Because there are so many American Pit Bull
Terrier's in need of responsible loving homes the opportunities for them
are limited. If you are experiencing a behavioral problem perhaps professional
help may make the difference and keep your dog at home. Seek professional
assistance, your problem may be easy to solve. Contact a behaviorist or
a trainer familiar with the breed.
If your problem is circumstantial, re-homing is best done from
your home. Try a good picture and history detailing your dogs virtues
and challenges and post it at your local vets, pet stores, feedstores,
and on Pit Bull
Rescue Central. Talk to friends and family. Do a thorough
check of a new home and family and other pets. We recommend that you review
our adoption application and use it as
a basis for evaluating potential adopters and their homes.Do not re-home
without spaying or neutering before placement.
When you can no longer keep your dog or re-home him yourself you need
to be realistic about his fate in a traditional shelter, a no-kill shelter,
or a rescue. Inform yourself - visit the facility consider his quality
of life (and possible death) for the time it may take for him to be re-homed
and be realistic about the likely outcome. When you have exhausted all
possibilities of quality of life and a new home consider the Animal Farm
Foundation Give a Dog His Day
program and see your pet through his final journey yourself.
