Well, it has been a long time since either I or my wife has had a dog. We have been discussing it and putting it off for at least a couple years. We had discussed getting an English Mastiff, but decided it would be better if we would rescue whatever canine we happened to find a connection with. We figured we would go to the local shelter, but then the Dog-a-thon fundraiser for the Humane Society came up on the calendar.
We went with our friends who already have a dog. The attendance at the event was great. There were dogs and people everywhere. Little dogs, big dogs, young and old. While checking out the vendor booths, we came upon some dogs wearing capes that said “Adopt Me” and “I’m a B.E.D.R. Dog”. I noticed a couple really cute brindle pups. We hung out, petting them and rubbing their bellies. They were really soaking up the attention from everyone. Then we realized the B.E.D.R. stood for Bullseye Dog Rescue, a group that specializes in Pit Bulls and other bully breeds. All of these adorable dogs were Pit Bulls!
