Pet Blog of the Week: BAD RAP
It’s time for the Pet Blog of the Week! This week, it’s a dog blog called BAD RAP: Bay Area Dog-lovers Responsible About Pit Bulls.
The BAD RAP blog is one of my favorites. As it says on the group’s website, BAD RAP is “a diverse and growing group of owners, rescuers, and supporters of the American Pit Bull Terrier.” They are one of the most highly respected pit bull rescue pet groups out there. Their animal shelters for pit bulls are highly functional, well-run, successful, and warm and caring.
The BAD RAP blog chronicles the lives of the rescue pets the group has, and is mostly concerned with educating people about pit bulls. There are posts about dogfighting and the following the Michael Vick dogs, about dog breed information, about training the dogs, and more.
Whether you are a pit bull lover or if you don’t really like pit bulls, I would encourage you to visit the BAD RAP blog. You will definitely learn something about the dog breed of pit bulls and it just might change your mind about the breed.













What an awesome site! I just added them to my blogroll. i cant believe i never knew about htem before.
I saw this group on that Animal Planet show Animal Witness. They seem like a GREAT rescue org. Didnt know they had a blog, thanks for letting me know!
Great resource. I’m not a pit bull person but I’ve met lots of sweet ones at the dog park.
People just haven’t given the breed a fighting chance (no pun intended).
They really do make great companions.
I could only watch part of the story recently on tv about the Michael Vick pit bulls and went those poor little souls went through with him. I think we should put that idiot in a cage with a couple of grizzly bears – maybe he would think twice the next time about torturing helpless animals.
Bad Rap has done an amazing job with those dogs – my hat goes off to them – they are an amazing group of people. Check them out.
Much the interesting has found here
