This list is open to people in Alabama and elsewhere who love The American Pit Bull Terrier. We include all pit bulls, that is: American Pit Bull Terriers, American Staffordshire Terriers, Staffordshire Bull Terriers, and, of course the mixes. Our goal is to create a gathering of decent and responsible pit bull lovers.

Our emphasis is on protecting these incredible dogs. We hope to cover many topics regarding the dogs we love. We will definitely include the fight against Breed Specific Legislation (BSL) in our state! We would like to hear from you on your everyday experiences with your dog(s), suggestions, wonderful finds, ideas for fun, in fact, anything that we could find useful or entertaining. In other words, we want you to be serious about your commitment, but fun to have around.

We will not tolerate any subject matter condoning dog fighting or hog/dog rodeos.

This is not an advertising list, but you can discuss good trainers or training equipment, and resources.

We would like you to make us aware of good and bad press or news about the breeds and legislation as it comes up. You CAN and should solicit help with fighting BSL in your geographical area.

If you join the list please introduce yourself and share with us your knowledge of and life with these wonderful animals.

1. Promoting dog fighting

3. Trolling and flaming
4. Ad hominem (personal) attacks
5. Bad-mouthing any dog or dog breed (bad-mouthing PETA is encouraged)
