Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | LOVE Best Friends Animal Society - "The VICKtory Dogs" etc... I've supported this no-kill sanctuary (Best Friends Animal Society) for a long time and I just love what they do. They're all about direct care/rescue (not politics). Just received their recent newsletter at home - they are the ones who got Michael Vick's dogs and here is a heartwarming update on how they are faring: http://www.bestfriends.org/vickdogs/ (there is some great info about all the pit bull stuff in general too - very, very educational)

| Its heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time! Thank you for sharing that!

| I got their newsletter too. It is really nice. Lots of happy endings. I love their show. I wish I lived close to their sanctuary I would volunteer there.

| OMG I am in LOVE with Little Red. There's just something about her eyes and she has the most beautiful face. I'm going to talk to Mike and see if we can sponsor her. I am so glad those babies are there and are loved and taken care of and don't have to be scared and worried anymore.

Interesting that you picked RED, bc she was the one who hit me hard - bc they had filed her teeth down (etc) and was used as a "bait dog" etc. - I just fell for her big time (she was also featured in the magazine). Isn't she special? There is just something about her that makes you want to flood her w/ nurturing!

| I also have been a hugh supporter of Best Friends after I read their first book. Best Friends started in Arizona and they really are an incredible group of people. Most of my Xmas shopping is done through best friends and sponsoring different animals in my families name. I love their magazine because it covers so many type of animals from domesticated to animals in the wild. The tv show is called Dog town and you can link to it from their home page to read all about it....http://www.bestfriends.org
