So I couldn't figure out how to donate more than $5 so I've donated in 7 transactions $5 for each puppy, haha Hopefully that's o.k. :) It's under Dale Styner, so let me know if there are any problems.

We treated a lot of rescues and placed them into homes. We had a particular client who lived near a reserve and fed the dogs that wandered stray there. When they left reserve land he would catch them and bring them to us for treatment. One very cold winter morning he brought us a pittie he called Blacky. He had been watching Blacky for four years, trying to get near him, but Blacky was abused by humans and dogs alike, so he wouldn't let the client near him. That morning he had gone out to feed the dogs, and found Blacky laying in the snow, bleeding, and too weak to stand. He had been shot through his back leg, and was covered in buck shot wounds.We couldn't use an anesthetic on him in his weakened condition. So we put a muzzle on him for safety, and I sat with his head in my lap to keep him calm while Dr. Judith treated his wounds. Not once did he complain while we did what could only have been excrutiating. He even wagged his tail and tried to give kisses through the muzzle. As well as having bullet wounds he was swollen and bruised and bore the scars of his past.We decided to keep Blacky, who later became Lucky, then Felix, then Rocket (for his love of running laps around the outside of the clinic), until we could find his perfect home. This meant I got to spend a lot of time with him. Every morning when I entered the kennel, he would burst with excitement, I had to say good morning to Felix (as he was to me) before I could do anything else.What amazed me, was that he never bore a grudge for what he had been through, he became the most loving, enthusiastic, happy dog. I greatly admired his strength, and wished I could take him home myself. He eventually found a home with the groomer who came to our clinic a couple days a week. As far as I know he still gets to visit the clinic, and races around in an expression of appreciation for his new life.Sorry this is a super long comment. But I think that story is worth sharing, I hope you agree!

They are loving, innocent and loyal and playful. It is only until this breed gets into the WRONG hands that they are FORCED to be vicious. It is the human who is the vicious one NOT the Pitbull. Please stop the ban on the Pitbull breed, it is unfair and unjust. The Pitbull breed is like any other breed when born. They are loving, innocent and loyal and playful.
