Etsy's 2019 trend report has just been released and according to its annual predictions, sloths are the new unicorns.

In pin, pillow, or print form, we can't get enough of the adorable three-toed mammals known for meme-worthy slow-mo road crossings and leisurely dangling upside down from the tropical rainforest trees of South and Central America. "Much like their own unhurried movements, sloths have slowly been on the rise for a few years now, but next year, they're poised to pick up speed," says Dayna from Etsy. "Shoppers and Etsy sellers alike have gravitated to the laid-back demeanor of the sloth, a real-life embodiment of the less-hurried lifestyle many of us strive for every day." In order to celebrate that, we thought you might like this collection of sloth products on Etsy.

Pitbulls are portrayed in the media as vicious dogs. Dogs that harm. But it's how dogs are raised that create their personality. Pitbulls are like any other dog or even puppy. They are loving, loyal and protective. They are dogs. Living and breathing. So when it came to our attention of an ongoing trend #PitbullDropOff, we had to make it known in order to protect pitbulls everywhere.  

#PitbullDropOff is a disgusting trend in which absurd people, (who have lost their minds and have no morals) go and "adopt" pitbulls looking for good homes, only to be taken right away to be killed. The worst part is that it has become a Twitter Trend that yet hasn't been stopped. Many are claiming that these posts are FAKE, and a 4chan. Meaning people who are just trolling twitter users. Regardless, we are issuing a WARNING to all those with pitbulls/ pitbulls for adoption, to be aware and to really find these peoples true intentions. 

Pitbulls are kind, full-hearted and loving dogs. They deserve a loving family.
