We rescue and rehabilitate dogs who are at risk in overcrowded shelters, including many who have been victims of cruelty and dog-fighting, and then place them in permanent homes. We also advocate for pit bulls through educational and outreach programs and work to build a community that supports the bond between dogs and people.
Either before or after the first meeting, you should fill out our adoption application, available below. Please make sure to fill it out completely and accurately, including phone numbers for references. If you don’t know about your landlord’s pet policies, including weight and breed restrictions, please check before you apply. Our adoption fee is $175 for adult dogs, $200 for puppies (less than 1 yr old). The adoption fee includes spay/neuter, age-appropriate vaccinations, micro-chipping, a heartworm test, and up to date heartworm preventatives. Many of our dogs come to us with medical issues, ranging from injuries to heartworm to demodex, and we usually spend far more than the adoption fee on each dog. We are all volunteers and we don’t make any money from this operation. Adoption fees go right back into buying food, paying vet bills, and purchasing supplies such as crates and beds.
