Born Again Pit Bull Rescue (BAPBR)'s adoption process

Additional adoption info

Please keep in mind that BAPBR is a relationship-oriented rescue with a deep commitment to supporting our dogs before, during and after the adoption process. Due to the level of support we give our dogs and adopters, normally we do not adopt outside our local Portland/Vancouver area.

Dogs that are "Courtesy Listings" will vary, as they are not BAPBR dogs and sometimes do not have a location restriction.

About Born Again Pit Bull Rescue (BAPBR)

"Our mission"

Born Again Pit Bull Rescue (BAPBR) strives to improve the lives of Pit Bull Terriers, advocating for these animals who cannot speak for themselves.

"Who we are"

BAPBR is a 501(C)(3) nonprofit organization located in Portland, Oregon. We are a family of volunteers dedicated to helping local Pit Bull Terriers and their guardians.

We are funded solely, and supported by, the generosity of individuals and corporations in our community. All of our dogs are located in approved foster homes around the Portland/Vancouver metro area. BAPBR does not have a physical building and does not have set hours of operation.

"What we do"

*We partner with crowded animal welfare agencies to create much needed kennel space for incoming dogs by transferring primarily Pit Bull Terriers out of those facilities and into our foster program

*We network with local shelters to raise awareness about the number of Pit Bull Terriers who are in need of homes

*We set our dogs and their new guardians up for success, matching families with the right canine companion to enjoy a shared lifestyle

*We support our adopters for life by providing on-going support, training, and resources

*We combat pet overpopulation and provide financial assistance for spay/neuter services to local pet guardians through our “Snip Your Pit” (SYP) Program

*We strive to eliminate breed discriminatory legislation and unfair prejudices created through misinformation

*We advocate responsible pet guardianship across all dog breeds in the community, recognizing that it is the only way we will attain equality and compassion for all dogs

*We give back to the community by helping other non-profit organizations achieve their goals

*We educate the public about Pit Bull Terriers in order to change current perceptions

*We support local guardians of Pit Bull Terriers by providing a variety of services to help them care for their beloved pets

Born Again Pit Bull Rescue (BAPBR)'s adopted pets

Adopt a Pet is the easiest way for you to search for a new pet in Portland, OR.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.

What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
