Addie is part pit-bull. It isn't real obvious in photos, but in person she looks exactly what you'd expect a lab-pit mix to look like. We get a lot of negative responses from people that are "breed-ist". Addie is the sweetest dog, I have ever had. As I was posting these pics, she had her head on my leg and was looking up at me with her beautiful light brown eyes. Wherever I go, she is always there at my side. I have never had such a close bond with any other dog in my life, and I think it is sad that people hate and fear her because of what she looks like. Like most pit bulls (and many breeds of dogs), Addie is stubborn, dominant, extremely strong, intelligent, loyal, and very very very energentic. I could see how this could be a problem with an irresponsible owner, but I have made every effort possible to socialize her with adults, children, dogs, and even cats. She is a pure sweetie. She had an abusive past, that I can tell will haunt her forever, but an agressive killer, she will never be.

It is very nice to know, there are so many people at pet talk that can love and respect a breed that has all but been thrown to the thugs of the society.
