A PLUG FOR MY BREED



Hi! My name is Max. And I’m on a  mission in life to promote Pit Bulls. MY breed.


While the number of homeless dogs continues to decline across America, thanks to the tireless work of rescue groups everywhere and the efforts of people to have their dogs spayed or neutered, the number of stray and surrendered Pit Bulls remains high. Adoption centers take in more Pit Bulls than any other type of dog. One in every four dogs brought to the shelters is a Pit Bull or Pit Bull mix. Pit Bulls also tend to stay the longest at adoption centers waiting for a place to call home.

Everyone everywhere (even those whoi have never owned a Bully Breed) can commit to helping Pit Bulls through programs specifically designed to create positive change for these misrepresented dogs.

Owner outreach programs are designed to decrease relinquishment of Pit Bulls by supporting owners and providing resources to meet their needs including behavior training and home ownership insurance solutions.

Humane Education programs are designed to debunk myths associated with Pit Bulls and elevate the status of Pit Bulls in our communities everywhere.

Adoption centers must become committed to increasing Pit Bull adoptions and finding responsible homes for Pit Bulls that come through their doors.

You can play a BIG part in this simply by writing letters and (if possible) sending donations to rescues, shelters and SPCA programs in your area.

Speaking as a Bully myself, we are not mean dogs, though some irresponsible owners have trained their Pits to be so. We are as loving as any breed you could ever own. And we are a life worth saving. Won't you help us?



Till Next Week,
 Max
