As dog lovers and huge fans of National Geographic Channel’s “Dogtown,” you can probably imagine how excited Dan and I were when the cast got behind our “I’m Tired of Animal Cruelty” bracelet. They’re all wearing them!

Not only that, but they recently wore them in a photo shoot for the show with some of the 22 “Vicktory” dogs they rescued and rehabilitated from Michael Vick’s abuse. Even the dogs are sporting cool “I’m Tired of Animal Cruelty” dog collars that we made especially for them. “Dogtown” takes place at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary, our charity beneficiary for the “I’m Tired of Animal Cruelty” bracelets. We wanted to share some of the great photos from the shoot.

We were so excited to learn that many of the cast members of this season’s “Dancing with the Stars” are “I’m Tired of…” bracelet fans! In fact, in his last two performances, Lance Bass was wearing his “I’m Tired of Alzheimer’s” bracelet on camera. Brooke Burke has three of the bracelets, including “I’m Tired of Alzheimer’s,” “I’m Tired of Child Abuse” and “I’m Tired of Autism.” Kim Kardashian has “I’m Tired of Cancer” and Toni Braxton actually wears two of the “I’m Tired of Autism” bracelets. Others include Misty May Treanor, Shannon Elizabeth and Ted McGinley. So cool!
