Bull Horn #001

Posted February 25th, 2014 in Bull Horn by Josh

Tino Sanchez from PeaceLoveAndPitBulls.org and Josh Liddy from SwayLove.org start on a dog-related podcasting adventure. In this very first episode we talk about what led us to advocate on behalf of our dogs, who at whatever level are categorized as being Pit Bulls. Tino really gets into his background and I learned things about his experiences that I had no idea about. The point of this show is to try and be as genuine as humanely possible with the issues that so many dogs face, while also being real and uninhibited with our truths. This is about communication. This is about being, at times, opinionated. We know that this could lead to forms of controversy. I think that both of our hopes is that this outlet more so leads to further perspective and thought-provoking ideas coming from everyone. Our dogs of all breeds need all of us. Open minds for dogs of all kinds is the most helpful mindset to have if we want to promote public safety while also shaming the disgraceful philosophy of hate and prejudice against groups of anything who are lumped together because they visually look a certain way.
