The 2nd Annual Bully Breed Brigade

Are you aware of the Pit Bull plight and the overwhelming number of Pit/Bully breeds languishing in our Town shelters?

The second annual Bully Breed Brigade, is designed to show that shelters and rescues throughout Long Island are united in strategizing ways to help our overflowing Pit populations.

The public is invited to this combo adoption & information event. We ask the public to leave their dogs home, unless invited guests.

Tia Torres from the Animal Planet show "Pit Bulls & Parolees" is expected to attend, as she did last year.
