Break the cycle...Break stereotypes

About Me

Believe half of what you see and nothing of what you hear. Happy Dogs Come From Happy Homes!!! Adopt Your Next Friend Today!!!I love to have a good time. I love to run, and run, and run. I'm crazy about any toy that squeaks. Although sometimes I confuse my sister kitty for a squeaky toy. Her claws hurt. I love going for rides in the back of my moms truck. I love playing in the river, playing with friends, hanging out with my mom and dad, rides in the car. I love a good game of throw the ball. I love play dates and vacation; I love playing in Upper Bidwell with the other doggies. The pond is a great play spot! Anyone who knows me, knows I'm loving. I get a bit cranky when new people come and visit me in my car or home. But once I meet you and find out you're okay, I'm your bestfriend. I also have a great sense for mean people. I don't like them at all since I came from a bad place before my mommy and daddy took me away.

Music:

What Pit bulls are really like!10. They will steal your spot on the couch while you are up getting a soda.9. They will take the treat you give them and bury it in the back yard like a paranoid crack head hiding their stash.8. They will jump on your bed with muddy feet. Making you do the laundry...again!7. They will lick visitors with an uncontrolled passion only they understand.6. They will cause children to smile.5. They will make you feel horrible for not walking them by looking at you with deep sad eyes.4. They will look at you like you committed a crime against them if you don't let them lick your ice cream bowl.3. They will cause wide spread happiness in large group settings.2. They will crack you up by shaking their butts so hard you think they are going to snap in half.And the number one reason why you can't trust vicious Pit Bulls...1. They will steal your heart like a thief in the night, showing you complete and pure love that only a Pit Bull can show.
