A Voice for the Voiceless
Inspired by Dexter’s unwavering spirit and resilience, Mark founded East Coast Bully Advocates, an organization dedicated to challenging stereotypes and promoting the welfare of misunderstood breeds like Dexter’s. Through advocacy and education, they seek to dispel misconceptions and foster compassion for all animals.
