I tell you that I had such a misunderstanding of Pit Bulls! I just hated the fact that my daughter kept getting them as pets! Tia has introduced such a wonderful outlook on these animals. Tia Maria You Are An Amazing Woman! I wish that we could be friends because I enjoy having intelligent people around me. Not a whole lot of them to pick from around here! LOL!!! 🙆THANK YOU FOR SHOWING US THE TRUTH. YOU ARE A, SWEET, STRONG, WONDERFUL LADY AND ARE DOING A VERY IMPORTANT JOB IN THIS WORLD.
