Shelters around the United States are overcrowded with American Pit Bull Terriers, American Staffordshire Terriers, Staffordshire Bull Terriers, and Pit Bull mixes and it is a big problem. These dogs need a 2nd chance, and a lot of them never get it. They are mostly victims of bad owners, and it is not fair that their lives are cut short because of this. When you adopt a dog from a rescue or shelter you save a life. If you can not adopt there are many other things you can do to help:
*
Make a Donation
*
Donate your time to socialize and play with the dogs
*
Take dogs to obedience classes
*
Wash and Groom Dogs
*
Provide Transportation
*
Coordinate Fundraisers
*
Donate Dog items
*
Become a Foster Parent (temporary housing)
*
Sponsor a Dog
*
Assist with Home Checks
