This is Olive, the last doggie I fostered this summer before I left L.A. She was abused and starving when she was rescued by Barks of Love. She was totally scared of men at first, but after being loved and trained, she was adopted by a couple who also had a big brother doggie for her.
Pibbles are my favorite kind of dog, ever since my first foster son Peanut Butter. I like them because they're super cuddly and people-oriented.
Please PLEASE spay and neuter your dogs.
Pitties get put down at the shelter at the highest rate because they're are so many of them.
And once and for all, for all my Asian friends who keep asking: pit bulls are NOT dangerous. Bad humans and bad owners are dangerous.
Michael Vick and other dog fighting people should suffer. He's not sorry, he's just sorry he lost money.
Okay, that was my pibble spiel.
Here's a video from CNN of a recent raid in Georgia of 97 dogs chained in a backyard - mostly pibbles.

Nikita, my 8 year old rescue pit bull, thanks you for this post. I'm in love with this breed too.
And I agree with you about Michael Vick. He's a total ass and should not be allowed to walk among normal human beings.
You know, fostering dogs is a really sweet thing to do. I just read an article today how people just leave their dogs to fend for themselves for reasons sometimes utterly ridiculous like getting bored of their pets. And being an animal lover, I like what you've done.
By the way, you got a nice blog :)
It's great that you foster dogs, how do you give them up though? I'd suddenly have like 6 dogs because I'd refuse to give them up again.
My parents just got a mutt that was rescued from a southern state and brought back to new england - apparently they don't have very good animal shelters down south :(
