Goals:
Our biggest concern is the unnecessary killing by animal facilities of bully breeds, as well as, all homeless dog breeds because of a lack of space. A growing concern of ours is the surrendering of family pets to kill facilities and the abandonment of pets. Before choosing to do either, consider the following...
* this is a family member
* this is a friend
* they have unconditional love
* they only want to please
* they depend on you
* you are ultimately killing them
Animal overpopulation throughout the U.S. could be drastically reduced by turning irresponsible owners into responsible owners or by holding those bad owners accountable for their actions. Backyard breeding must stop. Batch breeding must stop. Only qualified individuals should oversee and set breeding standards to avoid in-breeding and other unfortunate circumstances. Vision:
Pit pride will prevail against all of those owners who abuse their pits (in one way or another) and will lead to positive pit press, again. We, the true dog lovers, must expose the criminal riff-raff who continue to participate in illegal and irresponsible acts and those who mis-handle and mis-treat our precious pits. There are many organizations dedicated to restoring the pit bull image, we are one example. Although pit bulls have advocates everywhere, one negative event will stand out more in society's mind, requiring at least ten positive events to reverse the damage. It is an uphill struggle and we all have pledged our heart and soul for our love of the American Staffordshire Terrier and the American Pit Bull Terrier. If you are unable to adopt a pit, please consider fostering a pit, or, at the very least, sponsor or make a donation to support a pit or pits.
