Princess Fiona

Hello to you all!

This is my chance to tell you about myself. Of course, it surprises me that you do not already know who I am. After all, I AM a Princess. I did not always carry this title though. Perhaps you knew me before I realized how wonderful I am.

I showed up one cold October night on my parent's front porch. My Daddy (The King) was not very smart about us "Bully Breeds" yet and he was afraid of me. He brought out the hose and sprayed me down, trying to get me to go home. The problem with that was, I did not have a home worth going to. So now I was cold, lonely and wet. I curled up in a little ball and just waited. About two hours later the people came outside again. By this time I was so cold that I couldn't stop shivering. While my Mommy (the Queen) could not take it, and she got right down on the ground and called me over in a very gentle voice. I did not hesitate at all. I went over to her and showed her just how sweet I could be. They decided to keep me overnight and see how I behaved. Obviously I behaved perfectly.

My Mommy decided I looked like a little ogre (which I do not think is quite true) so they named me Princess Fiona. As soon as I heard the name I warmed right up inside. I finally had a home with people who would love me and treat me right. Plus, I began a revolution inside my new family's house. Because of the love I was able to show them, I introduced them to the positive side of the Bully Breeds. Now, they do everything they can to spread the truth about Breed Specific Legislation and the pain and anguish it causes innocent animals and their families.
I am Princess Fiona, an American Staffordshire Terrier and I am loved very much by my family.

I am my Daddy's best friend and he is mine. I do not know what he would do without me. I do not think he knows either.

Our mission statement

Hi everyone! We are the Bully Breed Buddies. Our names are...

Princess Fiona (American Staffordshire Terrier)

Noelle (American Pitbull Terrier)

and Freckles (Boxer/Lab mix)

and we are here to tell you all about our adventures together. Our Mommy and Daddy want us to help fight BSL.

BSL is a scary thing. It tries to get rid of all animals who look like us, just because some of us turn out to be not so good. Even though MOST of us are great, some people like to try and turn us mean, either by training us that way, neglecting us, or by breeding the meanest dogs they can find. A lot of the time they mix other breeds in with us to make us bigger and stronger. But people who support BSL think we should ALL die. It doesn't matter if we are therapy pets, police K-9s or just our owner's best friend, in their opinion all bully breeds are bad.

Thankfully there are a lot of people who are on our side. Caesar Milan, Rachael Raye, Micheal J. Fox and millions of everyday people believe in us and know that our hearts are good. They know that if we are treated properly and given the discipline, exercise and love that we need, we will almost always turn out good. Of course, every once in awhile a dog will come around who is just unstable. That happens with poodles, chihuahuas and labs too! It doesn't mean that we should all be killed for it!

With the next blog we'll introduce ourselves separately so you can get to know who we are. This blog won't be all serious and scary with political stuff. Most of the time it will just be our lives with our people.

Thanks for reading and don't be afraid to comment at any time. After all, we won't bite!
