PBPP BSL AWARENESS WALK





Yes Florida is under BSL threat again(UGH!!) with numerous bills currently beING reveiwed by different legislatvie committees..HB 189, and SB 922. These bills follow the findings of an interim report commissioned by the Senate Community Affairs Committee which recommended that local governments be granted the right under their home rule authority to enact breed specific regulations such as registering, muzzling, neutering, or destroying the dog.

SO PBPP held a BSL AWARENSS WALK to bring awareness to this cause on March 14th at Al Lopez Park in Tampa . Please see our website pics at of the walk www.pitbullspoundingthepavement.com at and our Myspace site

BSL TAMPA BAY NEWS
PBPP recently spoke with Mr Bill Armstrong and Mr Dennis McCollough (Head of the Departments) at Hillsborough County Animal Services and they made it quite clear that they are going to stand strong on their beliefs that BSL is not the right direction to go, are totally against it and have been taking strong steps and measures to ensure that these current ridiculous BSL legislation do not pass.

HCAS has come a long way in its efforts to support the Bully Breed Community. Many people do not realize the hard and sometimes heartbeaking work that they do for this community but they are here for the Bully Community.
.
PBPP would like to thank them for their efforts past and present and for their continued support and encourgement.

Please check out a recent news interview with Mr Armstrong telling the news reporter "you think that you will be able to come into my house and take my familly pet..I DONT THINK SO" ..
ROCK ON MR ARMSTRONG!!! PBPP stands behind you!!
