Former actor, entertainment guru and pit bull rescuer Shorty Rossi has lofty ideals, a tough attitude and an entertainment industry Rolodex to help his cause. And he's gathered together three friends/employees; Ronald, Ashley and Sebastian, to take on the gargantuan task of rescuing, rehabbing and training the most misunderstood of dogs—pit bulls.
Shorty, a workaholic with a devilish sense of humor and quick temper, balances two jobs—running Shortywood Productions, a Hollywood talent management company for little people, as well as Shorty’s Rescue, his pit bull rescue group. www.shortywood.com
Shorty, aptly named, and his three cohorts happen to be little people with the biggest hearts for these adorable dogs, who often are bigger than they are. Pit Boss follows the everyday drama and joy of these buddies and business partners as they hit the streets of Los Angeles in their fight to overcome stereotypes — for themselves and the pit bulls they save.

When we asked Larry why PetExpoUSA and its causes are so dear to his heart he responded, "I have had dogs and can’t stand to see dogs them abused and without homes. They are full of love and loyalty and it’s so sad when they don’t have a place for it. I will be there in support and anxious to see how the event plays out." Come meet Larry at PetExpoUSA.

An enthusiastic Shaffer said, "I’m really looking forward to getting back out in the community now with Chopper, after being away for the past 11 months." So look for Mark and Chopper the Biker Dog out in the community in the coming days, months and years to come. The torch has been passed, and the spirit of Bandit The Biker Dog lives on in Chopper.

Linda Blair and WorldHeart Foundation at PetExpoUSA."I believe any companion animal is a gift," Blair said. "I believe animals are angels on earth and they rely on us for protection, as do children."Blair purchased the Acton property a couple of years ago so she would have a place to house the up to 50 dogs she is licensed to keep at any time for her rescue operation.On a tour of the property, dogs greeted the animal advocate with wagging tails and the occasional bark as she walked past. She will be speaking on behalf of the animals she helps each day.
