Story
Rehoming a Protective Pit Bull – Experienced Home Only We are looking for an experienced, adult-only home for our pit bull who needs firm structure, clear boundaries, and ongoing professional training. He is deeply loyal and affectionate with his owners and forms strong bonds with the people he trusts. In the home, he is loving, attentive, and thrives on routine and leadership. His challenge is protective behavior, which has resulted in multiple bite incidents. Because of this, he is not suitable for homes with children, visitors, or frequent guests. He would do best with: • An experienced handler familiar with strong, protective breeds • A low-traffic household • Someone committed to professional behavioral training • Secure fencing and controlled environments This decision is heartbreaking, but safety — for him and for others — has to come first. We are committed to finding the right fit, not just any placement, and will be selective to ensure his future success.

Story
Bullet is a very good dog. He just needs someone who will guide him and give him all the love he deserves in the world. He's very friendly and excitable but he is very sweet. He is good on house training and well with kids and adults. He was attacked once by a German Sheppard in a previous home and that should be known he wasnt the aggressor. But all in all, he really needs a caring home with lots of love where he can flourish. I'm moving and currently don't have the resources to keep him, so I'm asking please help me find him a good home that will cherish him.

Story
Eve was found in a rough neighborhood in Jacksonville, FL in a field. She was in a broken crate without a tray, covered with a tarp and cinder blocks. She had zero protection from the elements and was only bring fed sometimes with zero regular access to water. At that time temps were going down to 32°, so she was really suffering. We didn't hesitate to talk to the neighborhood guys "caring" for her and offered her safety in our Rescues care. They agreed and she's been with us since. She's very sweet, crate trained, leash trained and has done well with older kids and other dogs at adoption events in her own crate. She loves car rides and sticking her head out the window. She does amazingly at our adoption events with all kinds of people. Sizes and ages. She's so sweet and gentle! She really deserves to be spoiled for the of her life.
