Our goal is to rescue and place our dogs in loving homes. In addition, we strive to make sure our dogs serve as ambassadors for the breed changing misconceptions in the minds of the uneducated. Lastly, we will also be focusing on helping to ban BSL laws.
Principle #1: First and foremost, we receive many applications on some dogs. This allows us to be selective to ensure that our dogs are going to a perfect home. If you are not chosen to adopt, please do not be angry, we work in the best interests of the dogs, and we know what they need best. This doesn’t mean you don’t have a good home. It just means there is a better fit in our applicant base. Principle #2: Not all homes are right for rescues, especially pitbulls. Each application is put through a rigorous review process. which may take some time. It must meet several important criteria through multiple phases of review. If application is approved a home visit and if applicable a meet and greet with resident animals will be scheduled.
