First they were “nanny dogs,” then they were “vicious,” now they are just like any other dog. The pit bull is now welcome in Cincinnati, and dog owners around town are ready to celebrate. Come spike the football and show off your newly legal dog to the rest of Cincinnati.

Remember: This event is supposed to display the best of the pit bull! This is every pit bull owner's chance to show Cincinnati the “vicious” rule was justly repealed. Dogs must be at least six months old, up-to-date on vaccinations, licensed, and healthy. The parade will start at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday May 30 at the West Grove area of Fountain Square, 520 Vine St., Downtown.
