Below are just some of the newer dogs you've helped save through your donations. Not shown - but just as important - are the thousands of breed supporters who've been turned on to the breed through your support of BAD RAP's ambassador dogs and education programs.
We can't thank
you enough.
|
Jelly Jones
Jelly Roll Jones was the first Ambassadog to be officially adopted from
our shelter project at
Oakland Animal Services.
He lives with another dog, a baby-grand piano, and a parrot (who rules his world!)
|
Squeeks
This pretty girl went to
an 'Adoption Pending' home this week.
|
Your donations are
keeping this project alive
and moving forward.
Thank you.
Ways to Donate

Lolo
Lolo is a "foreclosure orphan." She's scheduled for surgery this month to
give her two new knees.
This gorgeous dog social,
cat friendly girl
will need a new home
once she heals.

Piglet
Piglet was so depressed
in the shelter kennels
that we gave her a rare foster spot. When she finally went to her new home, she became the second dog officially adopted from the Ambassadog Project.
|
Daddy-O
This senior gentleman teddy bear can thank
BR's trailer for saving his life. The contractor who showed up to donate her services ended up falling in love with his big mug, and the rest is happy history.

Harley
The couple who decided to
make this goofy guy a part of their family had no intention of choosing a pit bull when they came to meet dogs at the shelter. Surprise! Sometimes true love comes wrapped in a big head and slurpy tongue.
|
Newman
Talented Newman learned to do handstands while
he waited for a new home. He was one of the first
dogs we selected for the Ambassadog Program at Oakland Animal Services.
|
Nelly
This Oklahoma born gargoyle princess lived
a hard life on a chain before we met her. She's
learning about creature comforts and getting ready for a medical
procedure to give her nostrils that will allow her to breathe easy for the first time in her life.
|
Ollie Pop
Ollie is one of the most agreeable, eager to
please dogs we've met in many miles. He's getting ready to begin a new life with a couple who are excited to be getting their very first pit bull terrier.
|
Baby Howie
This tender heart is one
of our newest additions
to the Ambassadog Program. He's a back flopper and shameless solicitor of those most coveted belly rubs.

for a new home in
Northern California.

Greetings!
What a year! The cover story describing the Vick dogs' successes in the December Sports Illustrated magazine was the icing on the cake of a very good year for pit bulls. More than just a splash of good press, this piece was a cartwheels-in-the-stomach marker that indicates a larger public is finally ready to hear a different kind of story about pit bulls...one that's much closer to the truth as hundreds of thousands of us live it every day.  To Badrappers, this article (and Jim's Gorant's new book on the topic due out this fall!) represents a culmination of 10 busy years of energies devoted to educating our audience and rescuing marginalized pit bulls - including bust dogs - all of it bolstered by our donors' unwavering support and firm belief in justice. The dogs made it to the cover because pit bull people are more stubborn than breed myths and a helluvalot tougher than prejudice. And of course the dogs never gave up on us. I can't begin to tell you how grateful we are for having such committed partners in this journey. We only know a portion of you by face, yet you've been the best of friends to our organization and to our dogs. Outlined below are the key ways we spent your donations in 2008, along with the names of those who joined us in our collective mission to "secure the future of American Pit Bull Terrier as a cherished family companion." April Fool's Day 2009 is BAD RAP's 10 Year Anniversary. We plan to sink our roots in deeper this year, CELEBRATE our blessings (stay tuned for big party news - you're invited) and otherwise stay well-gripped on the fast swinging spring pole of pit bull advocacy work. With much gratitude, Donna Reynolds Executive Director BAD RAP February 3, 2009

AmbassaDog Program
Trailer, magnum kennel and program equipment: $16,500
Your support helped us make a big new move. We hopscotched from the East Bay SPCA to the busy open admission Oakland Animal Services in 2008 after deciding to roll up our sleeves to help Oakland's neediest pit bulls. We're currently fine-tuning a viable shelter adoption program to benefit the shelter's pit bulls. Our work includes building a team of volunteer handlers and adoption counselors trained to help the overflowing numbers that come in the doors. You made sure we had what we needed to make this a reality and you helped us get our first official 'home' - our beloved 12'x40' trailer - known as Big Blue!
This special space serves as a classroom, training center, meeting room and general
sanctuary for frazzled shelter dogs. You helped us buy equipment including a
large magnum kennel so we could work several dogs at once during our
daily shelter shifts.
Special thanks to the Silicon Valley Community Fund and the Terry Family Fund for giving towards this project.
You helped us keep trainer Sara Scott busy four mornings a week, fine-tuning our Ambassadogs' manners and training a fabulous new crew of volunteer handlers, affectionately known as "the Bully Crew." Out of this effort, we're now endeavoring to serve 18 adoptable shelter pit bulls at a time (eek!) and are working with staff to create new ways to bring a better quality of life to dogs held in custody.
 Your generosity allowed us help OAS staff increase the survival rate of the shelter's adoptable pit bulls in unprecedented numbers (despite a 30% increase in incoming animals since 2005, this last year enjoyed a 63% increase in adoptions of all animals). You helped us buy sassy new caps and aprons so the public could identify our team for information and support. And when we couldn't save a dog, you supported us not only financially, but emotionally so we could offer compassion holds to dogs that fall outside of our ability to help.
AND, when we were short on towels, blankets and toys for the dogs - you sent boxes from all over the country. (You don't know how happy that made us!)
Right: Sweet Bob spent a lot of quality time out of his kennel and in the trailer, playing with his dog friends and learning good house manners before finally going to his new home.

Window seat, please
BAD RAP's 2008 travel expenses: $17,000
It was a big year for travel. Our donors made sure we could get to where we needed to go in 2008 to offer workshops to animal welfare workers, to connect with breed activists, and to bring help to bust victim pit bulls in Missouri, Arizona, and Oklahoma. We sent BAD RAP reps to San Diego to bring a message of owner support a  nd volunteer spay/neuter programs to the AHA (American Humane Association) conference and we traveled to Longbeach to meet with a variety of city government officials at the California League of Cities Conference. We were honored to give a presentation about the Vick dogs at an American Bar Association event in Chicago and a day-long 'how-to' adoption workshop for Tri-County Humane in Minnesota. We trekked up to Milwaukee for a public workshop on pit bull issues sponsored by Wisconsin Humane Society and then flew to Orlando to present to a packed house at the HSUS expo. Each event helped us build important bridges with breed supporters and animal welfare professionals who are eager to receive our information and implement positive changes for the pit bulls in their own communities. You helped us create new printed materials and secure booth space (5K spent this way in 2008) for those conference appearances, including new banners that proudly displayed our Vick dogs and education programs to shelter workers at the HSUS expo and other conferences.
"Perhaps the most valuable session I will have
the privilege to attend." - participant review of BR's 'Toolkit
for Pit Bull Adoptions" workshop at HSUS Expo 2008
We were able to jump on flights and respond immediately to three larger cruelty bust cases involving pit bulls in 2008, including the Kay County, OK cruelty case, the Humane Society of Missouri bust and the 'Patrick bust' in Tucson AZ. While the numbers of dogs we're able to save from these busts will always be modest, we feel strongly that each group of dogs deserves a vocal advocate, so these victims aren't swept under the rug and blamed for their circumstances by high profile organizations. And of course those authorities who say 'Yes' to bust dogs deserve to be supported for refusing to follow 'kill  -them-all' propaganda. As the Sports Illustrated article reported, critics argue that bust victims were not deserving; that it takes a million dollars and a big name celebrity to pull off a rescue. Of course every pit bull rescuer in this country knows different. Thank you for helping us show the world that pit bull rescue efforts aren't dependent on celebrity dollars. Animal lovers always have and always will support disaster relief efforts that bring aid to victimized pets.

Training Classes for the Public & Camps for Professionals
More classes, More CGCs, Better Camps: $32,718
 Training others to be the best stewards they can be is a key focus of our mission, and there's no shortage of pit bull owners and animal welfare workers who want to learn new things and improve their skills.
You made sure we could increase the number of people we could accept into our Pit Ed classes and Canine Good Citizen prep classes in 2008. To meet the growing demand, we added new trainer Donyale Hoye and started running two Beginning and two Drop in classes side by side. Some Saturdays it can get veeery busy with up to 60 dogs and handlers coming in and out for their lessons. With all the action and dog fun, it's become our favorite day of the week!
Trainer Linda Chwistek started up a Pit Ed class in Vallejo in '08 to meet the needs of north bay pit bull owners. She's looking forward to increasing the class size as more people learn about this fantastic resource. Linda also helped over two dozen pit bull owners accomplish their goal of getting their dogs 'CGCed' in 2008 - Canine Good Citizen certified. CGC Hall of Fame The coaching is free for the public and can involve weeks of work, including private one-on-one sessions with the ever-generous, 'I-can't-say-no-to-a-dedicated-dog-owner' Linda.
Your gifts helped us continue our quarterly Pit Ed Camps so animal welfare workers could get in depth training for adoption programs back home. We were able to create new and improved educational materials and offer full and partial scholarships so shelters with low budgets could attend. You even helped us build a new website for this branch of our work, so we could begin offering more shelter-specific information and materials into to shelters with pit bulls. (Watch this puppy grow in 2009).
A special thanks to Animal Farm Foundation for their generous support of the Pit Ed Camp program, and to PetCo for helping us buy our projector for presentations.
Donors also made sure we could pay our bills to keep BAD RAP's website alive and in front of the tens of thousands of new visitors who learned of the site from the media and came to read our information for the very first time. Viva high traffic stats!

Vet Care for Dogs-in-Need
Costs for 2008: $8,900
We were blessed to have the court awarded restitution money to care for our ten Vick dogs in 2008, so their medical needs including the rebuilding of Audie's bad knees were covered. (Whew!)
We're especially grateful to our supporters for remembering our not-as-famous NON-Vick dogs in '08 with your donations. You helped us cover $8,900 for general vet care including spay/neuters. We were also able to buy supplies with this amount for low income pit bull owners who came out with their dogs to two free BR-sponsored Shots Fairs.
Some of the donations ear-marked specifically for spay/neuter surgeries will be carried over to our Shots Fair events in 2009 in the form of spay/neuter vouchers, starting with our Oakland-based fair now scheduled for March 1. Above: A happy Shots Fair client.
Special thanks to Scott & Lori Heintzelman and to Michael O'Hare
for giving so generously towards BAD RAP's spay/neuter efforts.

Our Wonderful Supporters
These are the donors who gave to this project. Regrettably, we did not put out a year-end report and donor list in 2007 due to the unexpected time constraints that choked us up after the Vick dog launch (ack!), so what you see here accounts for years 2007 and 2008. Many people on this list gave twice or more over the past 24 months.
This list does not include the many people who bought products from our CafePress Store, or who surprised us with a bag of dogfood or stuffed toys or who left dog beds in our driveway. You know who you are and we thank you!
Sincerely,
BAD RAP Steering Committee
