About

That Touch of Pit is a place to celebrate pit bull-like dogs while changing minds.

Jennifer has worked in animal welfare for almost 10 years and has come to adore the bully breed.  Although she doesn’t have a blockhead pup right now – she shares her home with two feisty scruffy terriers, a mature minpin and a sphynx who thinks he is a dog, but she is the pittie stalker at the dog park!   Jennifer is the intake specialist at New York’s Animal Haven where she is lucky enough to meet many passionate rescuers and shelter workers in addition to lots and lots of dogs!  In her spare time, Jennifer volunteers her time with Bully Project in NYC by organizing free and fun training classes for bully breeds and their owners.

Josh is the Social Media Manager for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, one of the nation’s leading industry-based, nonprofit AIDS fundraising and grant-making organizations. Along with their work in HIV/AIDS fundraising, BC/EFA also helps produce the annual dog and cat adoption event, Broadway Barks. His lifelong love of animals is what drove him to adopting his first dog, Lucy, which is when he met Jennifer. Since adopting Lucy, Josh has become a devoted pit bull advocate and foster parent.
