Everyone seems to be settling into their ideas and moving on to considerations about color, design and organization...I am feeling a little behind. But I've read all the helpful comments on my posts so far--thank you!
I am thinking about doing something informative about Pit Bulls. My pit bull is my favorite thing in the world and I think that feeling passionate about my topic will help me to pull it together.
I am thinking that my site will be an instructive resource for pit bull ownerships, or those considering ownership, as well as an homage to my pit bull, Alibi and an excuse to post adorable pictures of her.
I hope I can come up with enough angles to make a site. There are lots of legal issues to consider--many cities are passing breed-specific legislation to ban pit bulls. Many home insurance companies and home associations do not allow "dangerous breeds." It is very difficult to find an apartment that a) accepts dogs and b) will accept pit bulls, even if they do accept dogs. Because I have moved so frequently, this has been a big issue. I have had to fly across the country several times with Alibi and it gets harder and harder. Very few airlines will now allow dogs in the cargo area. The ones that do specifically do not allow Pit bulls. Before boarding an airplane, you most show a certificate of health from the vet, that also specifies the breed. Every time I've flown with Alibi, I've had to have the vet write "mixed breed" or "staffordshire terrier" for the breed, instead of pit bull. They are always happy to do this. Anyone who meets Alibi falls in love with her because she is so obviously loving and wonderful.
Sorry I'm rambling. Any thoughts on this idea? Should I scrap it and go with something else, like craft projects?
Thanks for all your insight!
