My Life Among the Underdogs: A Memoir by Tia Torres (Pit Bulls & Parolees)

Some posts may contain affiliate links. Read the full disclosure.

We are HUGE fans of Tia Torres and her pack from Animal Planet’s hit show Pit Bulls & Parolees, and are super excited to get our paws on her new memoir My Life Among the Underdogs. It’s a behind the scenes look at her life, her dogs, and her program that pairs parolees with rescue dogs.

Tia has devoted her life to shattering the stereotype that pit bulls are dangerous, vicious predators. As the top dog at the Villalobos Rescue Center in New Orleans, the largest pit bull rescue in the United States, she and her team have rescued, rehabilitated, and rehomed hundreds of animals that might otherwise have been destroyed. As she puts it, “Most of the stories in this book are about animals (and a few humans) that needed someone to believe in them and a purpose in order to show their true nobility.”

The holiday season has begun…or as Daisy and I like to call it, the “hinting season” when we like to leave notes, photos from magazines and other hints telling Woof Woof Papa what we want for Christmas. If you are looking for some great gift ideas that the whole family can enjoy, be sure to check Best Buy, a great Holiday Shopping Destination this Holiday (Hinting) Season.

One family gift that we don’t need to hint about is a new TV for the living room. We are all on the same page about that one and we’ve been doing our research. We’re super excited about the new LG OLED TV at Best Buy.

Some things in life defy all explanation and must be experienced to be believed. Such is the case with LG’s latest display technology. With deeper and richer colors, stunning contrast and ingeniously curved screens, it is unlike any technology you’ve ever seen, and it delivers a picture that exceeds your wildest imagination.

It’s only 0.21″ thick at its thinnest point, with spectacular picture quality and infinite contrast that ranges from the most blazing whites to the deepest blacks. And, LG’s exclusive 4 Color Pixel technology delivers bright, vibrant colors.

And if all that’s not enough, the best part is that right now you can save $500.  You don’t have to wait to fight the crowds on Black Friday.  Best Buy’s price is $3499.
