Dog Days
Posted by Alex Woodward on Mon, Dec 1, 2008 at 11:42 PM
To holiday shoppers lurking near the ubiquitous cute pet calendar cart at the mall, please consider this alternative:
The Sula Foundation released its inaugural calendar, "The Pit Bulls of New Orleans," featuring pan-Crescent City canines and their BFFs, like Cue and Queenie and their owners Bennie Peet and Big Al from Hot 8 Brass Band, and Dag with Kim Dudek from Belladonna Day Spa and Dag’s House.
It’s available at Garden District Books, Faulkner House, Canine Culture, Canine Connection, Neophobia, Belladonna, Beth's Books, Petcetera and Faubourg Art and Books.
And the best part: proceeds from the calendar go to the foundation’s work with pit bulls, including sponsorship of low-cost vaccination clinics, educational outreach programs and more. So — you with the bee-costumed-pugs tear-away — no excuses this year.

The last pit bull I saw had been tied to a fountain at Audobon Park and abandoned. It was covered in bleeding sores and had bite and scratch marks all over it. Park security was trying to remove it, but every time they approached it, it lunged at them snarling and barking.
