    I was having this discussion at work and someone brought up a very good point. It could be that the reason why they didn't refer to him as a pit bull is that they're looking for donations to cover for the cost of surgery and people would be more willing to give to a non-pit bull sounding dog.

    That story is awesome. I hope they find a home soon so they can all be reunited.
    Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
