If anyone knows how to post a powerpoint I have the attachment that needs to be spread to all companies for this to be able to happen: The Great Pit Ball. It's a poker tournament, concert, has dining, an art show, and all the proceeds go to Villalobos Rescue Center, who house 200 pit bulls a day average...Help me help them in getting this spread! If it's easier, you can give me your email I can forward the message and attachment to you as well. This is a major thing that is being filmed by Animal Planet and will possibly have it's own 2 hr special later this year, but will definately be the season finale of a six episode series of Outlaw Dogz, also to air later this year. Some of the celebrities already going are actor Danny Trejo (Heat, Dusk Til Dawn), Donal Logue (Max Payne, Zodiac), Bob Barker (Price is Right), Michael Berryman (The Devil’s Rejects, Weird Science) and Pixie Acia (L.A. Ink). Here is the email itself, but we need to get the powerpoint out to any and all companies willing to help out...



"TAKE A LOOK AT THE ATTACHMENT...SPREAD THE WORD. WE NEED SPONSORS....AND HOPE TO SEE YOU ALL THERE!!!!


We need some helping spreading the word to the suits of the world! Please lend us a hand and start stalking.

So the contracts are signed, were going to Vegas. We have many celebrities and bands that requires flights and lodging to be provided, and we need sponsors badly for the event. I am forwarding you a FORM LETTER that can be forwarded along with an attached "sponsorship deck" there are varying levels of sponsorships available ranging from 20,000$ to 1,000$. We were unable to solicit sponsorships until the contracts were signed, and now they are signed.

PLEASE, foreword this email letter and sponsorship deck attachment to any and all companies ie. dog food, magazines, coca cola, pepsi, budwierser, jagermiester, jack daniels, coors, grey goose, kettle one, jim beam, aftercare tattoo products, networks, doggie treats, and company with "pit bull" in their title, chew toys, leashes, training facilities, clothing companies, UFC and their affiliates, tattoo, wierless carriers, websites, bands, recording labels, fast food joints, skateboard co, snowboard co, affliction, tap out, ed hardy, record stores, celebrity charity organizations, cigarette companies, tattoo supply companies, online gambling sites, poker tournaments, Vegas based groups and companies, media sources, etc. Any companies you can think of are welcome.

We have been working overtime to make this event happen, and it's happening, only 6 weeks from now. We need to come together to get as many thousands of emails out this week as possible. WE NEED YOUR HELP. Please foreword this information to anyone and everyone you can possibly think of. Thank you, this event is huge, and insane, and we gotta have some loot asap!

In the letter, it clearly says to refer all inquiries to Julie Starr "Julie Starr" <julie.starr@greenspuncorp.com>, so no one expects you to actually answer emails in relation to this - please foreword all positive responses directly to Julie.

Thank you for your help, seriously. we are setting a new precedent for charitable functions in the tattoo & pit bull communities, and we can't do it alone.

Love and Respect - Brandon Bond - happy hunting...

I have created a petition to present to our government in hopes that a mandatory spay/neuter law is passed and that we can become a "no kill" nation. If you love animals, please take a moment to sign this petition. Thank you.

I used to work in a store that sold puppy mill dogs so I know 1st hand what it's like... you really can't blame the people who work there. They are told & "trained" (yes, TRAINED) to tell customers that the puppies come from reputable "business breeders," even though no one really ever gets to see first hand what those facilities are like. The truth is that no matter what store it is, the puppies come through a broker & brokers only deal with mills. Reputable breeders would NEVER sell their well-bred, expensive puppies to just anyone, espeically at such a cheap price. What it really comes down to is this... and please pass this along... if you buy a puppy from a store or an online-only vendor, YOU'RE BUYING A PUPPY MILL DOG!! Why support this when so many puppies are dying because of it?? It truly breaks my heart!!!

Dolce and I had the pleasure of meeting Baby and Jana just while out for a walk one evening in our Chicago neighborhood in the summer of 2004. It is now that I realize that my life changed forever that evening...It is my opinion that each and every person can benefit from Baby and Jana's story.

We got our Staffordshire Terrier ( pit bull ) from the pound and she is the best dog. What would the nights be without that 55 lb body snuggles up as close to mine as she can. And her smiles...it just melts my heart. We will adopt another pit bull from the pound soon.
