Paula Blomquist; Owner It has been my life's mission to help Bully breed dogs. Mostly the American Pitbull Terrier types. loving home. She is 3 years old.

I was rescuing abused Pitbulls, in the 1980’s before it became a social outcry. I have climb fences and stolen dogs who were being abused, been part of underground railroad who took dogs that were being groomed for fighting and placed them in loving homes. I have also helped many IL local rescues with charity events. When my daughter turned 9 years old, she joined me in my crusade. My daughter wo

uld be at pet adoption events talking to complete strangers and educating them on sterotypes and myths about pitbulls, they heard were true. How did this cause become such a strong part of who I am? It all started with a beautiful black and white pitbull named Moo. After seeing her tied to a tree for hours on end everyday as my friends and I carpooled to work in the suburbs of Chicago. Never getting any attention, quite often did not appear to have food or water, we devised a plan one night to steal her off the tree she was constantly chained to. We were successful and she lived to be 13 years old in a very pampered. The second pitbull I ever loved was a red nosed American Staffordshire I received from some close friends as a wedding gift. Nevada was the love of my life kind of dog. So much so, that when I divorced several years later, I had it put in my divorce decree that I got full custody of him. He was the only male who never let me down. But more importantly he was the loyal companion to my daughter and OVER 70 FOSTER KIDS in his 15 years of life. He was the ambassador to what was great about the breed and how they truly interact with children. He helped change the mind of hundreds of people we met over the years. Currently I have 3 pitbull dogs in my household. Keira a 17 years old fawn colored, was rescued in FL as a 12 wk old puppy from some displaced homeowners from MS, after surviving Hurricane Katrina. Freedom aka Nugget was found running loose by the Phoenix airport and we think is about 8 yrs now...
6 of those with me. Bella Luna is my daughters gray pit bull who we rescued from Maricopa Animal control. I have a 4th dog I rescued from a crack house in Phoenix, as a puppy. Titus aka TBone. Is a Dingo/ Australian Shepherd mix. RIP~
Brick was my Brindle, who was taken from a dogfighter in the suburbs of Chicago in 2009, who was training him to be a fighting dog. He died in 2015. Karma was a blue Pit, I rescued in 2012 from a backyard breeder in the suburbs of Phoenix. He died in 2016 from cancer.

This one really stings…Gen X. Matthew Perry was comical genius! He used his whole body for comic effect like all the greats like Dick Van D**e, Lucy and Carol Burnett and Company!
