I'm doing research on pit bull training programs for low-income families/areas. So far I only have run across Downtown Dog Rescue's Pit Bull School and Bullseye's Train-A-Pit. Can you guys give me links to others?

Animal Farm Foundation may offer something or know of something. They have low cost spay Neuter for pit bulls. I once did a class highly discounted for shelter adoption. However sorry I did the guy was an ass. Took retrospect and learning to know that.

I have taught Bully Breed Obedience classes at my work (a non-profit organization with a dog training facility), which are beginner training classes, but they cater to those that are already decent pit bull owners. I live in a community that is low-income and Terry and I have long toyed with the idea of trying to get these pit bull owners, many with unspayed and un-neutered dogs, involved in a class that helps to educate them. We have seen You Tube vids of communities that have had similar programs, but now that I am researching it, I'm having trouble finding them. We want information on how to deal with ignorance, on identifying with these members of the community, and how to make such a program successful.
