Balance is the Key

It feels like it's been ages since I've posted...probably because it has been. I've battled with personal stuff but I also needed to take a break from the work I do. Working with police brutality victims as well as women who have been victimized because they made a responsible, legitimate and non-criminal choice, along with other victims, does begin to wear me down. The last time this happened I ended up in the hospital due to exhaustion. This time I'm trying to keep everything "balanced" or at least a bit more than before.

I've had a dog all of my life until an 'incident' late last year. The hole in my heart I felt needed to be filled so I've adopted another rescue dog and I love her. She definitely has lifted my spirits and helps me maintain a more positive balance when working with such a sad reality. She is a constant good in my life and I am so thankful I found her. I still need to teach her how to walk on a leash/harness, however, so if anyone has any tips for teaching a traumatized dog how to walk without terrifying them...please do drop me a line.

All in all, I plan on writing here of course but also I will be moving all of my blogs over to blogger within the next few days. As for this blog it is going to remain open with any and all subjects open to discuss.

Important Things All Need to Remember About the American Pit Bull

I say forget it because below I will share the proven truth regarding these beautiful dogs. Though I wanted my first rant on here to be about what I plan on ranting about lol I've decided I'll jump in head first with this one because it is one of many important issues, as all across America these poor, innocent dogs are being slaughtered; and for what?!

This post aims to educate and I hope inspire others to help save Pit Bulls from cruelty. Cruelty is sadly something they face on too many fronts. Such as it could be due to mean owners, dog fighting and "training" and/or horrible abuses. Let us not forget for-profit media and how they lie for ratings! How they infect too much of the population because so many sleep.

Below, you will find the real statistics and facts regarding the Pit Bull. It is my hope you will research this topic more, and either share this page or other pages with other people to expand awareness, or do something yourself. Every person matters.

I can say with all honesty, nothing hurts my heart and soul more than seeing an innocent, defenseless or broken spirited soul either being hurt, previously hurt or fed up with living. Lies outrage me, and if you can handle reading the research, facts and statistics below, hopefully you'll be just as out raged as I am. It should go without being said, but, for sanity's sake, one other of my passionate beliefs is standing up for the misjudging, mislabeling, selfish, heartless lies told and believed regarding Pit Bulls. 

Personal experience, research, statistics all show there is such a deep misconception regarding these amazing dogs. Saying these dogs are vicious murderers is a horribly cruel and deceptive way to get the grotesque meter running; and the numbers flooding in. Why? For-Profit media are fueled by more than just corporations; they have demands (ratings) to meet and compete against!

So, being fueled by societies lust for horror stories the media and further fueled by the people who watch for profit media, such as Fox News or CNN, by filling
