Great show. It really reveals how these dogs are just so special and wonderful. It is not a bad breed but a breed that has been misused by humans and when given the opportunity they can show their true nature..... Loving and kind, loyal and true. Hopefully the public can be properly educated on this breed and how to care for animals of all walks of life.... With compassion,love and understanding. Thank you for doing a great job rescuing the pups and peeps. Prayers sent your way!

It is a loss for California, which needs something like Tia and her crew to save them from looking totally ridiculously stupid for forcing her to move. They are so ignorant(the people and authorities, have no brains to force her out of there state.) They screwed up big time, they need as much good publicity as they can get!!
