50 Super Hero PitBull Stories
In addition to the standard dog ownership responsibilities, we as Pitbull owners have an additional responsibility to be a breed advocates, fighting stereotypes and promoting awareness. It’s not easy when we live in a society that believes , supports and publicizes media stereotypes; we are always faced with strong adversity when supporting the breed. It’s easy to give up hope when the situation seems impossible…….everywhere you turn there is another BSL (breed specific legislation) law popping up due to ignorance and lack of understanding and knowledge.I truly believe we can change perception and open hearts and minds when we promote positivity. I saw how powerful positivity and awareness can be first hand when watching the recent BSL case in Broward (Barbara Sharief vs. Miami residents). The outpour of breed advocates who came armed with FACTS, STATISTICS and TRUTH were able to overturn the request to ban pitbulls in Broward County. The Broward County representative was trying to enforce this ban based on hearsay, and we all came together and won with education.
Part of being an advocate includes showcasing stories of pitbulls that the media doesn’t typically publicize. We all know as pitbull lovers how loyal the breed is. There are literally hundreds of stories of pitbulls saving human lives …yet the media clings to the one story about a dog who happens to resemble a pitbull attacking someone. I created Many Happy Tails to help showcase these stories that paint the pitbull in their true light – a strong, loyal, dedicated and affectionate dog that deserves a change at a long and happy life. By promoting these stories hopefully we all can help change perceptions and convince people to give shelter pitbulls a chance, vs. overlooking them due to breed stereotypes.
