Speaking of public service announcements, I wanted to share this absolutely amazing story of Lilly, an extremely brave and loyal pit bull. Many of you know I have a special place in my heart for pitties and we all know they only end up in the news when something bad happens. Pitties are some of the most loyal, caring, loving dogs around and Lilly is truly a hero who deserves to be recognized. Would you do me - and Lilly - a favor? Pass along her story of bravery and love... and send her good healing vibes as she has a long recovery journey ahead of her.
I'm going to paste the beginning of the article here, but please click the link to finish reading... and please, pass it on. Lilly's remarkable story needs to be heard!
