Raise The Woof
Summary: Dogs are simply amazing. They have become part of our family and an integral part of our society--sometimes in horrifying ways. Many people turn their heads to look away at the bad, but dog rescuers do not. My rescue world is filled with amazing people that I am proud to know. It is also filled with a ton of drama. Time to Raise the Woof and tell the stories that are long overdue.

Not all owner surrenders and supports are bad. Many people judge without knowing the full story. I have had a lot of incidents the past few weeks that spoke volumes about this very subject. We need to remain compassionate with people that do not have the same resources as the rest of us.
What was I thinking going live and answering questions. HAAA! It all turned out well and I hope you enjoy it. A different way to do things!
"We as humans are destroying the breed (pit bulls). These puppies that are born are not programmed to say "I am going to maul a kid." Formerly dubbed the "Pit Boss," Shorty Rossi has strong opinions about a breed that many want society to just accept. He has starred in TV and movies, but has a passion for pit bulls and has a rescue called Shorty's Pit Bull Rescue. He joined us at an event at Speakeasy Customs and Classics and gave us some insight on his unique life.
"Introductions of a dog into their life change their life. A person may not have left their house or they thought blindness was the end of their life. Then we put a dog in their hands." Rod Haneline, Chief Programs and Services Officer of Leader Dogs for the Blind has seen so many success stories with animals and their humans that went through the Leader Dog program. What he does is simply life-changing.

"I want all the animals out there to be healthy. People food is animal food." Marney Prince has done TONS of research on animals and food and now with the grand opening of Side by Side Pet in Lincoln Park, she is hoping to help people and their animals live the healthiest life possible. There is a veterinarian on staff and years of amazing research has put them at the forefront of pet nutrition.
