This is Emma. We found her in our yard in the east mountains (where lots of people like to dump their dogs). She either pushed her way through the fence (she was skinny enough) or someone was at least smart enough to put her in a fenced yardw ith no other dogs. She had just had a little and the vet said she had many many pregnancies. She's obviously a mix, but starvation does a lot to change your composition. She was scared and searching for her pups. She even carried a sneaker around for a while pretending she had found one. (now I'm almost crying and it's been 3 years!) She's the love of my life. She was growly and scared of everything including stairs and her own reflection (but not cats). Now she loves all people (a little afraid of men) and causious of other dogs. She has a little trouble getting her temper under control if she looses it with our other dog (a shepard mix) but she would lay down her life for us. BTW, we call her a "pincher mix" because bully breeds are illegal in Tijeras.

These are my babies! I love them both. The big guy was a rescue from AHANM a couple of years ago. He'd been badly abused by previous owners. However he's the friendliest sweetest doggy you'd ever want to meet.
The smaller dog is Petunia, she was rescued at 5 weeks old from some #)$)@(# who thought was a "breeder". When the mother dog got sick he started handin' out the babies to whom ever would take them. Miss Petunia is also a sweet and wonderful creature, she's great with my house mate's daughter and loves everyone she meets. She keeps Rudi company and brings him his food when he has senile moments and forgets to eat..

KaB, what's up? If you have time, post some pics of available pitts.

I adopted a Pit/Greyhound mix two years ago, and he has become a precious member of the family. He was born on the streets and lived there for two years, so it took a lot of work to get him to learn some manners. He has always been great with people and loves to cuddle. He is a bit aggressive towards other dogs, but he and my German Shepherd are the best of friends (even after they "argue"). I would never give him up. :)

great stories about just how great this breed is! you can see in my picture that I have two "vicious breeds" - one of which is a pit mix - she is one of the sweetest dogs I have ever had and she has every right to hate humans. she was rescued by PACA as a bait dog and had spent two years out on the navajo reservation not allowing anyone near her...now all she wants to do is share her love. I have watched little prissy purse breeds start more fights than any large breed, and it brakes my heart to see how people (even trained rescuers) react to big dogs.

Flaca, that is a crazy story and KaB, just keep talking and doing for your and others dogs. I am always a hair away from adopting one, i've no business adding another to the family, heck, i live up in the north valley and the other day i pulled into my driveway, got out of the truck to open the gate and i see this real nice pit come trotting around the corner directly at me, so i step aside and open the truck door, i live right on 4th street and didn't want the dog to run into traffic, he jumps into the truck, i had to scoot him over from the drivers seat, i jump in, then he jumps into my lap like i'm his long lost owner, he was going off, it was too funny, thinking, i'm keeping this dog, but i recognized him from the neighborhood and immediately returned him and made a couple of new friends in the neighborhood, once again we see the horriffic pit bringing people together. i offered my assistance for training and went on my way.

That is sooo awsome! I hate when people give us dirty looks on walks, and pull their children away from my bully's wagging tail.. It's very intimidating. ; )

Notice the pit bull mix to the left. When we got her-rescued-she had eye, ear and skin infection from dehydration besides bronchitis. We only kept her because we have a solid concrete block wall. Most attacks are caused by middle school students teasing a dog on the school route. She has given us 8 years of love. One time I was walking down the street and a toy dog got out, ran across the street and down the block. The owner screamed, "Pit bull, pit bull, I'll sue. Help, pit bull!" All of the neighbors came out with shovels and whatever. They saw Diamond lying down and not moving at all, while the toy attacked her. They came and pushed the vicious toy off of Diamond and screamed that they'd testify for Diamond. Diamond now has too play mates, young Bluetick Coonhounds. I think that this has been the first time that she can play, since she was taken from her mother's teat. She had to learn how to play. Sometimes she's on the bottom, then the top and in the middle. They play rough and then rest together. Here diamond is resting with the male, while the female is standing. They like to play tag a lot and dig. She's helped teach them how to be city dogs.

“Burque Babes n’ Bully’s”Ó
A Pit Bull Benefit Calendar

While huge numbers of Pit Bulls in this country are cherished family pets, many not so fortunate suffer the consequences of neglect, fighting rings, and a never ending bad rap. The ladies of Burque Babes n’ Bully’s are standing up for the bully breed by shining a new light on the loving and loyal breed. We are doing so by creating a pin-up calendar (to be released in November 2008) , volunteering at Albuquerque’s Animal Care Centers, and raising money at local events put on by B.B.B. All proceeds will be donated to Albuquerque’s only pit bull program RAAP– Responsibly Adopting Albuquerque’s Pit Bulls – a non-profit animal welfare organization.

In 2006, RAAP was formed, specifically to educate the public about this magnificent but much-maligned breed and to place as many of them as possible into loving, responsible homes. As you may not know, Albuquerque’s Animal Care Centers take in more pit bulls than any other type of dog. Nearly 25% of all the dogs impounded at both our city shelters are pit bulls and pit mixes. The vast majority of these are euthanized.

It is the mission of the Burque Babes n’ Bully’s and RAAP to dispel the hysteria and correct the myths about bull breeds via outreach and information, community events, and training( puppy and adult socialization classes). Any, and all donations for the upcoming calendar can help us achieve this goal, and not only give the adoptable pit bulls a new lease on life, but prevent them from terrible situations in the first place.

Although your donation will not be tax deductible, we will be sure to put an advertisement for your company in the calendar (the bigger the donation, the bigger the advertisement). If you are not with a company, you will still be mentioned in the thank you section, and either way, your contribution can help us make a difference.


~ Punish The Deed, Not The Breed~




Please contact Kassie Brown for more information or to give a donation.
