PITBULL AWARENESS MONTH IS HERE!

If you know us, you know this month isn't just another excuse to put a bunch of pumpkins on everything (... no shade, we do it too)! Everything we're built on is rooted in Pit Bull & Rescue Advocacy. We love these dogs fiercely & we're pretty damn passionate about challenging the stereotypes that continue to follow them around like the random aches of a 40-something woman in perimenopause. Hi, it's me! 👋🏻🫡

Pitbull Awareness Month is about celebrating these dogs for who they actually are, not the outdated stigmas that lurk over them. It's about sharing their stories, showing the goofy, loyal, ridiculous, loving dogs behind the labels & reminding people that a breed stereotype is not a personality.

So naturally... we're throwing a PITTIE PARTY!

🖤 THE PITTIE PARTY GIVEAWAY 🖤

One lucky winner will receive a $155 prize package, including:

🐾 A Digital Head-to-Paw Portrait
🖤 Our NEW Premium Oversized Hoodie - Double Sided Design
🐶 A Team Pittie Beanie

HOW TO ENTER:

1. Tell us about your own Pittie...
Drop your answer in the comments. We want the real stuff.. the stories, the experiences, the reasons you advocate, the dogs who changed your life… etc.

2. Follow Barktivist Boutique

3. Tag your people in the comments.
Tag fellow pittie lovers, rescue advocates, dog-obsessed friends, or anyone who needs a little more pittie positivity in their feed.

BONUS EXPOSURE:
Share this giveaway to your stories and tag Barktivist Boutique so we can see it!

⚠️ All required steps must be completed for your entry to count.

The giveaway runs through Oct 6th, with the winner selected shortly afterward.

A LITTLE FYI BEFORE YOU ENTER:

Custom portraits can take up to 4 weeks to complete. Once your portrait is finished, please allow approximately 2 additional weeks for the remaining prize items to arrive. So, basically: up to 6 weeks total to receive the full prize package.

U.S. residents only. No purchase necessary. Prize has no cash value and cannot be exchanged for cash or substituted. This giveaway is not sponsored, endorsed, administered by, or affiliated with Meta.

They still fetch.

That is the true nature of bully breeds.

Despite decades of ridicule and stigmatization. Despite the abuse, neglect, and cruelty so many of them have endured. Despite everything life may throw at them, bully breeds are still inherently good.

Even when life gives them the short end of the stick, they still just want to fetch.

This design is part of our Wyatt’s Wish Collection and is available on our most premium apparel. 50% of the profits from this collection are donated to rescue dogs in need.

Scars Mean Survival.

October holds a lot of meaning for me. It’s Pit Bull Awareness Month, which is at the heart of why Barktivist exists, but it’s also Breast Cancer Awareness Month... a cause that hits much closer to home.

My mom and my oldest sister are both breast cancer survivors. My aunt lost her life to breast cancer, and I know so many other incredible women whose lives have been forever changed by this awful disease.

There is an incredible strength in women. But there is something especially powerful about the strength we find when we’re forced to face pain, adversity, and circumstances that feel impossible to overcome.

And in many ways, I see that same strength in pitties.

Bully breeds continue to face abuse, neglect, discrimination, and a stigma they never deserved. They are judged by what they look like rather than who they are. And despite everything they’ve endured, they continue to fight like hell to survive. To love. To trust. To give us the same loyalty and devotion they’ve been denied so many times.

That’s where these two causes overlap for me.

Every year, I create a new Breast Cancer Awareness design that brings together my passion for advocating for pitties with my personal connection to breast cancer. This year’s design is a Barktivist exclusive, and Scars Mean Survival says exactly what I want it to say.

We all have scars. Some are visible, some aren't. Some tell stories of battles we never thought we'd win. But scars aren't proof that we were broken.

They're proof that we survived.

Shop this design and others on our site! Order by 9/15 to ensure delivery by early October.

We’ll take creepy old houses and ghost hauntings… but stereotypes? There’s nothing worse. 👻

Haunted by Stereotypes features our good pal Jaxon and is a little reminder that what you hear about pitties isn’t always what you get.

It’s part of our BOO-llies Collection, and with October right around the corner, now’s a pretty good time to start stocking up on your spooky season favorites. Wear your pittie pride loud. 🖤🎃

And don’t forget to check my Stories! I’ve got tons of Halloween, Dia de los Mu***os + Breast Cancer Awareness designs that aren’t on the website but can be added to your order. Just DM me to order, and you’ll get a special discount when you pay through Venmo.

Even in the afterlife, we can't help ourselves with the boops.

The BOO-llies Collection is officially LIVE! 🎃🐾

This collection brings together Pitbull Awareness, Halloween, Día de los Mu***os, and Breast Cancer Awareness. Every design ties back to the bigger picture of advocacy, resilience, survival, and celebrating these dogs for what they actually are... not what stereotypes say they are.

A few important launch notes:

🗓️ Order by September 15th to receive your order by early October.

🎨 Ordering new artwork? Please place your new artwork order by August 31, 2026. While the website currently lists new artwork as taking up to 6 weeks, BOO-llies Collection orders will have a special 2–3 week artwork turnaround for this launch.

🐾 Adding new artwork: You can order it from the TAILored Portraits Collection or directly within most product listings.

🛍️ Ordering more than one item? Choose “Just as Is” on each additional listing so you aren't paying for new artwork more than once.

⚠️ Pay attention to the portrait style! Each personalized design is formatted specifically for a particular portrait style, so they are not interchangeable. If you're not sure which style you need, please reach out before ordering. I'm happy to help you figure it out!

I am ridiculously proud of this collection and so excited to finally have it out in the world. 🖤 I hope you love these designs as much as I loved creating them.

And we're not done yet... 👀

I'll be dropping some non-dog-specific designs in Stories over the next week, so keep an eye out.

The three most important things in life:

💧 Stay hydrated.
🐾 Love pitties.
✊🏽 Fight racism.

I don’t make the rules.

This one is simple, a little cheeky, and carries a whole lot of meaning. Definitely one of my favorites. 🩷

Available on apparel as part of the BOO-llies Collection, dropping Friday, 8/21 at 4 PM MST.
