Here's what the humans have to say about me:
(Miss Moo is not in our rescue. This is a courtesy post for a local foster.)
WHAT IS YOUR NAME?
Moo Deng (aka Miss Moo)
ARE YOU A GIRL OR A BOY?
Girl
HOW OLD ARE YOU?
Around 8 years old
WHAT BREED ARE YOU?
Pit bull mix
HOW MUCH DO YOU WEIGH?
Around 50 pounds
WHAT DO YOU LOOK LIKE?
I am a grey and white senior angel queen.
WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO EAT?
Blueberries and raspberries, carrots, and anything with chicken!
WHAT KIND OF PERSONALITY DO YOU HAVE?
I am very laid back and easy going. I can be playful and enjoy toys, but my preference is to be lounging on the couch snuggling with my people. I am silly, curious, sweet, and love meeting new people.
DESCRIBE YOUR PERFECT DAY:
My perfect day begins with breakfast followed by a nice calm walk. Then, I would like to lay on the couch, snuggle, and nap until I have recovered from my walk. I would enjoy a trip to the pet store to pick out a new toy, where I can come home and promptly rip out all of the fluff. On the way home, I will insist that I get to hang my head out the window to feel the wind. I might also like a ride through the car wash. After play time, I will be ready for dinner and another calm walk. After my walk, I will be ready to relax for the rest of the night, snuggling on the couch with my people. It doesn’t take much to make this girl feel loved!!
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE TOY?
Anything fluffy and anything with a squeaker!
DO YOU KNOW ANY TRICKS?
I can sit and stay!
WHAT SCARES YOU?
My only fear is not finding a forever home.
HAVE YOU BEEN AROUND CHILDREN? DO YOU LIKE THEM?
I love children! I have encountered many kids on walks and I always greet them with tail wags and kisses. I have no issues with kids.
DO YOU LIKE CATS?
I am not cat safe! I have a strong prey drive.
HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT OTHER DOGS?
I can be selective. I am most comfortable with male dogs my size or bigger. My foster parents avoid small dogs that could be misconstrued for prey, and I have had issues with female dogs in the past. I am also perfectly comfortable being the only dog in the house.
IF YOU COULD BE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD, WHERE WOULD IT BE?
On a comfy couch with lots and lots of blankets!
HOW IS YOUR HEALTH?
I am in great health! I am a senior girl, so I can be low energy sometimes, but no health issues!
WHO DO YOU LIVE WITH YOUR FOSTER HOME AND WHO IS YOUR CLOSEST COMPANION?
In my foster home, I live with two humans! My favorite companion is my foster mom, Nicole. My foster dad is cool, but not as cool as mom.
WHERE DO YOU HANG OUT WHEN YOU ARE HOME ALONE?
When I am home alone, I stay in the living room. Foster mom closes all doors so I cannot access other rooms. I typically hang on the couch while they are away!
WHERE DO YOU SLEEP?
I sleep on the couch in the living room and sometimes, if I am lucky, I sleep in bed with my foster parents. I can be a bed hog though. I am very respectful and sleep wherever they ask me to, even if it’s the floor.
DO YOU LIKE WALKING ON A LEASH?
I love walks and walk great on the leash. I love to explore and sniff.
DO YOU HAVE ANY "NOT-SO-GREAT" HABITS THAT WE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT? FOR INSTANCE, DO YOU BARK OR DIG IN THE YARD?
I can be mischievous when home alone. I have pulled a box of fruit snacks and a bag of tortillas off the counter. On both occasions, I ripped the packages open and ate what was inside. This is easily avoided if food is kept out of my reach when I am home alone. Otherwise, no bad habits that anyone has identified!
ARE YOU HOUSE TRAINED? (MEANING DO YOU GO POTTY OUTSIDE)
I am house trained and know to potty outside!
DO YOU LIKE WATER?
I love water and love to annoy my foster parents with my wet drippy snout after I drink it.
WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT YOUR FOSTER FAMILY?
I love that my foster family buys me toys, gives me snuggles and attention, and makes me feel safe. I also love when they take me on adventures and let me hang my head out the window in the car.
HOW DO PEOPLE GET IN TOUCH WITH YOUR FOSTER FAMILY?
If anyone has questions about Miss Moo, they can text her foster mom, Nicole Vanek at 219-743-5891, or message us on TikTok! Moo’s TikTok is “Miss Moo”https://www.tiktok.com/@miss.moo63?_t=ZT-8xZ1mbKYMVZ&_r=1
⭐️ Miss Moo is located in the Sacramento area but her fosters are willing to drive her (within reason) to the perfect home. Moo’s adoption fee is $175. ⭐️

Additional adoption info
*** You MUST live within the immediate Sacramento area which includes Sacramento County, parts of Placer and parts of ElDorado County.
ADOPTION PROCESS:
The first step in the adoption process is the completion of our online adoption application. You will be able to fill it out online and email it back to us. If you have any questions regarding your application, we are here to answer them. If you do not live within our specified area, your application will not be reviewed.
The second step is the home check. Our main priority in this step is insuring that your yard is 100% secure - there can be no loose boards or gaps in your fencing. If your dog is going to be spending anytime outside while you are at work or away from home, we ask that you have adequate shade or shelter from the elements.Before we schedule a home check, we may ask you to send us photos of your yard/fencing to get an idea of where the dog will be living. If you have any hesitation or questions about our yard check, please see our section on "How to Prepare for a Home Check."
The last step in the adoption process is the meet and greet. This is where we meet with you and any existing pets to ensure proper introductions are made. We want to make sure everyone gets along. Once all introductions are made, and everyone gets along, your rescue dog is yours to adopt.
Please note that there is no pressure involved, and if a situation that cannot be resolved arises, we will always take our dog back. Also, be aware that there is an acclimation period for each dog and every dog is different. It can take a few days or a few weeks for your new dogs to settle in. We will assist in any way possible, including referring our trainer to come work with you and the dog.
ADOPTION PREREQUISITES:
All of our dogs are rescues, meaning they have already needed help in some way, and will only go to homes where they will live a "CHARMED LIFE." All of our adoptive dogs will be indoor dogs with outdoor privileges. We believe that dogs are family members, and should be allowed to sleep indoors.The only time they should be kept outdoors is if the weather permits. Any applications looking for an outdoor only dog will be denied. All current pets in your home need to be spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and on heartworm preventive. Out of area adoptions are within reason and on a case-by-case basis.
HOW TO PREPARE FOR A HOME CHECK:
Walk the perimeter of your yard. Take notes on the condition of your fence. Are there any loose boards or gaps under any sections of you fencing? If yes, these are easy fixes. You can nail any loose board back into place, and you can fill any gaps with pavers and gravel Do you have a lock on your gate? If not, please purchase one prior to your home check. Is there adequate shade or shelter for your new dog if it is going to be left outdoors while you're at work? Do you have anything hazardous in your yard, i.e. nails sticking out, chemicals left out, etc? Do you have a cat? If so, does your cat have a high spot it can retreat to if being chased? Are your garbage cans located somewhere near a gate where a dog can jump into them to get out? If so please move them. Please address these issues prior to our visit.
ADOPTION FEES:
All of our dogs will be spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped prior to being adopted. Our adoption fees are considered to be donations. All donations from adoption go right back into our rescue account, allowing us to continue to help dogs in need. At the bare minimum, the cost to properly vet a dog is $100. But some of the dogs we take on are medical cases, which can cost several thousand dollars. Because of this, we ask the following adoption fees:
$500 for puppies, which are any dogs under a year old
$300 for most adult dogs aged 1 year or older.
(French/English Bulldogs fees are significantly higher and are explained on our website.)

More about this rescue
NorCal Bully Breed Rescue (NBBR) is an all volunteer, non-profit organization dedicated to helping needy animals in our community. While our focus is on "bully breeds," we don't discriminate and will very often help dogs of any breed, provided we have a foster home available. We take in dogs from local shelters with a focus on those with medical challenges and those whose behavior is declining due to the stress of the shelter environment. These are the dogs most often overlooked and in need of the most help.
NBBR is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation, our tax ID # is 46-3665141. Your donations are fully tax deductible and fund our operations and help pay our vet expenses.
NBBR is dedicated to reducing the number of homeless pets through the spaying/neutering of all of our rescued dogs and through education on the importance of spaying/neutering all animals. We provide information on low cost or no cost spay/neuter clinics in our surrounding areas.
Each dog that comes to us has been temperament tested, updated on shots, spayed/neutered and microchipped. Many of our dogs have also been treated for various medical conditions including mange, heartworms, broken bones, neurological issues, and many others. One of our dogs can take anywhere from one month to one year to get ready for adoption and the cost for the dogs we take on can range from $100 to several thousand dollars. We take on dogs from shelters that are set to be euthanized for various reasons, including simply that they've been there too long, or they have a medical condition that precludes them from adoption to the public, making them "rescue only." This means only a rescue can pull them from the shelter, but also leaves us to be responsible for any costs to be incurred by said rescue dog.
We also take on strays and incur the cost of having them vaccinated, spayed, neutered and microchipped. We will help dogs who owners can no longer provide care by networking their dog, provided the owner can continue to house the dog. We insure a safe house for all of the dogs that we take on and provide all needed supplies for the foster homes that care for them until they are to be adopted. We also insure that they never end up in a shelter, running the risk of being euthanized due to lack of space or due to becoming "aggressive" caused by the stress of being in a shelter environment.
