I was at San Francisco's Civic Center yesterday protesting and marching and why yes, my feet are still hurting thank you very much, and I noticed how many dogs were rallying, protesting, and marching with us -- especially pit bulls, who, after all, know a thing or two about second class citizenship.
So of course I got out my camera and started taking pictures... and here's my slideshow of the Dogs of Equality. Enjoy!

Great pix Christie ! With you in spirit on the march even though I'm across the country.

Great pictures! We're easterners, but were definitely there with you in spirit. (In body, I was busy sitting in my living room cursing the TV while the boys looked on in amusement and annoyance.. but I digress.)
Methinks going to a march would be right up Thomas' alley. (Alas, Thomas happens to be a cat, and I'm betting more than a few of the dogs in attendance would probably want to eat him! Sorry, Thomas, such is life.)
Lots of good looking dogs out there fighting the good fight, though. :)

I really don't understand why you can't have the same rights I have.

I am quite certain everyone recognized Dog No. 17 as a Large Munsterlander, right? I'm pretty sure, anyway, having utterly fallen in love with them in England.
Here's are pics I took at Crufts in 2004:
