Together We'll Change The Stigma
We had the good fortune to participate in a fun project this Fall to help raise money for shelter dogs in need and to help break down the negative stereotypes that surround bully breeds in a very fun way. As a business we are intensely passionate about dog rescue, but a big motivator that drives our ardor is helping to soften the image that pit bull-type dogs carry on their shoulders. Through no fault of their own, they are forced to carry the burden of a bad-reputation; labeled as dangerous and aggressive because of ignorance and media-driven, fear mongering. These sweet, overgrown pups are now left to fight an uphill battle that humanity has created for them.
When My Positive Pitty asked us to be a part of their fundraising efforts, in which they put together a 2020 calendar full of gorgeous bully breeds, we jumped at the opportunity. We wanted to personally thank all of you who stepped forward to support our efforts by purchasing a calendar. It truly has meant so much to us. Because we did sell out, there might be several of you who didn’t get a chance to get your hands on one. And because every single photo in this calendar is beyond adorable… we thought we’d share them here with all of you to see.
This group of bullies has become family to us. Each one is wildly passionate in their efforts to spread pitty positivity and we encourage you all to not only follow, My Positive Pitty, but each one of these precious souls.
