So I started a thread yesterday about AC showing up on my doorstep due to a empty complaint by a neighbor... Well the ACO apparently talked the school district office in our town and suggested that I go to every school with my dogs to talk to kids about animal abuse, a commitment to animals...

So I saw this video today, and was like. COOL! Positive interaction with a pitty! and a very pretty one too...then I remembered this was a BLACKBERRY COMMERCIAL! I dunno about you guys,but I find this very ironic. How many of you here know that BB is owned by Research in Motion - a Canadian...
