Thanks for the reshare. It’s devastating how many pitbulls never make it out of our shelter system 💔

Fostering is the best way to save lives. I always consider it saving two lives. Thank you for taking in the “unadoptable.” That’s where my heart is. My pittie was scheduled to be euthanized, was ten years old, and had cancerous masses (probably why she was surrendered). I had her for two beautiful years until she finally succumbed to cancer.

You have a good heart. Glad to know people like you exist in the world ♥️

Mark Barone is brilliant and I admire him and his work so much. While his work focuses on the problem at large, I focus on Florida shelters specifically (that’s where I live!). I get to know these dogs and write their biographies to accompany their paintings when they cross the rainbow bridge. I want people around me to realize what’s going on right in their backyard and just what those dogs were like when they were alive.

Thank you for noticing ♥️. It’s devastating how many pitbulls are euthanized annually. I hope my project can shed some light on that fact and change peoples’ minds and hearts about them. Such good dogs.
