My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Kodiak!

Kodiak is a handsome Boxer-Pitt mix, weighing in at a healthy 80 lbs and full of love. At 4 years old, he’s the perfect balance of playful and gentle. Kodiak truly believes he’s a lap dog—don’t be surprised if he tries to snuggle right up with you!
Three years ago, Kodiak was rescued from a shelter in heartbreaking condition, weighing only 47 lbs with every rib and his backbone visible. With care and love, and plenty of peanut butter, he’s transformed into the happy, healthy pup he is today.

Kodiak’s favorite things:
Peanut butter treats
Ear rubs (his absolute favorite!)
Running and playing at doggie daycare

He’s a social butterfly—great with other dogs, cats, and children—and has never shown aggression. In fact, Kodiak has never even barked!

He thrives in environments where he can play and interact, so a home with other dogs and/or kids would be ideal. Kodiak is loving, loyal, and playful, and he deserves a family who can give him the attention he craves.

Unfortunately, due to frequent travel, his current owner hates having to board him so often and wants to find him a home where he’ll be surrounded by love every day.

If you’re looking for a gentle giant who will melt your heart, Kodiak is your guy!

Kodiak is participating in The Love Pit's iRehome program, so ongoing care and custody are provided by their foster. All behavior and medical information is provided by their caretaker, and TLP encourages all adopters to verify the information with their caretaker prior to adoption.

Additional adoption info

Adopting from The Love Pit means gaining a family member. It means gaining a network of pit bull advocates, ready to support you and provide you with all of the resources we can. Most importantly, adopting from The Love Pit saves lives. When you adopt, you're saving the life of your own dog, opening space in their foster home for another shelter dog in need, and creating space in the shelter kennel for a dog whose life would have otherwise been on the line. Your thanks for all the good you've done? Lots of love and pit bull kisses to enjoy for years to come.

Go meet their pets

We have monthly adoption events at different locations in Dallas and Fort Worth which are announced on our social media pages and will also be posted on our website.

We will also set up an appointment with you to meet the dog of your choosing.

More about this rescue

We are a foster/volunteer based 501c3 nonprofit dog rescue in Dallas, Texas. Our mission is to reduce the number of homeless pit bull type dogs in shelters and on the streets through rescue, rehabilitation, education, and advocacy.

Our goal is to educate the public about a breed that often falls victim to breed specific legislation, discrimination, and cruelty and promote responsible pet ownership through spay/neuter initiatives, vaccinations, and training resources.
