Pin-ups for pit bulls
Pin-ups for Pit Bulls is back with a brand new calendar for 2009, orders for which are now being taken.
You’ll remember this group, perhaps, from last year, when they were featured on the old Sun Mutts blog, along with a photo of their leader, aka Miss October, aka Dierdre Franklin.
The new calendar — proceeds from which go to organizations involved in pit bull rescue — was shot with a new crew of photographers, new models and new dogs.
To order go to pinupsforpitbulls.com, click on boutique, then calendar, then pre-order. It costs $20 plus shipping and handling.
Last year, the organization donated more than $10,000 to rescues across the country. With the funds from calendar sales, fundraisers, and art auctions, the group helps hundreds of dogs throughout the year.
The Pinups for Pitbulls also have a couple of blogs. There’s this one and this one, and there’s a myspace page as well.

I met an awfully sweet Pit Bull today at Dogma. Recycled Love was having an adoption day there, and they had some wonderful dogs. Mr. Pit Bull caught my attention because he was sitting so quietly and giving his handler what I call the Pit Bull Lean of Luv–the one where they lean against your knee and look up at you with those big old eyes full of affection. He was so gentle and affectionate! He’ll make a great friend for some lucky human. My other favorite was a tiny ragmop of a terrier called Molly. Her little belly is sprinkled with light pink polka dots, and she’s not too dignified to request that it be rubbed–right now, please. I hope all the dogs will find their forever homes very soon–they have a lot of love to give–the big ones and the little ones.
