that judging anyone by the color of their skin, or the build of their body, is wrong. BSL needs to be stopped.
“Petey was a Pit Bull.”
The Manic Chef – Gary is right, you articulated perfectly the reality of these dogs. The unfairness is truly inhuman, we should be ashamed of ourselves. Those tears in your eyes are the signal to the world that you are a caring, understanding person. I’m proud to know you! And…really impressed you got here first! LOL Take care – as always, peaceful paws to you 🙂
Dearest Gary, you too understand that it is the humans behind the dog, and not the dog itself, that has led to the misperception of its true nature. Pitties are awesome dogs, as you say – unfairly stigmatized. Thanks for stopping by, hope you’re doing well! High-Paws from CindyLu to Penny!
Oh, Leslie – me too. We’ll know we’re on the right path once those things are righted! You, for one, are doing much to make life better for our animals. Thank you for all your efforts!
