Karma Dogs promote animal kindness in memory of Phoenix

Phoenix the pit bull

 

You may have followed the very sad story of Phoenix, the pit bull puppy who died in Southwest Baltimore after being set on fire. (Two teenagers are accused with setting the blaze.) Now a local organization we've talked about a little on this blog is starting a program in Phoenix's memory to teach children kindness to animals.

Our Unleashed blog has the details about the Karma Dogs Oath of Kindness program. On Saturday, June 20, there will be a Karma Dogs reading event at the Towson Library where kids can find out more.

That's absolutely FANTASTIC and is right up the alley of what I was referring to in the "punishment" blog. Taking positives from this tragedy is the only real way to honor Phoenix's memory.
