Sit Pretty Pit Rescue Society's adoption process
Additional adoption info
Adopters must be age 19 or older. Our adoption process begins with an adoption application followed by phone interview and home check before a meet with the adoptable dog. We ask adopters to travel to the dog. If both adopter and rescue representative are happy with the match, we facilitate a trial period to ensure a successful transition prior to finalizing the adoption. Our organization is 100% volunteer run so it can take us a few days to return emails; please don't hesitate to follow up if you don't receive a timely response.

About Sit Pretty Pit Rescue Society
Our Directors are pit bull owners and breed enthusiasts. We are passionate about these dogs! Pit bull type dogs are active, tenacious, endlessly loving, and a wonderful family pet. Their intelligence and eagerness to please makes them excel at a variety of activities, for example: obedience, Rally-O, agility, nose work, disk, fly ball, weight pull, and dock diving. Pit bull type dogs also shine as therapy dogs and service animals. Media and irresponsible ownership have damaged the breeds' reputation, perpetuating a cycle of discrimination and abuse. Pit bulls are overrepresented in the shelter system, and too often face euthanasia due to limited adoption interest and deterioration in the kennel environment.
Sit Pretty Pit Rescue Society is a non profit organization striving to prevent owner relinquishment and euthanasia of pit bull type dogs in the Okanagan Valley through public education, advocacy of responsible ownership, local shelter dog rescue, and support of pit bull guardians in our community.

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.
