My Pit Bull is Family "Pack Walk"

My Pit Bull is Family is an anti BSL organization based in Minneapolis, MN that maintains the country's largest database of "Pit Bull" friendly housing - They do community awareness and advocacy regularly and one of those events is a monthly pack walk. About 20 or so Pit Bulls and their families' walk in a very highly trafficked, public place for about an hour to show off our breed ambassadors. Anyway, here are some pics:

Simone, Yogi and I at April's walk

And just yesterday at the May pack walk, Lillie came to show her solidarity to the cause ;-)

Great photos and great cause. I actually have one of their stickers on my tablet. We take our tablets in the exam room with clients, and the stickers have opened up a few very good conversations. I also submitted my current realty company to their housing database. Too bad I'm too far away to participate in the walk - looks like fun! And Mazey is a total rockstar. :)

Love it! I have a bumper sticker, too. They are also just beginning to put together a new data base of insurance companies/agents that don't discriminate as well. I guess people were running into problems when they are told to go to large companies because they sometimes run into individual agents who won't insure homes with specific breeds.

Awesome, good stuff! We have our own local bully breed bunch too with regularly scheduled group walks

Pack walks are awesome!!! I love those pics!
It was so funny because this walk took us on more of a nature trail with some rock formations and some paths that were a bit more rugged. Simone kept wanting to go off the main trail to climb the rocks and downed trees and stuff... and so did Yogi lol! Simone finally said "this just makes me want to climb SO BAD!" They are peas in a pod for sure!

Parkour training will do that to you. :) Rhaegar is the same way now.
