100 Mile Walk for Pitbulls

http://www.teampitafull.org/100MileWalk.html

100 Mile Walk for Pit Bulls is to raise awareness of the true American Pit Bull Terrier, American Staffordshire Terrier, and The Staffordshire Bull Terrier… their character and nature as a breed and as a family pet, to debunk the urban legend of a what a Pit Bull is and what it is not, to demonstrate the loyalty, obedience, humor and love that is Pit Bull, to promote responsible ownership of Pit Bulls and ALL animals, and to gain the community’s support in over-turning local breed specific laws in Denver, CO that directly discriminate against these breeds based on miss-information.

Great article “10 Common Misconceptions About Pit Bulls”

For those of you that like to research before you decide, a great article to read: “http://www.dogster.com/dog-breeds/pitbulls

Also I wanted to point out, “Pitbulls are like other dogs yet they’re also unique. Their gameness, focus, desire to please and boundless energy can be seen as either productive or unproductive traits. The trick is to utilize these characteristics in focused play and work, such as agility, weight pulling, rescue work or nose work.”

If you are looking for a great agility dog you might want to consider a Pitbull! One of our dogs that was recently adopted has gone onto agility training. We hear Gypsy Rose is doing great at it! And cant wait to hear more about her adventures.
