0014-QU-BSL-pitbull-awareness-n-raffle-winnersThe Q: How can we stop breed specific discrimination?

This Q&U turned a little into a Q&ME, so if you guys don’t want me to ramble on about Gracie Lou in the future, then you gotta gimme more of you! Well I shared our story about finding a house to rent with a pit bull (that’s her cutie patootie butt all dressed up for Halloween or should I say Howloween?).

A few of you left your ideas about what we can do and then it was time for the much anticipated raffle!! Winners are listed below.

Thanks to Candice for your ideas and to Carol for your photo submission (I added a few more of Luna here too)!
