Hi Lollie!
Our mumma just discovered your gorgeous website through the story on you on omidog!
We think you are just great, and really, really hope you find your forever home soon!
We wish you could come and live with us, but we live a long way away in Australia and our mumma is allergic to most doggies (except us wheatens!)
We think you dance great and you do bobble heads just like us!
Love,
Anouk and Ziggy Stardust, the wheaten ‘terrors’.
I’m not even sure how I found your blog but now am addicted and check in on the Lollie chronicles daily. I’m pretty sure I would have sought to adopt Lollie by now (really a month ago when I found your blog) if not for three things. 1. “high energy and good running companion” worry me a bit (I don’t run and we don’t even have a yard) 2. current rescue dog Melvin is extremely selective about which dogs he likes (in 3-years we’ve found two dogs he will tolerate for a playdate) and 3. I (and most of the people that I’ve turned onto your blog) want YOU to keep Lollie. There is so much love in what you write that the urge to adopt is sometimes overcome by the guilt of denying him the joy of you.
You are a hero among dog owners and rescuer’s, thank you for what you do!
correction: denying “HER” the joy of you. Never blog post pre-coffee!
Hello FosterMom & Lollie –
We have loved following along Lollie’s story. Thank you for sharing her with all of us. Your blog has been so interesting to follow and we find ourselves always coming back for more.
Today, we were awarded a Stylish Blogger Award and we would be delighted to pass it on to you. Congratulations on your new home Lollie – and we can’t wait to meet the new foster pup.

I am so excited to hear that you will be fostering again. You did a wondeful job with Lollie, and like so many others I am addicted to the blog. If you ever need a play date for Chick or future fosters with a sweet and ENERGETIC 1 year old pitbull rescue, feel free to let me know. I am in the MD area. I fell hard for Lollie because she looks like my little girl Mya.
Normally I never comment on blogs, but I have to say, I am in LOVE with your blog, your HANDSOME Chick and all of your fosters. You blog warms my heart and honestly makes me want to foster. Your words, photos and videos make my morning (along with my coffee)!
Cindy, Thanks for this wonderful note — you and my coffee made my morning today! I hope you do consider fostering if you’re at all able. In a couple of weeks I’ll be doing a series of guests posts and interviews with other nice folks who foster dogs — their perspectives on fostering, how they got started, etc. Maybe you will make some good connections or somebody else will help ease your remaining questions. If you ever want to talk about it, please send me an email. I love coaching people through the logistics and questions of getting started! Best, Aleksandra
You may wish to write an article on this. I’d be interested in your thoughts. I don’t think the Superintendent is qualified to make such assumptions.

I discovered your blog this weekend and have spent countless hours (between dog walks, baths, etc) reading through from start to finish. Your photography is stunning and your writing style is inspiring. I feel like I really got to know each and every one of your foster dogs personally through your words.
As the co-founder of a pit bull rescue up here in On-Scario (Ador-A-Bull Dog Rescue), I just wanted to say, thank you for all you do.
Tail Wags,
Lisa and Greddy (aka The Walrus)
I usually never comment on blogs, but I found yours and it brings me so much joy to read your perspective on chick, fostering, and loving the pitbull. I adopted my first dog 1 1/2 years ago and had no idea what I was in for adopting a pit mix. She has brought me more laughter and joy than I could have ever imagined. I truly believe that she brings everyone luck. So much so, that we recently decided that maybe she could bring some luck to another pit bull mix needing a forever home and started fostering. Your blog truly captures the best qualities of pit bulls; their love, affection, unbridled joy, goofiness, silliness and most importantly, the snuggle factor.
Thank you so much for making my day every day with your wonderful blog and beautiful pictures. <3
ps. My sister's name is spelled the same way as yours.
Hi Zoki, Thank you for this fantastic note! I love the community that I have found since starting this blog. Your dog sounds wonderful, and I’m thrilled to know you started fostering. How is it going? Best, Aleks PS- are you Serbian?
Hi Aleks, Fostering is great!! We really wanted to find a way that we could help in some way. We couldn’t really adopt another dog because of the size of our place, so after being completely floored (and shedding many tears over unfortunate dogs that I never met) by the situation at many shelters in the US, I discovered the opportunity to foster to help. It was perfect for us. We are doing it through Angel City Pit Bulls in Los Angeles, where we live. I think they gave us an easy foster because we are a first time foster family. It is probably one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. It is an honor to be a part of helping Moose find his forever family. We will definitely do it again once Moose is adopted. Best, Zoki PS. Yes, we are Serbian.
I would like any and all info about a pit puppy named Nellie. A friend of mine posted her picture and face your web info. I live in Castroville,Texas. My number is 210-875-9084. Thank you.
I LOVE your blog! Just started my own WP blog and have been looking at all those featured. Such a newbie here, but I LOVE yours! My daughter and her boyfriend rescued two pit bulls and hers at least is the sweetest thing. I’ve told her about your blog and I hope she visits. Good luck with your noble mission!
Hiya,
Love the blog and seeing the pictures of all the doggies and hearing their stories!
I saw a picture on your other blog I absolutely loved and which also matches something I said regarding a post I have made on my own blog. I was wondering if you guys would allow me to post it there, and if possible (don’t know exactly how all the WordPress stuff works yet) link it directly to where I have taken it from – your blog
http://love-a-bull.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/fight-bust-dogs-120129-63.jpg – this is the picture and link for it.
And my post in which I wanted to include it is on a quite general topic of the good and bad: http://hittinghome.wordpress.com/2012/02/01/the-good-and-the-bad/
Thank you for a great blog! You and your adorable dogs are an inspiration!

Hello,
So I’m looking at getting a hoodie for my pitty for our cold Montana nights. I remember you mentioning you got them from Baxter Boo. Now are yours fleece lined by Zack & Zoey? What sizes do you have for your dogs? Do you love them or would you recommend something else? Thanks!
Love your blog!
