  • Celebrate National Pit Bull Day: Show Love and Appreciation for Pit Bulls with These Fun Ideas!

    National Pit Bull Day, celebrated annually on the last Saturday of October, is a special day dedicated to advocating for and changing the perception of pit bulls. Started in 2007 by Bless The Bullys, a non-profit rescue organization based in Tennessee, National Pit Bull Day aims to increase positive conversations and education about these lovable yet misunderstood dogs. As a proud pit bull owner, or someone who supports this breed, there are many fun and meaningful ways to celebrate this day with your furry friend.

    A Brief History

    National Pit Bull Day is an annual event that started in 2007 by Bless The Bullys as a way to advocate for and change the perspective of pit bulls. Bless The Bullys is a Tennessee-based non-profit rescue whose mission is to restore the image of the American Pit Bull Terrier. 

    It is no secret that pit bulls tend to attract negative media attention and, as a result, have a poor reputation among several individuals. With National Pit Bull Day comes the opportunity to advocate against wrong information and for the lives of pit bulls so they do not end up neglected or abandoned in shelters.

    National Pit Bull Day is also dedicated to the pit bulls, the responsible owners of these dogs, and the advocates of American Pit Bull Terriers nationwide. It is a nationwide effort to increase the positive conversations and education of people in our communities about the lovable yet easily misunderstood dogs that pit bulls are.
