Well Bailey, myself, a friend & his GF all went to the Rover-Lution anti-BSL protest the 28th & Bailey was a hit! She is super social w/ all humans, so she was begging to be petted, climbing in people's laps, etc. & she is not a big dog (about 30lbs c.w.) so she isn't frightening or overwhelming.

We had several people of all ages from middle age adults to grandmas comment that they can't understand why pit bulls have such a bad reputation or that they didn't know pit bulls could be so sweet (as Bailey was kissing their face!). And of course the kids loved her, hugging on her neck as she kissed them!

She also won the costume contest as well. She was dressed up as a prisoner & during the BSL protest I carried a sign my husband made for us that said "Pit Bulls are good dogs too - Don't deny them their freedom!" We got tons of honks of support & some ppl even pulled off the road to pet & hug the dogs! Bailey of course was still a hit, even in her costume, which everyone loved! All in all it was a great day!

I will try to post pics as soon as I get them back! :D

If you check my gallery, you will see Bailey there already in a photo. I didn't pass up that cuttie pie.

That is a different Bailey.The march we went to was the one in Pelham, Alabama & my baby is almost solid chocolate & is much smaller.

Looks like y'all had a good turn out. :)
