Friends, Fun & Pitbulls Oh My!

How do you spend a Sunday Funday? Why getting together with a passionate, intelligent, committed group of people to discuss lifting the breed ban in various communities in KC, specifically Prairie Village. We loved the opportunity to meet people at Bearde' Salon in Mission, followed by presentations at Melange Dance. Hearing Courtney Thomas, President/CEO of GPSPCA is always a thought provoking treat! In addition, we were honored to hear from Emily Coleman (Certified Dog Trainer), Beth Pauly (GPSPCA Director of Volunteer/Legislative Affairs), Monica Matthews (DVM) and Missouri Pit Bull Rescue.
