ICON misrepresents pit bulls

A company by the name of ICON that makes motorcycle clothing has come out with a new fall design portraying a vicious pit bull. As you may already know, so much is being done to educate people about the true sweet nature of this breed and once again, this is a step backwards. Here is the link that will take you right to the comment page on ICON. Please voice your concern and ask them to re-think what they’ve done and pull the design. Bear in mind that the most effective form of activism is one that is written and/or spoken informatively and kindly.

Horse-Drawn Carriage Accident

I am vehemently against the horse-drawn carriage industry in New York City. Be sure to watch Danny Moss’s footage of the accident in the link. Beijing, London, Paris and Toronto have all banned the unsafe and inhumane horse-drawn carriage industry. Why is NYC so behind the times?

I was hanging out of a cab yelling at this horse drawn carriage operator.

Four Needs Good Four-tune!

Hello,

My name is Four. I used to have a nice warm home that I lived in but my people had to move and their new landlord wouldn’t allow me to go with them. So after 12 years of having a cozy bed to sleep in each night I have now found myself behind an unfamiliar, cold steel cage at a high-kill city shelter.

I need a new home...

I am about 55 pounds, creme colored, completely, utterly housebroken and get along great with dogs and cats. In fact, I could really give a rats-ass about cats! I am currently in the New York City area but if you are not, then I am sure I can hitch a ride to where you are, just ask!

Is someone out there who will kindly let me live out my twilight years with them? I will show you love, respect and a loyalty that will stay in your heart forever… even after I am gone, I promise.

Yours,
Four

P.S. PLEASE don’t write asking me to take your pet. Being a dog and all I am a bit technically challenged and will just delete your email. And think about it, why would I be helping my competition anyway?
