Here’s some videos that I took from Author Ken Foster’s question and answer session while he was out promoting his latest book, “I’m a good dog: Pit Bulls, America’s most beautiful (and misunderstood) pet.” You should really pick up a copy of the book if you haven’t already, as it’s fantastic and full of a proper representation of the dogs that we all know and love. He’s also the author of “Dogs I have met: And the people they found,” as well as “The dogs who found me: What I’ve learned from pets who were left behind.” “The dogs who found me” was actually the first book that I read after Sway had passed away. It’s personalized stories are very endearing and I’d recommend it to anyone. Ken also heads up The Sula Foundation, named after one of his Pit Bulls. Sula also appears on the cover of “The dogs who found me.”

Ken discussing the many ills of breed-specific legislation (BSL).

Ken talking about two unfortunate incidents, Hurricane Katrina and the Michael Vick situation, that ironically led to many new people coming to see Pit Bulls in a different light.

Ken talking about Uba, the former Michael Vick dog who was one of the more prominent faces of the Virginia dog fighting raid. She was commonly misrepresented by the media but is now happily living in her forever home.

Talking about Colleen Lynn and her sensationalistic website DogsBite.org. This website is often sourced by news media, giving much of the audience the impression that it is actually a credible source of information. In reality it’s simply a mega-bias website meant to exploit dog attacks and house rhetoric that blames every living Pit Bull and all of their owners as a group for any mentioned “attack” that they want to run with.

Discussing the backwardness of PETA’s vendetta against Pit Bulls and the crazy actions of their figurehead, Ingrid Newkirk. The story he shares about the email exchange is hilarious!
