I love Pit Bulls. I know a lot of people don't, but I can't help it. Not only are they gorgeous and adorable, but they are the most loyal and loving dogs I've ever met. I've decided that when I get a house, I want one, so I'll be adopting one from a rescue or shelter. Adopt not shop.

Did you know that Pitties were once considered to be "Nanny dogs". They were loved for their love and calmness with children.

On a very real note...
Here are some lovely babies looking for homes.
If you'd like to adopt them, please let me know and I'd be happy to put you in touch, or help in any way I can. I'd love to see them all happy and healthy in new homes. Arrangements for travel can be figured out too in most cases. :)
Bazzle
He's a sweet boy who has been at the rescue too long.
Does well with some other dogs. Passed all behavior assesments with flying colors.
Narcy
She's a sweet little girl that likes to make faces at the camera.
Blaze
A curious unaltered male dog.
Diamond
How can you not love this face? She looks so friendly!
Mulligan
Sweet boy who is very good with other dogs.
The shelter has been using him to help influence the behavior of other dogs.
Red
Isn't he so dapper?
He's really smart and knows quite a few commands already.
Ziggy
Ziggy is just a puppy and has been growing up at the shelter.
That is sooo sad!
Lexi
Isn't her coloring so pretty?
Connie
Such a pretty girl.
Camry
Camry is a playful girl, look how cute she is!
Petey
Who wouldn't love to come home to that face every day?
Tiger
Look at that unique coloring?
Flash
I love his big floppy ears.
Nico
I love his amazing colors!
Atlas
Look at those ears!
Darcy
She looks like such a sweetie!
Bat Man
Don't those eyes just say take me home?
Deuce
Another one with great coloring!
Alex
I just want to love on his sad little face.
Rex
Rex is a calm and patient boy.
Someone docked his ears (crewel) but he still loves people!
Connie
Look at that tongue, you have to know she loves people!

All of these babies are available through the SLCo Pit Crew.
I want one so much!
What the hell, I'll probably get one when I get a house. :)

OMG, I want to bring them all home!
ReplyDeleteI love them all, such beautiful creatures. One of my best friends just adopted a young male & female, they go get fixed next week! :) And Ohio removed them from the vicious list today! Score one for the pit bulls!
ReplyDeleteXoXo
Awwwww, these puppies are too cute! I hope that they all find wonderful home! One of my good friends has a lovely black and white pit that we all adore so much! She's the best dog ever!
ReplyDeletei LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE pitts and pitt mixes. our big pup lola looks exactly like the brindle ones up there and she is the most loyal loving dog anyone could evver have! i hope you get one (or 2..or 3...) soon :)
ReplyDeleteThey are SO adorable! Those faces....that dog would get whatever it wants from me! :-) And you're right, way too many need homes to not adopt one. Thanks for stopping over and linking up at Flip Flops and Pearls! Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteI love this post and I love that you are going to adopt there are so many animals out there that need a good home! I have a pit and he is my baby.
ReplyDeleteyou definitely need to adopt one of these little cuties when ya get your new place. i would love to have a dog cause i have a big backyard but i couldn't do that to piper and it really is a lot of responsibility. and i think pitbulls are illegal in my city anyways gotta get some stupid permit or something.
ReplyDeletei have seen two pitbulls fight before probably one of the scairest things i've seen before. it was sad.
which one outta the group would you pick?
Some of their expressions and poses are really fun and silly!
ReplyDeleteAhh I'm going to cry. I can't look at their pictures because I will literally crack and want them all! I've had two pits (one full bred and my pup now who is half Basset Hound also and looks similar to Tiger above, except with longer ears :). I can account for them being amazing dogs. It's the assholes who mistreat them that ruin their name. Like Michael Vick. I will never get over my hatred for him.
ReplyDeleteAnyways, bless you for adopting! Rescue dogs are the best dogs because they are SO loving and appreciative of their new homes.
OK this topic clearly has a spot in my heart :) I hope you can adopt real soon!!
I was totally one of those people who had a negative view of pit bulls, but it just so happens that at the office I work in, 3 of the employees have pits and bring them in often. COMPLETELY changed my view, they are the sweetest, most loving dogs I've come across! All 3 of them are really different from each other, but are so sweet and friendly and calm. I adore each one and want to snatch them all from my coworkers haha.
ReplyDeleteAnd now I kind of want to adopt each and every single one of those cuties you posted.
We had the most amazing Pit!!! He was the best by far of all the dogs I grew up with. my daughter could literally climb all over him and take food out of his mouth...
ReplyDeleteIt was amazing cause people would judge us for having him- yet our kiddo was bit by a black lab... a "family dog"
Oh my gosh- they're all so adorable! It's such a shame that they have such a negative stigma nowadays, when they're just as loving (if not more loving) than other breeds. I love the brindle ones- they look so exotic!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I've never understood the breed's reputation. There's a very active pro-Pitties group here in Seattle that advocate, and the dogs sound so sweet. It's frustrating when people don't understand that temperment is only partly genetic- the rest is environment! If you raise an animal to be afraid all the time, it will act out- and that's true for any breed of any animal! Like Brenna, I've known sweet pit bulls, and the only negative "dog attacking my face" experience I've ever had was with an elderly lab. Go figure!
ReplyDeleteI think I am in love with Alex!!! My sweet little Westie love, Bonnie Blue, is a rescue pup. They are the best because I think they know you saved them! I hope you adopt one soon (after you get your house)....
ReplyDeletexo,
RJ
Such beautiful dogs! Makes me sad looking at all those photos, its said the rep they have got, they really could be a good dog (I have never owned one) its the owners that are at fault! Me and the hubs are planning on getting a puppy pit bull when we can! Thanks for making the awareness!!
