		<description>Great video, Andrea!  This little guy and his sister have drawn quite a bit of attention.  Thank you for being their rescue angel and for putting them both in hands that will never hurt them again.</description>

		<description>The worst form of animal abuse for the &quot;Bully Breeds&quot; is dog fighting.  My book &quot;Billy&#039;s World&quot; is about an American Staffordshire Puppy that I rescued from a dog fighting operation at 3 months.  He had the cuts and missing patches of hair to prove that he was already &quot;in training.&quot;  The book is making people more aware of the terrible form of animal abuse that dog fighting is for this breed.  The graphical depiction of the horrors of training and fighting dogs will convince anyone who reads it that a greater effort should be made to eradicate dog fighting.

“Billy’s World” is meant to remind the reader that at this very moment there are animal gladiators being forced to kill or be killed—and this is happening all over America. They do it not because they are vicious, but because of their unflinching loyalty and desire to please.  Others of the same breed, strength, and temperament are playing with children or snuggling to a human companion.  Same noble breed---the only difference is in the people around them.

If these breeds are re-socialized back into a world where people love them and care for them they become one of the most loving creatures alive.  They must be given a chance.</description>

		<description>Well done!  Kudos to you for doing your part to dispel the horrible reputation that pit bulls have garnered because of idiot owners.  I thoroughly enjoyed this video and hope that someone will give this beautiful pup a fur-ever home that will be safe and loving.</description>
