Take a Hike! The focus of this site is to organize Luv-a-Bully Marches in cities all across the country. The first March (Brea,CA)last October brought out a large crowd of people from several surrounding cities after people saw an article in the newspaper about it. This issue needs to go mainstream to Educate and Demonstrate our stand before we can successfully change the
opinion of a fearful and ignorant general public.

Add a button and get the word out.

Do you have a web site? Or a blog? Then consider adding a button like this one Fight Breed Specific Legislation to your site. You can use that image, if you like (please copy it to your site, don't link to it on mine). Or you can create another. The link can go to this page, but it would be better if the link went to the anti-BSL site that you think is the most educational.

For a relatively painless way to keep up to date on breed specific legislation sign up for this list. No discussions, just a series of short announcements about current issues and needs in the fight against BSL. Frankly it scares the h@ll out of me. I had no idea things were this bad.
