 Nell Boeschenstein, dog-lover and journalist (and former C-VILLE staff writer), is getting the word out that pit bulls (like her own Crystal) are just like all other dogs if they don’t fall into the wrong hands. |
Nell Boeschenstein, former C-VILLE staff writer, current graduate student at Columbia University, and the brains behind this newspaper’s ever-popular "Hit This Site" column (hit it right here every week at this c-ville.com site) has a new article on the website The Morning News about 1) her determination to adopt a pit bill and save it from possibly becoming one of "the victims of some of humanity’s worst habits"; 2) how badly she misses Crystal (that would be the pit bull), who’s living for now with Nell’s parents in Charlottesville; and 3) many other related things wrapped in Nell’s sparkling writing style that anyone would be plain crazy to miss. P.S. Hey, Crystal, if you’re reading this: Remember how you used to slink around the C-VILLE office while Nell was working? You were waaaay more scared of us than we were of you.
