Breaking the Stigma: Supporting Pit Bulls One Tote Bag at a Time

Breaking the Stigma: Supporting Pit Bulls One Tote Bag at a Time

Did you know that 80% of pit bulls in shelters face euthanasia simply due to misconceptions and stigma? These loving, loyal dogs often never get the chance to show the world their true nature. At Tortoise and the Flair, we’re passionate about changing that narrative and giving pit bulls the love and respect they deserve. That’s why we’ve created our Love-a-Bull Pit Bull Advocate Tote Bag, a special product with a powerful mission.

Every purchase of this tote bag directly supports the amazing work of Kennel to Couch, a non-profit organization dedicated to sponsoring pit bulls to help them find loving forever homes. Not only does this tote spread awareness, but a portion of proceeds goes toward saving pit bulls from shelters.

Pit Bulls: The Misunderstood Breed

Let’s address the elephant—or rather, the dog—in the room. Pit bulls have long been the victims of harsh stereotypes. Too often, people focus on a single story or a viral incident, painting the entire breed with a negative brush. Dogs are individuals, just like humans, and their behavior is shaped by their environment, care, and training.

What people don’t see are the countless pit bulls who are:

  • The ultimate family dog: Known as “nanny dogs” for their patience and gentleness with children.
  • Furry best friends: Living harmoniously with other animals, from cats to ferrets.
  • Bundles of love: Providing comfort, snuggles, and unwavering loyalty.

Take our sweet Carson, for example. We fostered him almost a decade ago, and it didn’t take long for him to become a permanent member of our family. Over the years, Carson has been a gentle giant, sharing his home with small children, cats, a tortoise, ferrets, and even over two dozen foster dogs. He’s proof that pit bulls aren’t just “capable” of being wonderful companions—they excel at it.

Spreading Awareness Through Love and Action

Pit bulls didn’t create their unfair image, and they shouldn’t have to pay the price. That’s why we’re passionate about educating others and advocating for these deserving dogs. It starts with small actions, like choosing a tote bag that makes a difference.

Our Love-a-Bull Tote Bag isn’t just a functional and stylish accessory—it’s a statement. Featuring a cute pit bull design, it celebrates their lovable nature while sparking conversations about their plight. Every time you use it, you’re helping to shift perspectives and raise awareness.
